More Information
Summary:A method and apparatus for determining particle contamination of a process fluid is disclosed herein. In one example, a fluid resistivity measurement probe is provided. The system includes an upstream fluid conduit, a downstream fluid conduit, and a measuring section. The measuring section has a metal rod, and a ground electrode. The ground electrode surrounds and is coaxial with the metal rod. The upstream fluid conduit is coupled to a first end of the ground electrode. The downstream fluid conduit is coupled to a second end of the ground electrode. The metal rod and the ground electrode define a space therebetween. The space flows a fluid from the upstream fluid conduit to the downstream fluid conduit.
