Abstract (en)

A fluid flow monitoring method and a fluid flow monitoring device (10) comprising a fluid passage (18) having a fluid input (13) and a fluid output (15), a fluid flow detection device (19, 20, 24, 25, 27) arranged for detecting fluid flow through the passage (18), and an electronic control circuit (23). The electronic control circuit (23) operatively connects to the fluid flow detection device (19, 20 24, 25, 27). The fluid flow detection device (19, 20 24, 25, 27) is arranged for establishing absence and presence of fluid flow through the fluid passage (18) and for providing signalling of an operational state of the fluid flow by operating presentation means (23) when a user is sensed in the vicinity of the fluid flow monitoring device (10).
