Abstract

The invention relates to concentration measurement transmitters, more specifically to an arrangement for a static, blade-type transmitter, which includes a blade active in the medium to be measured and suspended by a spindle such that shear force moment at the blade is translated via the spindle to a measurement converter for determining fiber concentration in the medium, the converter preferably being situated in the transmitter housing, into which the spindle extends and is sealed against it with the aid of a lead-through. The latter includes a tube either integral with, or rigidly, cohesively fixed to it and extending downwards to the free end portion of the spindle carrying the blade, the spindle extending through the tube with a clearance enabling movement of the spindle necessary for the measurement converter for a turning movement of the spindle about a theoretical turning center substantially at the middle portion of the tube, to the free end portion of which tube the spindle is rigidly and sealingly fixed, whereby a seal in the lead-through is obtained across the clearance formed between the spindle and the tube, which does not affect the shear force moment translated to the converter and consequently not measurement accuracy either in terms of pressure sensitivity, temperature sensitivity and/or longitudinal forces prone to being transmitted along the spindle towards the measurement converter.
