ABSTRACT:
An acoustic fluid flow meter has a timer for determining downstream and upstream transit times values of acoustic pulses transmitted between acoustic signal transceivers, operable alternately as transmitters and receivers, respectively, with and against the direction of fluid flow. Additionally an error signal indicator is supplied with the determined transit time values and emits an error signal indicative of a false flow reading if their sum and/or difference, particularly the sum of derived values, differs from a corresponding control value by a predetermined amount.
