A cavity resonator system for measuring EM properties of the contents of a pipe portion comprises a primary resonator and a secondary resonator each with the same configuration comprising a conductive casing that defines a cavity and has openings for receiving a pipe portion, insulator material disposed inside the cavity, and antennae for generating and detecting a resonant EM field inside the cavity. In addition, the secondary resonator comprises at least one conductive screening ring that extends around the location occupied by a pipe portion for screening the interior of the ring from the field generated inside the cavity of the secondary resonator. By combining measures of parameters of the field from both resonators, the system may be used to generate a measure representative of EM properties of the contents of the pipe portion that is compensated for variation in the EM properties of the insulator material. |
