Abstract
A method for detecting particles in a fluid stream includes generating a measurement field that can be passed through by the fluid stream, acquiring and evaluating measurement values of the fluid stream passing through the measurement field, and detecting at least one particle by way of a distinctive sequence of measurement values. Each of the distinctive successions of measurement values is acquired and evaluated to determine if a particle or a gas bubble is passing through the measurement field.
