Abstract
A device for determining the concentration of condensable vapor in a flowing gas stream which includes a gas evacuation conduit for receiving a sample of gas from the stream, a gas condenser in the evacuation conduit for condensing out essentially all of the condensable vapors in the sample and a gas flowmeter connected to the gas discharge of the gas condenser for determining the flow of the dry gas sample exiting the condenser. A pump is provided for withdrawing a sample of gas from the flowing gas stream and for conveying this sample at a constant, known volumetric flow through conduit and to the gas condenser and the flowmeter and a control means operatively connected to the flowmeter determines the condensable vapor concentration by comparing the flow of the dry gas sample with the known volumetric flow fed to the condenser.
