Abstract

A computer-implemented method for determining a delivery volume for use in a vehicle washing system. The method includes reading in a container data record for the container from which the substance is to be delivered by means of the dosing pump; reading in a digital level value representing a level measured in the container by means of at least one analog level sensor or reading in a digital pressure value representing a pressure measured in the container by means of at least one analog pressure sensor and reading in a digital density value for the substance to be delivered by the dosing pump, determining and outputting the delivery volume delivered by the dosing pump in a measuring time interval, based on the read-in digital level value or the read-in digital pressure value and the read-in density value and on the basis of the read-in vessel data record.
