摘要: A device for sensing and controlling optical density of a fluid. The device includes a pair of tube portions of different crosssectional areas through which the fluid flows, these tube portions having walls which are transparent and which are of equal optical characteristics. A light source is provided on one side of the tube portions for directing light transversely through the fluid which flows through the tube portions, and on the other side of the tube portions there are a pair of photocells which respetively receive the light, so that one of the photocells receives light which travels through the tube portion of larger cross-sectional area with a longer path of travel through the fluid than the light received by the other of the photocells. As the optical density of the fluid increases the differential in the light received by the photocells will also increase, and this differential can be detected for achieving desired controls. The light which reaches the photocell receiving the light which has travelled through the tube portion of smaller cross-sectional area is maintained at a constant intensity by an adjacent third photocell.
