Patent ID: 10968421

Abstract:
A method is provided for measuring parameters of state of a fluid contained in a container (10, 10′) that has a sensor carrier plate with plural sensors (S01-S10, S01′-S10′). Each sensor has a sensor head in operative contact with the interior of the container (10, 10′) and in operative contact with an external control unit (12). The external control unit (12) receives measurement data generated by the sensor heads of active sensors via their communication link and processes the data. An activation data record (24, 24′) is assigned to each sensor (S01-S10, S01′-S10′) and is recorded in a manner that is accessible for the external control unit (12). The external control unit (12) first accesses the activation data records (24, 24′), then classifies the sensors (S01-S10, S01′-S10′) as activatable or nonactivatable sensors, and subsequently activates only those sensors classified as activatable sensors.
