  • Patent number: 8901502
    Abstract: A device (1) is provided for determining at least one parameter of a medium which has a sensor device (2) and an electronic device (3). To provide such a device with a cooling system for at least a portion of its components, the sensor device (2) and/or the electronic device (3) are arranged at least partly in at least one inner space (4, 5) of a housing (6). A passage (7) borders the inner space (4, 5) and a cooling chamber (8) through which a cooling medium can flow is arranged in proximity of the passage (7).

  • Patent number: 8872133
    Abstract: A device for measuring the fluorescence of a medium having a radiation source, an emission-receiving element and an optical imaging element arranged on the sensor side of the optical imaging element, and a scattering-receiving element arranged on the sensor side of the optical imaging element and in which the radiation source, the imaging element and the emission-receiving element are aligned and configured relative to one another so that the medium present on the medium side of the imaging element can be illuminated by radiation from the radiation source, and the emission intensity of the medium radiation emitted by the medium based on fluorescence can be detected with the emission-receiving element. To provide a device for measuring the fluorescence of a medium which has an increased reliability in measuring the fluorescence, temperature compensation is performed relative to the temperature of the medium and/or at least one of the receiving elements.

  • Patent number: 8355121
    Abstract: Device for measuring at least one of diffusion, absorption and refraction of a sample, having a radiation source, at least one receiving element, an optical imaging element and a protection element, the radiation source and the receiving element being arranged on the sensor side of the optical imaging element, the protection element being arranged on the sample side of the imaging element and adjacent to the imaging element and the radiation source. A refraction radiation source and a refraction receiver are arranged on the sensor side of the imaging element and arranged relative to the imaging element so that the refraction radiation of the sample specularly reflected by the sample side interface of the protection element can essentially be received by the refraction receiver and the radiation specularly reflected by the imaging element side interface of the protection element essentially cannot be received by the refraction receiver.
