Abstract: A particulate detection system (1) includes detection section (10), compressed air source (300) which includes compressor (301) for producing compressed air AK, compressor drive circuit (320) and control means (100). The detection section includes a gas jetting source (11). A drive condition for jetting air AR from jetting hole (31N) at a first flow rate Q1 is defined as a first drive condition JK1, and a drive condition for jetting the air AR at a second flow rate Q2 smaller than the first flow rate Q1 is defined as a second drive condition JK2. The control means includes first instruction means S5 for driving the compressor under the first drive condition JK1 when the quantity of the particulates S is detected, and second instruction means S6 for driving the compressor under the second drive condition JK2 when the quantity of the particulates S is not detected.

Abstract: A particulate sensor including a sensor unit (300) having an ion generation section (611, 361, 322); an electric charge section (612) for electrically charging at least portion of particulates S using ions PI; a capture section (616, 617, 316, 326, 362) for trapping at least portion of the ions PI not used for electrically charging the particulates S; and a sensor ground section (340, 310v, 330v3) connected to the capture section and having a first floating potential corresponding to the amount of the ions PI trapped by the capture section. The sensor unit can detect the amount of the particulates S in the gas on the basis of the electric potential of the sensor ground section. The sensor ground section is covered with insulating ceramic at that outer portion of the sensor unit which comes into contact with the gas.

Abstract: A particulate detection system (1) for detecting the amount of particulates S in a gas under measurement EG includes a detection section (10), a drive circuit (210, 240), and a drive control section (225). The detection section includes a first potential member (31, 12, 13) maintained at a first potential PV1, a second potential member (14, 51, 53) maintained at a second potential PVE, PV3, and an insulating member (121, 77, 76) disposed between the first and second potential members. The system includes insulation test means (215, S3, 245, S5) for testing the degree of insulation between the first and second potential members. The drive control section includes drive permission/prohibition determination means S4, S6 for determining, on the basis of the degree of insulation tested by the insulation test means, whether to permit the drive of the detection section by the drive circuit.
