PCT No. PCT/AU88/00014 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 12, 1989 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 12, 1989 PCT Filed Jan. 22, 1988 PCT Pub. No. WO89/00072 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 12, 1989.A filtrate evacuation system for obtaining a solids free filtrate from a slurry. The system comprises a filter assembly (11), a detachable filter cup (17), and an extractor tube (14) which is connected to a pump (15). The cup (17) is threadedly attached to a mounting sleeve (16) to define an inner chamber (32). One end of the extractor tube (14) communicates with chamber (32) through the mounting sleeve (16), and the other end communicates with the pump (15) so that filtrate residing within the chamber may be evacuated. The cup (17) is formed of porous filtering material such as sintered metal to provide a solids free filtrate within the chamber (32). By continuously evacuating filtrate from the chamber (32), a sensing probe (12) disposed within the chamber (32) may obtain a real time measurement of a condition of the slurry. |
