摘要 |
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention include methods and devices for the electromagnetic (inductive) measurement of the conductivity of liquids by immersing a sensor into the liquid, wherein the sensor includes at least 2 toroidal cores, one of said cores carrying an excitation coil and the other core carrying an induction coil. Exemplary methods include converting the induced current at the induction coil into an alternating square-wave voltage, followed by rectification. A sample-hold circuit may be employed to avoid the transition time of the alternating square-wave current conversion. The demodulated DC voltage is proportional to the conductivity of the measured liquid.
