  • Sensing element for use with media-preserving storage and calibration chamber
    Patent number: 12313586
    Abstract: A sensor may include a sensing element retained within a storage compartment filled with a storage medium, which may also be used as a calibration medium. The sensing element can include a sensing surface located away from the distal end of the sensing element, such that an inactive section of the sensing element can cooperate with a sealing member such as an O-ring to form part of the seal retaining the storage/calibration medium. The sensing element can be extended and retracted from the storage compartment to expose the sensing surface to a process medium, while preserving the storage medium within the storage compartment for post-measurement validation.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 21, 2018
    Date of Patent: May 27, 2025
    Assignee: Broadley-James Corporation
    Inventors: Robert J. Garrahy, Scott T. Broadley, Chang-Dong Feng, Bradley Joseph Sargent, Josh L. Rothman, Andrew John Boyce
