Zusammenfassung:	An ultrasound measuring apparatus for measuring the flow rate of a fluid in a conduit having two measurement systems is provided that each have at least one pair of ultrasound transducers that span a measurement path between them and that each have a control unit to determine transit times from ultrasound transmitted and received with and against the flow. In this respect, the control units are each configured to fix measurement times for a transit time determination on a measurement path autonomously and independently of one another in accordance with a rule that produces a respective different sequence of the measurement times in both measurement systems.
