Abstract:
1. A multi-fluid flow path containing sensing system for sensing subject media comprising: a sensor manifold comprising a housing enclosing at least a first fluid flow path and a second fluid flow path which are fluidically isolated from each other during use of the sensing system, each of said first and second fluid flow paths having a fluid inlet port and a fluid outlet port, wherein the first fluid flow path of the sensor manifold is configured to receive a liquid via a first port and to expel the liquid via a second port located vertically above the first port, and wherein a third port above both the first and seconds port is arranged to vent gas that escapes from the liquid moving from the first port to the second port; and a sensor apparatus for sensing a conductivity of subject media in each of said first and second fluid flow paths, wherein the sensor apparatus comprises a separate group of conductivity sensors associated with each of said first and second fluid flow paths, each group of conductivity sensors comprising at least two conductivity sensing probes spaced apart from one another.
