On arrive à ce résultat en faisant appel à un élément sensible(bulbe) que l'on fixe sur le conduit d’aspiration, à la sortie immédiate de l'évaporateur. Ce bulbe, qui est rempli d’un liquide volatil agissant par sa tension de vapeur, est relié au "train thermostatique"(...) du détendeur par l'intermédiaire d’un tube capillaire. 1, record 3, French, - bulbe
