APPARATUS FOR MEASURING THE SEDIMENTATION CHARACTERISTICS OF PARTICULATE SOLIDS IN LIQUID ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An apparatus for measuring the sedimentation characte- ristics of particulate solids in liquid is disclosed. The appa- ratus comprises two separate vertical housings adapted to be fil- led to the same level with a liquid less dense than the particu- late solids to be measured, means for introducing a sample of par- ticulate solids to be measured in one of the housings, two pressu- re sensors located at the same level, one in each housing, and a differential pressure transducer connected to such pressure sen- sors for sensing the differential pressure caused by the sample introduced into one of the housings. The differential pressure transducer provides an output indicative of the weight percent of sample remaining in suspension as a function of time and such out- put may be used to determine the weight fraction of the particula- te solids passing any given mesh size, or for measuring the speci- fic gravity of particulate material of known dry weight.
