Apparatus And Methods For Fluid Contamination Detection System

US Patent:
2012021, Aug 23, 2012
Filed:
Feb 20, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/400452
Inventors:
John Roper - Bonner Springs KS, US
Assignee:
AEROSOFT, LLC - Bonner Springs KS
International Classification:
G01M 15/04
US Classification:
73 2331
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for supporting a contamination detection system for determining the presence and levels of foreign particles and/or water in fluid samples, such as fuel. The apparatus may include a contamination detection system, a hollow rod, and a bypass tube. The contamination detection system may have a flush mode in which the fluid bypasses a detection monitor of the contamination detection system, flowing into the hollow rod. The contamination detection system may also have a test mode in which the fluid passes through the detection monitor, through the bypass tube and then into the hollow rod. The hollow rod may be mounted to a collection container for receiving fluid from the hollow rod. A ground wire for eliminating static build up during contamination testing may be conductively coupled with the hollow rod and may be supported on a ground wire support structure fixed to the collection container.
