Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A tubing dimension measurement assembly includes a processor, a housing having an opening configured to receive a tube, the opening having an anti-slip material configured to affix the tubing dimension measurement assembly to measure a location on the tube, an emitter disposed in the housing, the emitter configured to generate an emission into a tubing pathway, and a collector disposed in the housing, the collector disposed to receive the emission from the emitter. The tubing dimension measurement assembly is configured to measure an outside diameter of the tube received in the tubing pathway without physically contacting the tube or the tubing pathway, the measurement based at least in part on the emission, and monitor a change in measurements of the outside diameter without physical contact in real time while fluid flows through the tube. Methods of operating a tubing dimension measurement assembly are also provided.
