ABSTRACT:
A standpipe is connected into a fiber processing system such as a pressurized stock line of a paper making system, containing refined stock, or unrefined pulp, at operating consistencies. Automatic controls cycle a measurement chamber, in the standpipe, through intake measure and exhaust. An imperforate plate mounted across the measurement chamber has at least one hole of predetermined cross dimension, or diameter, substantially equal to the relative length of fiber desired. Automatic timing establishes a set intake time for slurry, or suspension, to pass through the hole and contact lower and/or upper liquid level sensors, or other level indicators, in the chamber. Instantaneous, periodic read out is provided to indicate "too short", "too long" or "correct length" with each cycle. Differential pressure, across the hole, or orifice during measure, as well as approach velocity, is appropriately controlled.
