Filling level meter device for food troughs containing liquid foodstuff for piglets and baby pigs. Said meter comprises a pipe (20) that can be acted on with compressed air impulses (10, 11, 13). The pipe has a branch line (22) to a pressure transducer (23) that generates different electronic signals (24) that show whether or not a pressure has built up in the line and so whether foodstuff is present or not.
