Abstract

The invention comprises a transflexion probe for carrying out a transflexion measurement on a liquid located in a vessel, comprising a probe shaft (202) which is provided with a light guide path in its interior and at whose front end face there is arranged an open flow chamber (210) with a reflective plate (218) opposite the front end face of the probe shaft (202). The invention is distinguished by the fact that the probe shaft (202) is designed as a rigid cavity which is sealed at its front end face by a transparent window (206) and has at its rear end a first coupling device (204) for the rigid coupling of a sensor module (100) to the probe shaft (202).
