Abstract

An analysis system for measuring a plurality of parameters of a fluid sample comprises a housing, and a flow-through cell in the housing that has opposed surfaces with at least two ports in each surface. One of the ports is an inlet port, a second of the ports is an outlet port, and at least two of the ports are sensing ports. A sample flow path including a serpentine portion in the cell serially connects the ports and extends from a port in one surface to a port in the other surface and back to a port in the one surface, and a sensor is disposed in sealing engagement with each sensing port and forms a portion of the serpentine flow path so that sample fluid to be analyzed contacts a surface of each sensor.
