Static equilibrium path for measurements of dynamic flows
First Claim
Patent Images
1. An ion meter for measuring a solution with dynamic flow, comprising:
- a substrate having an interior side with an ISFET gate, and an exterior side, a reference electrode;
a circuit board bonded to at least a portion of the substrate; and
a barrier comprising the interior side of the substrate, the ISFET gate, and a portion of the circuit board;
wherein the barrier partially defines a cavity providing a static equilibrium environment for the solution; and
wherein the barrier further partially defines a fluid pathway to the exterior side of the substrate.

Abstract
A meter is adapted for measuring concentrations of a chemical in a flowing solution. The meter has a barrier that shields a sensor from the high turbulence of the solution flow. One or more membranes can be employed to selectively filter out various ions or other chemicals.
