<p>LIQUID DISPENSING SYSTEM A liquid dispensing system comprises a supply of liquid (121), a pump (101), a meter (161) and a plurality of dispensing points or stations, (181) each controlled by a solenoid valve (201). A control box (281) monitors the meter and controls by electronic means which station is enabled (that is, which solenoid valve (201) is opened) and displays on a display (261) provided a reading derived from the meter. In one embodiment, selection of a station (181) is effected at the control box but the invention also provides electronic means enabling selection to be effected at each station. The invention does away with the need for a meter at each station and finds application in the dispensing of oil or the like in garage workshops.</p> |
