ABSTRACT:
A flowmeter apparatus and method for use in measuring the quantity of liquid beverage passing through a tubing, the apparatus including a flowmeter wheel adapted to be turned by the flow of beverage through the tubing. The flowmeter wheel is interposed in a light path between a light source and a light detector with a plurality of apertures in the flowmeter wheel permitting light passage through the light path to the light detector. Rotation of the wheel creates a series of light pulses that are detected by the light detector and are electronically counted to thereby provide an indication of the amount of beverage passing through the flowmeter and, correspondingly, the tubing.
