Abstract

A method of determining a volume of liquid flowing through a conduit (9,10,15) includes receiving a signal from a flow meter (16) including a rotor (22) drivable by liquid flowing through the flow meter (16). The signal is representative of pulses obtainable by detecting passage of at least one signalling device (26) of which movement is at least synchronised with that of the rotor (22). A number ( N ) of the pulses within a time interval ( ”t ) is determined. A measure ( f ) of a pulse frequency within the time interval ( ”t ) is determined. The volume is determined as a function of a number ( N ) of pulses within the time interval ( ”t ) if the measure ( f ) is indicative of a pulse frequency above a certain value ( y ). The volume is determined as a pre-determined value ( z ) upon determining that the measure ( f ) is indicative of a pulse frequency equal to or lower than the certain value ( y ).
