Abstract

Apparatus for the automatic changing of fluid containing vessels connected to a common dispensing unit (10), the apparatus defining a plurality of flow paths between a plurality of inlets (6) and a common outlet (13), each of said flow paths being provided with a sensor (9) for determining a change in a property of the fluid passing along said flow path, the flow paths collectively forming a manifold (3) located between each of said sensors and said outlet, each flow path being further provided with a fluid control valve (7) located between the sensor in that flow path and the manifold, and control means (17), responsive to the output from a sensor in a flow path along which fluid is flowing, for closing the valve in that flow path and for opening a valve in another flow path.
