Abstract |
A half-liter proportional diluter using positive pressure was designed and tested. Its primary siphons are activated by a pulse of pressure instead of by a partial vacuum as in conventional diluters. This method eliminated the need for venturi tubes, vacuum manifolds, and individual water blocks. Pressure can be supplied by air pumps, air cylinders, or air compressor lines. The diluter's advantages are ease of construction, calibration, compact size, and rapid cleaning. Unit cost is approximately $250.00. |
