PCT No. PCT/EP95/01521 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 13, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 13, 1997 PCT Filed Apr. 21, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO95/29393 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 2, 1995A device is disclosed for measuring light scatter by particles (3) suspended in a carrier medium with a view to ascertaining the density, size or size distribution of the particles. The device comprises: at least one light source (8) which directs light onto a light-scattering center (2) in the carrier medium with the suspended particles (3); a receiver (4) to pick up a portion of the scattered light from the light-scattering center; and an evaluating device connected downstream of the receiver (4). The invention provides for an elongated detection chamber bounded radially around its central axis by the wall of a housing (1) which also acts as a duct for the through-flowing carrier medium with the suspended particles (3). Each light source (8) is mounted on the wall of the housing (1) and points toward the central axis of the detection chamber. The receiver is coaxial with the detection chamber and includes a sensor and a diaphragm system (6, 7) which is designed in such a way that the wall of the housing (1) surrounding the light scattering center (2) is excluded from the field of view of the sensor. |
