Abstract

A measuring system for monitoring the material parameters and/or homogeneity of a suspension which is conveyed through a channel, is electrically conductive or contains electrically conductive components with which an electrode of an electrical storage battery or electrical energy store is formed. A sensor system designed for ultrasonic inspection, which has at least one ultrasonic transducer, which is arranged on the outer wall of the channel in order to emit sound waves, and a sensor system designed for eddy current detection is provided, formed with at least one electrical transmitting coil and at least one electrical receiving coil or a giant magnetoresistive sensor (GMR), anisotropic magnetoresistive sensor (AMR), superconducting quantum interference sensor (SQUID) or Hall sensor and is arranged upstream or downstream of the sensor system.
