Abstract

See full text

An ultrasound instrument for detecting a measured value of a medium includes a measurement chamber having a chamber wall and a longitudinal axis; a pair of ultrasound transducers configured to transmit ultrasound signals along a signal path between ultrasound transducers of the pair through the measurement chamber and to receive ultrasound signals, wherein the signal path includes a signal reflection on a reflection surface, wherein the chamber wall in a region of the reflection surface opposite a first chamber side is configured to prevent a reflection of an ultrasound signal on a chamber outer surface of the chamber wall in the direction of the signal path, wherein the chamber wall has, in the region of the reflection surface, a maximum wall thickness which is at least a factor of 1.5 greater than a Rayleigh wavelength, associated with a central frequency, of the ultrasound signal in the chamber wall.
