[0002] The water purification process is one of the important working processes in a natural gas purification plant. In the water purification process, there are two dosing points for adding chlorine dioxide to water. One is for positive-pressure dosing of chlorine dioxide in front of the high-efficiency sedimentation tank to remove algae and divalent iron ions, and the other is for dosing chlorine dioxide at the total outlet position of the domestic water pipeline in the water purification plant for disinfection. The concentration of chlorine dioxide in water is crucial for the impact on water quality and the safe use of water. Generally, a chlorine dioxide monitor needs to be set on the pipeline of the production device. The monitor detects the pH value, residual chlorine concentration, etc. of the flowing water through sensors and electrodes extending into the water to achieve real-time water quality monitoring. The existing chlorine dioxide online monitoring for the water purification process in a natural gas purification plant uses a chlorine dioxide monitor based on the electrochemical method.

At the same time, the shielding of the visual window 4 is realized through the shielding cover 5 to avoid the light transmission of the visual window 4 affecting the normal progress of the water treatment process.

[0037] In this embodiment, the visual window 4 is blocked by the shielding cover 5 of the opaque material structure. The shielding cover 5 is slidably matched with the visual window 4. By providing a protruding rail support portion 6 on the pool body 1 and a guide rail 61 on the rail support portion 6, the shielding cover 5 is slidably matched with the guide rail 61 to achieve. When in use, by pulling or pushing the shielding cover 5 to move relative to the visual window 4, the opening or closing of the position of the visual window 4 can be realized.

[0038] Preferably, the visual window 4 is rectangular. Guide rails 61 are respectively provided on the upper edge and the lower edge of the visual window 4, so that the shielding cover 5 can slide horizontally relative to the visual window 4 to realize the opening and closing of the visual window 4. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient.

[0045] A flow-through measurement cell with a viewing window according to this embodiment has a light-shielding edge 11 provided on the cell body 1 to further reduce the influence of light on the water treatment process and improve the shielding effect on the viewing window 4. The light-shielding edge 11 is arranged around the viewing window 4 and is located on the side of the guide rail 61 close to the viewing window 4, so that the setting of the light-shielding edge 11 does not affect the setting of the guide rail 61. After the shielding cover 5 is opened, a part of the light entering the viewing window 4 can be blocked through the light-shielding edge 11, and an installation position is provided for pasting the sealing strip 7, so that the sealing strip 7 is pasted on the top surface of the light-shielding edge 11. When the shielding cover 5 closes the viewing window 4, the sealing strip 7 is squeezed and abutted between the shielding cover 5 and the light-shielding edge 11.

[0046] Embodiment 3

[0047] As Figure 3 - Figure 6 shown, a flow-through measurement cell with a viewing window according to this embodiment has a structure similar to that of Embodiment 2, except that: a hinge part 8 is provided above the viewing window 4, and the shielding cover 5 is hinged and fixed through the hinge part 8.

[0048] A flow-through measurement cell with a viewing window according to this embodiment is different from Embodiment 1 in that the shielding cover 5 is installed on the cell body 1 in a hinged connection manner, and by defining the position of the hinge part 8, a shielding cover 5 that opens from bottom to top is formed. The volume of the shielding cover 5 is enlarged to integrally shield the viewing window 4, which is convenient for the installation and fixation of the shielding cover 5 on the flow-through measurement cell and reduces the improvement cost of the flow-through measurement cell.

[0049] Preferably, the hinge part 8 is provided on the outer wall of the cell body 1 or the side wall or the top of the cell cover 2. The shielding cover 5 adjusts its structure according to the shape of the cell body 1, so that after the shielding cover 5 shields the viewing window 4, it can fit the shape of the cell body 1 to achieve an overall covering of the viewing window 4 area, which can expand the shielding range of the shielding cover 5 and improve the shielding effect of the shielding cover 5.

[0050] Embodiment 4

[0051] As Figure 7 shown, a flow-through measurement cell with a viewing window according to this embodiment is based on Embodiment 1, Embodiment 2 or Embodiment 3.

A flow pattern observation port 53 is also provided, and the flow pattern observation port 53 is arranged offset from the electrodes 3. Both the electrode observation ports 52 and the flow pattern observation ports 53 are shielded by a cover plate 54, and the cover plate 54 is snap-connected to the corresponding observation port.

[0052] A flow-through measurement cell with a viewing window according to this embodiment integrates multiple observation ports on the shielding cover 5, and each observation port is covered by a cover plate 54 to reduce the light transmission range that needs to be opened correspondingly each time of observation and reduce the influence of light on the water treatment process.

[0053] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
