摘要： A gas analysis apparatus includes: a first reflector that reflects measurement light from a light emitting unit disposed outside a gas flue wall and transmitted through a sample gas. A light receiving unit outside the gas flue wall receives measurement light reflected by the first reflector. A second reflector outside the gas flue wall reflects measurement light toward the light receiving unit. A computing unit analyzes sample gas by allowing the measurement light to be reflected by the first reflector and performs correction or calibration of the gas analysis apparatus using known substances within an associated containing unit along the light path between the light emitting unit and the second reflector by allowing measurement light to be reflected by the second reflector. A switching unit outside the gas flue wall selectively removes or inserts the second reflector from the light path during component concentration analysis and correction or calibration, respectively.

摘要： The present invention relates to a self-cleaning probe for performing optical measurements in a gas or liquid flow. The probe comprises a measuring cell defining a passage for the gas or liquid to be measured to pass through, and includes minimum a first and second optical interface on opposite sides of the passage. The probe further comprises at least one optical light source emitting an optical signal and a detector for receiving an optical signal having propagated partly or fully through the gas or liquid flow from the first to the second interface. All optical interfaces are acoustically coupled to one acoustic transducer connected to a power source, adapted to produce vibrations in the frequency range of 5 kHz-1 MHz, the vibrations being substantially perpendicular to the plane of the interfaces and the acoustic energy exceeding the cavitation threshold in a liquid, so as to remove deposits on the optical interfaces.

摘要： A fiber-optic probe includes first and second optical fibers disposed in a body, a liquid sampling region between ends of the fibers and a reflector, and apertures communicating with the sampling region. The probe may be inserted in media in a vessel. Optical signals are transmitted through the first fiber, the sampling region and second fiber. The sampling region is offset from other parts of the probe so that bubbles or particulates flow out from the sampling region without being obstructed by the probe.

摘要： A method and device for measuring HIL levels in blood serum samples that are disposed in an automated, clinical chemistry analyzer. The device probe can be attached adjacent to a pipette or sample probe of the analyzer and includes fiber optic bundles and a light-reflecting surface. A cutaway portion is provided between the ends of each of the fiber optic bundles and the light-reflecting surface. One of the four fiber optic bundles is optically coupled to a light-emitting source. Each of the other three fiber optic bundles collects and filters reflected light from the reflecting surface. The light filters correspond to the optimal absorption wavelengths for one of hemoglobin, bilirubin, and triglycerides. A light intensity-measuring device is optically coupled to each of the three fiber optic bundles, to measure the intensity of the filtered, reflected light. A processing device receives output data signal from the light intensity-measuring devices; stores the data; and calculates whether a serum sample has elevated levels of one or more of HIL.

摘要： A state determination method is provided that is capable of determining at least one of the state of degradation of oil in a machine and the state of breakage of the machine with higher accuracy than conventional methods. A state determination method for determining the state of degradation of lubricating oil in a speed reducer and the state of breakage of the speed reducer is characterized by: transmitting white light emitted by a white LED through the lubricating oil, causing an RGB sensor to detect the color of the light transmitted through the lubricating oil by the white LED, and calculating the brightness of the color detected by the RGB sensor (S201); calculating a color component maximum difference that is the difference between a maximum value and a minimum value among the R value, G value, and B value of the color detected by the RGB sensor (S202); and determining the states on the basis of the brightness calculated in S201 and the color component maximum difference calculated in S202 (S203, S207).
