Abstract

The present device provides a pressure-responsive transducer which fits externally onto a fluid carrying pipe, or conduit, and which transducer contacts the pipe at a plurality of tangential points. Said tangential points are located in a plane which lies substantially orthogonally to the axis of said fluid carrying pipe. In addition, the present system employs a circuit which is connected to said transducer and said circuit is particularly designed to eliminate background noise and spurious signals.
