Abstract

1,216,635. Counting particles in liquids. CONTRAVES A.G. 18 March, 1969 [5 April, 1968; 7 Feb., 1969], No. 14249/69. Heading G4D. [Also in Division G1] In apparatus for counting particles in a liquid passing through an aperture by detecting changes in electrical resistance the aperture is formed in a part which is readily changeable. A chemically inert element 41 such as ruby has an aperture 40 through which the test liquid is drawn by the action of a pump 34<SP>1</SP>. A counter 68, responsive to changes of resistance between electrodes 12 and 21, becomes operative when the liquid. level intercepts a light beam 63 and stops when the level reaches 64. At this point, a control circuit 67<SP>1</SP> reverses the pump 34<SP>1</SP> which exhausts the metered liquid through a valve 37. The element 41 is mounted in a holder 4 which can be changed to use an aperture of different size. Several elements 41 may be mounted in a holder which is displaceable linearly or in rotary manner so as to select an aperture of the required size, any displacement venting the metering tube for cleaning purposes (Figs. 2, 4, 5, not shown). Instead of drawing liquid from an open vessel 5 the apparatus may have a needle (Fig. 2, not shown) for drawing from a closed vessel.
