  • Suspended-solids meter
    Patent number: 4140007
    Abstract: In order to determine the percentage of suspended solids in a slurry, a hollow tube is extended into a slurry tank in which the solids are kept in suspension by a mixer. The tube allows the liquid within it to be isolated from the action of the mixer, so the solids settle out of the tube. A pressure difference between points at the same elevation inside and outside of the tube is measured, and this gives a percent-solids indication in which error due to dissolved solids is negligible.
