Abstract From the Canadian patent

A gas analysis apparatus using multiple orifices of preselected sizes to attain a calculated gas mixing ratio for diluting an oxygen sample to a concentration less than 95% prior to application to a limiting current oxygen sensor. The apparatus comprises a regulator for regulating the pressures of incoming flows of air and oxygen sample to be measured a valve for allowing, the concentration of the air sample to oxygen sample to be measured, and a system for calculating the air sample/oxygen sample mixing ratio based on the known air sample concentration and then based on the known air concentration and calculated mixing ratio calculating the unknown sample concentration from the output of …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed September 18, 1997 and granted June 4, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended September 18, 2017.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 18, 2019.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
