Abstract
To provide a highly reliable apparatus for measuring mercury contained in the gaseous medium, in which the outlet portof the reducing tube and the gas-liquid separator, both susceptible to deposition of stain, can be automatically cleaned to avoid reduction of the sensitivity of the measuring instrument, the apparatus for measuring mercury contained in the gaseous medium includes a reducing tubefor reducing divalent mercury contained in a gaseous medium to zerovalent mercury, a gas-liquid separatorfor removing a liquid component (drain) from the gaseous medium that has passed through the reducing tube, a measuring instrumentfor measuring the quantity of the mercury contained in the gaseous medium delivered from the gas-liquid separator, and a cleaning systemfor running a cleaning liquid from an outlet port of the reducing tubepast the gas-liquid separatorto emerge outwardly of the gas-liquid separator
