Claim 1
Independent Claim
126 words
AN APPARATUS FOR THE AUTOMATED DETERMINATION OF ULTRAVIOLET ABSORBANCE OF LIQUID STREAMS COMPRISING: IN COMBINATION, (1) A REACTION CHAMBER; (2) A RESERVOIR CONTAINING DILUENT FOR DILUTING THE SOLUTION STREAM FROM SAID REACTION CHAMBER; (3) A SPECTROPHOTOMER FOR MEASURING ULTRAVIOLET ABSORBANCE OF SAID SOLUTION; (4) A MIXING CHAMBER FOR MIXING SAID SOLUTION AND SAID DILUENT; (5) MEANS INCLUDING A PUMP FOR MOVING SAID SOLUTION FROM SAID REACTION CHAMBER THROUGH SAID MIXING CHAMBER TO SAID SPECTROPHOTOMETER AT SUBSTANTIALLY CONSTANT RATE, AND (6) MEANS INCLUDING A PUMP FOR MOVING DILUENT FROM SAID RESERVOIR THROUGH SAID MIXING CHAMBER IN CONTACT WITH SAID SOLUTION TO SAID SPECTROPHOTOMETER AT SUBSTANTIALLY CONSTANT RATE, WHEREBY THE ULTRAVIOLET ABSORBANCE OF THE THUS DILUTED SOLUTION IS MEASURED AND TRANSMITTED BY THE SPECTROPHOTOMETER AS THE REACTION PROCEEDS.
