Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de détection optique pour compteur comportant un indicateur de consommation formé d'un dis ue rotatif 4 pourvu d'au moins- un secteur dit actif et des éléments optiques du type émetteur et du type récepteur en vis à vis dudit disque, dont le signal optique reçu est traité pour déduire au moins le nombre de tours dudit disque. Selon l'invention, ledit disque (4) comporte au moins trois secteurs (4A, 4B, 4C) d'angle au centre égal à 1200, chacun des secteurs étant revêtu sur sa face tournée vers l'extérieur du compteur (1) d'une couleur différente et lesdits éléments optiques comprennent au moins un élément émetteur (6) d'un faisceau de lumière d'au moins deux couleurs différentes et un élément récepteur (7) d'un faisceau de lumière réfléchi.
