An apparatus for measuring the content of a predetermined substance in a fluid is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a porous reactive mass (1) that gradually changes colour as it reacts chemically with the substance depending on the volume of fluid passing through the mass, a hollow tube (2) open at both longitudinal ends and containing said mass, a graduation (3) on the longitudinal portion of the tube containing the reactive mass, said graduation being calibrated according to a predetermined volume of fluid passing through the mass, and a heat-sensitive indicator (8) for indicating when the reactive mass has reached a critical heating temperature corresponding to the passage through the mass of a fluid volume equal to the calibrated volume. The apparatus is particularly useful as a breath analyser or for measuring air pollution levels.

La présente invention concerne un appareil de mesure de la teneur d'un fluide en une substance donnée. L'appareil de l'invention comporte une masse réactive poreuse (1) qui se colore progressivement par réaction chimique avec ladite substance en fonction du volume de fluide qui traverse la masse, un tube creux (2) ouvert à ses deux extrémités longitudinales, dans lequel est logée ladite masse, une graduation (3) sur la portion longitudinale du tube contenant la masse réactive, laquelle graduation est étalonnée en fonction d'un volume prédéterminé de fluide traversant la masse, et un indicateur thermo-sensible (8) qui indique que la masse réactive a atteint une température critique d'échauffement correspondant au passage d'un volume de fluide à travers la masse égal au volume étalon prédéterminé précité. L'appareil peut être utilisé notamment comme éthylomètre ou pour mesurer le taux de pollution de l'air.
