Tüüpiline aurufaasi imbumismõõtur koosneb: kahest termistorist, millest üks on polümeer-lahusti lahuse tilgaga ja teine puhta lahustitilgaga, mis on selle külge kinnitatud; termostateeritud kambris, mille sisemus on küllastunud lahustiauruga; vedela lahustiga anum kambris; ja elektriahel silla väljundi tasakaalustamatuse erinevuse mõõtmiseks kahe termistori vahel.
A typical vapor phase osmometer consists of: two thermistors, one with a polymer-solvent solution droplet adhered to it and another with a pure solvent droplet adhered to it; a thermostatted chamber with an interior saturated with solvent vapor; a liquid solvent vessel in the chamber; and an electric circuit to measure the bridge output imbalance difference between the two thermistors.
