Abstract
This is directed to a testing apparatus for measuring property data of a solid, a gas, a liquid. This is particularly directed to a testing device for testing a water system such as a shower, a safety shower, or a fire sprinkler. This is also directed to a testing process for testing a water system such as a shower, a safety shower, or a fire sprinkler.
Claims18
A testing apparatus comprising:
- a base portion comprising a collection container;
- a height adjustable stem portion functionally coupled to the base portion, wherein the stem portion includes a height adjustment means allowing for the adjustment of the stem portion to accommodate varying heights for testing;
- a funnel portion functionally coupled to the stem portion;
- and
- a measurement device selected from a volume measurement device, a weight measurement device, a flow rate measurement device, a pH measurement device, a conductivity measurement device, a pressure measurement device, a thermal measurement device, a content measurement device, a viscosity measurement device, an optical measurement device, a digital control device functionally coupled to the measurement device, or a combination thereof;
- wherein the testing apparatus is configured to collect a specimen from a specimen discharger and produce property data of the specimen;
- wherein the stem portion is a tube or a pipe made from rigid metal, plastic, composite or glass that is configured to have an internal passage connecting the funnel portion and the collection container;
- and
- wherein the collection container, the stem portion and the funnel portion are functionally coupled so that the specimen is collected in the funnel portion, flows through the stem portion and enters the collection container.

7 more elements
A testing process for producing property data of a liquid, the process comprising the steps of:
- collecting a specimen of the liquid using a collection device affixed to a height adjustable stem device that is a tube or a pipe made from rigid metal, plastic, composite or glass that is configured to have an internal passage;
- transporting the specimen from the collection device through said internal passage of the stem device to a collection container, and
- storing the specimen in the collection container;
- measuring a measurement data of the specimen at the collection device, the stem device, the collection container, or a combination thereof;
- producing the property data of the liquid based on the measurement data;
- and
- outputting the property data to a display device to display the property on the display device, to a non-transitory computer readable digital storage device, or a combination thereof.
