摘要:
A long-life conductivity sensor system and method that is embeddable or immersible in a medium. The conductivity sensor system includes at least a housing with an enclosing wall that defines an interior volume and that has at least one aperture through the wall; a pair of electrodes protruding through the aperture into a medium surrounding the sensor housing; and conductivity sensing electronics contained within the sensor housing interior volume and connected to the pair of electrodes. The conductivity sensing electronics include a galvanostat connected to the electrodes for inducing discrete constant current pulses between the electrodes creating a transient voltage signal between the electrodes; and a high-speed voltmeter/A-D Converter connected to the electrodes for measuring the transient voltage signal between the electrodes, the transient voltage signal being a function of the conductivity of the medium surrounding the sensor housing.

A salt sensor is disclosed which is portable and easily handled by a person at a restaurant or in his home for determining the sodium content of the food or beverage he is about to consume. The salt sensor includes a uniquely designed contact top which is electronically connected to a circuit which generates an AC signal. The strength of the signal transmitted across the contact tips is directly proportional to the conductivity of the food or beverage being tested and is, accordingly, registered on a display panel located on the body of the salt sensor.

A device for detecting cation saturation in an ion exchange filter includes electrodes disposed in an interchanging resin. One of the electrodes receives power from a source of supply, while the other electrode picks up a cation potential signal and through a tracking circuit comprising an operational system informs a comparator circuit having a fixed threshold valve which operates depending on the value emitted by the tracking circuit, activating a luminous and/or acoustic alarm system, all of which is optatively activated by means of a manually operated push-button.

An apparatus to measure the pollution level of the surface of a photovoltaic module. A resistance change on the surface of a photovoltaic module is sensed to effectively measure the pollution level on the surface of the photovoltaic module and secure a proper cleaning cycle of the module during solar light power generation. The apparatus includes a glass substrate attachably mounted on the surface of a photovoltaic module. A reactive coating layer is coated on one side of the glass substrate, has a structure that pollutants are accumulated on one side surface, and causes a resistance change by contact with the pollutants. A signal processor connected to the reactive coating layer to receive a signal of the resistance change, operationally process the signal to measure a change in the resistance value caused by accumulation of the pollutants, and output a discrimination signal on pollution.
