Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
125 words
A NEW AND IMPROVED DEVICE FOR DETERMINING THE OXYGEN CONTENT OF GAS COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING OXYGEN, WHICH COMPRISES: A FIRST ANALYSIS CELL; FIRST ELECTRICAL HEATING MEANS DISPOSED WITHIN SAID CELL; A TEMPERATURESENSING MEANS POSITIONED ADJACENT TO SAID FIRST ELECTRICAL HEATING MEANS; A SECOND ANALYSIS CELL; A SECOND ELECTRICAL HEATING MEANS DISPOSED WITHIN SAID SECOND ANALYSIS CELL; MEANS FOR SUPPLYING A MAGNETIC FIELD ADJACENT TO ONE OF SAID ELECTRICAL HEATING MEANS; MEANS FOR CONNECTING SAID HEATING MEANS INTO AN ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT MEANS FOR DETERMINING THE RESPECTIVE POWER CONSUMPTIONS OF SAID HEATING MEANS AS A MEASURE OF SAID OXYGEN CONTENT; AND MEANS CONNECTED TO SAID TEMPERATURE-SENSING MEANS TO AUTOMATICALLY REGULATE THE POWER SUPPLIED SAID HEATING MEANS SO THAT THE GAS TEMPERATURE AT SAID TEMPERATURESENSING ELEMENT REMAINS SUBSTANTIALLY CONSTANT.
