Abstract From the Canadian patent

A particle sampling system which includes a flow restrictor positioned in a conduit between a vent and an analyzer probe and restricts flow in the conduit to maintain an overpressure of sample gas at the counter probe which, in turn, forces the gas sample into the particle analyzer. The system further includes a reservoir for holding a working fluid usable with a particle analyzer and a pressurized gas source which is used to pressurize the reservoir to enable supply of the working fluid against the pressure of the gas analysis sample and to provide a purge gas for the analyzer.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed May 30, 1996 and granted October 27, 1998. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended May 30, 2016.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by May 30, 2018.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
