てである。Conventionally, as a method for determining the liquid concentration of this type, a method using an absorption cell and a photometer shown in FIG. 6 has been proposed (see Japanese Patent Application No. 62-159841 of the applicant's earlier application). FIG. 6 (A) shows the structure of the absorption cell a. The absorption cell a is formed by molding a transparent material such as a transparent resin or a glass material into a long product having a minute gap e having a rectangular cross section and then cutting the product into a predetermined length. FIG. 6 (B) is a diagram showing the operation of absorbing the liquid using the absorption cell a. Absorption cell a
When the liquid is immersed in the liquid tank b, the liquid c is absorbed in the minute gap e by the capillary phenomenon, and the liquid c remains absorbed in the minute gap e even when the absorption cell a is taken out from the liquid tank b. FIG. 6 (C) is a diagram showing a state in which the absorption cell a is measured by the photometer d. In the photometer d, the light emitting element and the light receiving element are arranged so as to face each other, and when the absorption cell a is inserted, the light emitting element and the light receiving element are positioned on both sides of the transparent plate separated by the minute gap e that has absorbed the liquid.
