WIPEABLE CONDUCTIVITY PROBE AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME
摘要
<p>A conductivity sensor is disclosed that comprises a forked electrode support (12) that includes a first opposing arm (16) and a second opposing arm (17) spaced apart by a slot (14). Both the first arm and the second arm include a plurality of electrodes (18,19,28,29) embedded in each arm. The first and second arms and the slot are capable of retaining a volume of fluid within the volume defined by the arms and the slot such that the conductivity of the fluid in the slot can be determined. The conductivity sensor is wipeable by a reciprocating wiper assembly (20) positioned adjacent the forked electrode support such that the wiper element (22) can travel through the slot and remove contaminants from the slot and the plurality of electrodes in each of the first and second arms. Also disclosed are methods of making the conductivity sensor.</p>
