Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the conductivity detection technical field especially is to point to a conductivity detection device. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the conductivity detection field, the existing conductivity detector flow cell has many problems and needs to be improved. On the one hand, the internal cavity dead volume of the traditional conductivity detector flow cell is large, which makes it difficult to clean and replace the mobile phase, and the sample is easily left, thereby causing problems such as large baseline noise, unstable output signal, and poor repeatability, which seriously affects the accuracy and reliability of the detection result. On the other hand, the measurement result of conductivity is significantly affected by temperature, and if temperature correction and correction are not performed, a large measurement error will be generated. However, some existing temperature compensation schemes also have defects. For example, in the patent with publication number CN212228862U, the PT100 temperature probe is directly in contact with the liquid, which not only may cause liquid leakage and contamination, but also has a small sealing gap that is difficult to clean, further increasing the risk of liquid contamination. In addition, in the patent with publication number CN219675896U, the temperature sensor is placed on the titanium alloy electrode and located outside the electrode fixing column, which is far away from the liquid in the detection flow path channel and has a small contact area with the electrode, resulting in unstable temperature detection and unable to accurately reflect the actual temperature in the detection flow path, thereby affecting the temperature compensation effect of conductivity. The existence of these problems limits the development of conductivity detection technology in application scenarios with high precision, high stability, and high repeatability requirements. SUMMARY
