1. A conductivity monitoring system for continuously monitoring the conductivity of a fluid flowing into and through a housing comprising:

  • a. indicator meansb. at least a common, a first and a second electrode disposed within said housing in contact with said fluid, said common electrode being positioned closer to said first electrode than to said second electrode, whereby the electrical conductivity between said common electrode and said first electrode will be different than the electrical conductivity between said common electrode and said second electrode;

    c. means connected to said electrodes to approximate a constant current source for energizing said electrodes to provide substantially the same current flow through them.d. means for detecting the difference in the conductivity between said common and first electrodes and between said common and second electrodes and providing a difference voltage output signal representing the value of the conductivity of said fluid; and

    e. means for coupling said signal to said indicator means to operate said indicator means.
