Abstract: A flow control apparatus comprising a housing capable of receiving a portion of the feeding set, a pumping device configured to receive the feeding set and may produce a fluid flow in the feeding set and deliver fluid to a subject, an ultrasonic sensor may be configured to produce a sensor signal indicative of a condition of the feeding set, and a control circuit in communication with the ultrasonic sensor for receiving the sensor signal from the ultrasonic sensor indicative of the condition of the feeding set. The ultrasonic sensor may comprise a plurality of sensor components which may be configured to emit an ultrasonic signal in a first direction, and in a second direction opposite the first direction through the feeding set.
