  • Patent number: 12117389
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an optical flow cell for a measuring device, having an input light guide with a light exit surface, an output light guide with a light entrance surface, said input light guide and output light guide being integrated with a holder to form an optical flow cell, and wherein the holder extends along a first axis and has a through hole for receiving a flow of a sample fluid, said through hole being transversal to said first axis, and the input light guide and output light guide further are arranged in said holder so that the light exit surface and the light entrance surface extend into said through hole and are arranged to be in optical alignment with each other and at a first distance from each other. The invention also relates to a measuring device having at least one optical flow cell.

  • Patent number: 11499913
    Abstract: A measuring device for measuring the absorbance of a substance in at least one solution provided in at least two flow cells of the measuring device, wherein said measuring device comprises: —a light source transmitting a first light ray; —said at least two flow cells; —an optical arrangement comprising at least two semi-transparent mirrors with different transmission properties, said optical arrangement being arranged for dividing the first light ray coming from the light source into separate light parts, one for passing each flow cell and one for entering directly after the optical arrangement a reference detector; and —one detector provided after each flow cell for detecting light having passed through the flow cells.
