ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for use in monitoring particles in a fluid flow comprises: a duct (1) for receiving the fluid flow; light generating means (6) adjacent the duct for transmitting light into the fluid flow via a first at least partially light-transmissive part (4) of the duct; light-responsive detection means (7) adjacent a second at least partially light-transmissive part (5) of the duct for receiving light from the light generating means which has passed through the fluid flow; processing means (8) for location remotely from said duct; and means (9) for coupling the processing means with the detection means, the processing means being adapted for processing signals therefrom to provide data relating to particles in the fluid flow.
