Abstract:
A transmitted light intensity measurement unit for measuring a concentration of fluid flowing through a duct comprises: a light source for supplying light into the duct from a light supply part on a surface of the duct; a light receiving element for receiving the light, which has been passed from the light supply part through the duct wall and the fluid inside the duct, at a light receiving part located on an opposite side in a diametrical direction of the duct relative to the light supply part, and outputs a signal indicating an intensity of the light; and a light-transmissive member disposed on at least one light path among a light pass between the light source and the light supply part and a light pass between the light receiving element and the light receiving part, abutting and closely contacting the duct wall by an elastic deformation of the duct wall.
