Excerpt from A Nonintermittent Senistometer (Time-Scale Exposure Machine) With Clock-Controlled Motor Drive The design of a sensitometer must depend considerably upon the special nature of the work for which it is to be used. Of previous designs two by Jones (4) of nonintermittent sensitometers are note worthy. The exposures in the first are controlled by a solenoid which moves a shutter plate in steps in front of the photographic material.

Excerpt from A Nonintermittent Senistometer (Time-Scale Exposure Machine) With Clock-Controlled Motor Drive The design of a sensitometer must depend considerably upon the special nature of the work for which it is to be used. Of previous designs two by Jones (4) of nonintermittent sensitometers are note worthy. The exposures in the first are controlled by a solenoid which moves a shutter plate in steps in front of the photographic material. The time intervals of the steps are determined by the spacing of perforations in a strip of motion-picture film driven at a constant rate, through which an electrical contact lever operates. The timing of this machine may be changed by substituting another strip of film having perforations spaced to suit the requirements. This sensitometer is adapted for use with small light intensities only as the shutter can not be moved with sufficient precision for exposures less than one-fourth of a second. The other machine by Jones (5) is of the sector-wheel type in which the exposures take place during one revolution only. The speed of the sector wheel is variable through the enormous range of from to 0000614 r. P. M. All of this range is not available, however, as the light - Operating mecha nism was found not to function satisfactorily at the higher velocities. Apparently the maximum operating speed is 320 r. P. M. The sec tor wheel is 30 inches in diameter, has 10 steps in the usual power of-two ratio, and the largest aperture is This instrument was designed primarily for a study of the reciprocity law. Jones (6) and Higson (7) describe two machines in which an aperture plate is moved in a linear motion; the first one mentioned has step apertures, the other is a continuous wedge - shaped aperture.
