Abstract
A system for determining at least one property of a fluid and ensuring measuring surfaces of the system in contact with the fluid remain free of contaminants, includes a housing within which at least one measuring surface is located. The fluid to be measured flows through the housing and contacts the measuring surface. A signal generating device operably associated with the surface provides signals indicative of the at least one fluid property. A transducer is operably associated with the housing and causes agitation of the fluid flowing through the housing so that the measuring surface can be cleaned even during fluid measurement.
