Zusammenfassung:An apparatus includes a body having at least one channel disposed therein configured to permit fluid flow therethrough. A first portion of the at least one channel is configured to permit interrogation of particles carried by a fluid passing therethrough by a sensor device external to the body. The body further has an entry aperture fluidly coupling the at least one channel to ambient and configured to receive the fluid into the at least one channel. The apparatus further includes first and second sensor elements. The first element is positioned to permit detection of flow of the fluid upstream of a second portion of the at least one channel, and the second element is positioned to permit detection of flow of the fluid downstream of the second portion of the at least one channel.
