The collar is positioned immediately upstream of the aperture to cause a directional flow of the liquid along a path substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis for the aperture. The flow through the collar directs the particles to flow along paths substantially parallel to the aperture axis thereby reducing the turbulence about the particle created by abrupt changes in velocity. Preferably, the collar includes a housing for telescoping on the bottom of a detection tube.
