An automatic interference refractometer.
Interference refractometry is a well-established method of determining the concentration of anaesthetic agents in gas mixtures. A photo-electric detector system has been fitted to a small portable, direct-reading interference refractometer to display automatically the concentration of the agent being measured. The design of the instrument is described and two possible methods of information display are suggested.
