ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for measuring paint usage in a painting system of the type having a reservoir (12) connected to an atomizer (14) by a supply line (16) and return line (18). A feed flowmeter (24) is disposed in the atomizer feed line (16) and a return flowmeter (26) is disposed in the atomizer return line (18) for measuring the respective volumes of paint flow through the atomizer feed line (16) and return line (18). A processor (28) provides the difference between the volume of paint flow through the atomizer feed and return lines (16,18) as measured by the feed and return flowmeters (24,26), respectively, to determine the volume of paint discharged through the atomizer (14).
