Abstract

734,578. Radiation gas analysers. STICHTING VOOR FUNDAMENTEEL ONDERZOEK DER MATERIE. Dec. 28, 1951 [Dec. 29, 1950], No. 30356/51. Class 40 (3): An infra-red gas analyser suitable for determination of the isotope ratio of stable isotopes in a gaseous mixture of the type having two branches each containing an infra-red radiator, a screen for periodically interrupting the infrared light, an absorption chamber and a receiver chamber, is provided with an amplifier and a measuring device selectively sensitive for frequency and phase for the measurement of signal derived either from a membrane condenser separating the two receiver chambers, or from microphones coupled in opposition placed one in each receiver chamber. The receiver chambers have a length of 2 to 6 mm. As shown in Fig. 1 light from infra-red radiators 1, 2 passes through apertures in a synchronously-driven disc 3 and an adjustable diaphragm 12 (to adjust the initial signal to zero), through absorption chambers 4 and 5 and receiver chambers 6 and 7, the latter pair being separated by a membrane condenser 8 and 9. The condenser plates are connected via an amplifier 10 to a phaseindicating device and a frequenoy-sensitive A.C. galvanometer 11 or a phase and frequency sensitive meter as described in " Physica," Volume XI, No. 6. For the determination of <SP>13</SP>CO 2 in the presence of <SP>12</SP>CO 2 , the .receiver chamber is filled with 52.5 per cent of <SP>13</SP>CO 2 and 47.5 per cent of <SP>12</SP>CO 2 at a pressure of 150 to 600 mm. Hg, the receiver chamber length preferably being 3 mm. The absorption chambers may be 50 to 100 mm. long and filled at a pressure of 100 to 250 mm., one with the gas to be analysed and the other with a mixture of known concentration. Instead of having two parallel arms as shown in Fig. 1, with the receiver chambers separated by a membrane condenser, the arms may be on opposite sides of the radiator and the receiver chambers provided with microphones, which are coupled in opposition.
