Abstract
An apparatus for measuring flowable substance which has at least three microwave sensor elements arranged at separate locations in a measurement chamber in contact with the flowable substance. The sensor elements operate as at least two transmitter-receiver pairs, which transmit and receive microwave radiation via at last two paths of different lengths, through layers of dirt on the sensor elements and the flowable substance for eliminating an effect of dirt layers on the sensor elements from the measurement result. A signal processing unit has a controller which is configured to control feed of at least one substance which has an effect on the measured value of the flowable substance to the chamber on the basis of the measured value of the desired property of the flowable substance.
