发明名称 SENSOR SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SENSING CHLORINE CONCENTRATION
摘要 Certain embodiments include a sensor system for measuring chlorine concentration in water. The sensor system can have a manifold including one or more flow passages for receiving fluid flow. The sensor system can have a probe for measuring chlorine concentration in fluid communication with a flow passage of the one or more flow passages of the manifold. The probe can have a probe body oriented to direct incoming fluid from one or more flow passages of the manifold toward an end of the probe body. The probe can have a plurality of flutes defined on an outer surface of the probe body. The flutes can be shaped and oriented to direct fluid from the end proximal to the electrodes, back toward the one or more flow passages of the manifold.

主权项 1. A sensor system for measuring chlorine concentration in water, comprising: a manifold, comprising: a manifold inlet, in fluid communication with a fluid supply line, for receiving a manifold flow rate from a source to the manifold,a manifold outlet, in fluid communication with a fluid return line, for returning the manifold flow rate from the manifold to the source,a primary flow passage defined in the manifold and in fluid communication with the fluid supply line and the fluid return line, the primary flow passage adapted to receive a first flow rate from the manifold inlet, anda secondary flow passage defined in the manifold, the secondary flow passage adapted to receive a second flow rate from the manifold inlet, the second flow rate being substantially smaller than the first flow rate; one or more sensors in fluid communication with the primary flow passage for measuring one or more fluid properties of the fluid flowing through the primary flow passage; and a probe for measuring chlorine concentration, the probe being positioned in fluid communication with the secondary flow passage, the probe comprising: a probe body defining a hollow portion, the probe body having a first end and a second end opposite to the first end, the hollow portion adapted to receive the second flow rate proximal to the first end, the probe body shaped and oriented to direct the second flow rate toward the second end of the probe body, and from the second end of the probe body toward the secondary flow passage,a plurality of electrodes positioned in the hollow portion proximal to the second end and contacting the fluid in the hollow portion, the electrodes adapted to generate a current in response to the concentration of chlorine present in the fluid.
