Abstract
A flow cell for use in an analytical system of the type that may be used to test water samples for specific analytes. The flow cell reduces or eliminates the effects of backpressure on a liquid stream passing through the flow cell. This allows a sensor to be incorporated with the flow cell and enables the sensor to provide consistent output with respect to the analyte being tested without introducing signal error due to backpressure fluctuations.
