Former water is just being washed under state, and when the water intaking valve of frequent use broke down, former water also can and just washed water intaking valve by the second backwash water intaking valve and enter upper shell.This process can be used as and substitutes the standby control logic that former water is just being washed.
What beat √ is the opening valve, does not beat the expression closed condition valve of √.Also can be checked by main control PLC and arrange the duty of each valve or water pump, not close if there is closing, maybe should open and do not open, produce abnormal alarm signal prompt artificial treatment.
Concrete, the duty of filtration system is described as follows:
Can set the scavenging period of filter course, for example every 12 hours washing and filtering layers once.Also can utilize detector to detect, rinse when reaching detection threshold, and before and after rinsing, filtration system is in normal operation duty, produces pretreated water.
Concrete, at the inlet tube and outlet tube place of the filter course of filtration system, differential pressure pickup, more medium filter impurity severe obstruction are installed, pressure reduction increases, surpass the threshold pressure differential of setting, trigger and spread out of electric signal to main control PLC, thereby whether rinse operation by PLC controlled filter layer.The SDI instrumentation perhaps is installed in water side, and whether the water outlet that detects filter course meets the water inlet requirement of reverse osmosis module, arranges in main control PLC, is greater than threshold value (as SDI > 3), and the controlled filter system enters the flushing state from duty.
1, operation is filtered: open raw water pump, water intaking valve and outlet valve.Filter and by raw water pump, enter upper shell by water intaking valve with former water, pass through from top to bottom filter course, the mechanical filter that completes former water generates pretreated water and enters lower house, exports from delivery port 4 by outlet valve.

Because most recycle-water glassware for drinking water as dense as first-stage reverse osmosis has higher TDS value, water quality is less than former water, in the recycle-water backwash process, can cause the filtrate of filter course saturated because of the absorption salinity, reduce water quality, therefore between raw water pump and the first backwash water intaking valve, increase the second backwash water intaking valve newly, the use main control PLC is controlled, realization utilize the second road recycle-water to rinse water source the dense water of first-stage reverse osmosis is just washed if used, after backwash, realize that the positive and negative of the former water of the first via wash, thereby realize two-way water source bidirectional flushing.
4, former water back flush: main purpose is for being used the upper strata filtrate of former water back flush filtering layer, avoid because of recycle-water water quality not good, if reclaimed the filtrate salinity saturation problem of using the dense water of first-stage reverse osmosis to cause.Clean with former water and pass through the second backwash water intaking valve by raw water pump, then, by the first backwash water intaking valve, enter from the filter course bottom, pass through from the bottom up filter course inside, finally from backwash draining valve and the waste discharge mouth on top, go out.Each former water backwash duration generally is shorter than the time of recycle-water backwash, or artificial the setting.
5, former water is just washed: draining pump will clean with former water and enter upper shell by water intaking valve, by from the filter course upper strata, entering, pass through from top to bottom filter course inside, finally from bottom just wash draining valve and the waste discharge mouth is gone out.The each 3--10 minute of washing time, its objective is in flushing process, to filter course, bringing the impurity subpunch of secondary pollution to lavage possibly, then closes and just wash draining valve, opens outlet valve, for follow-up reverse osmosis module provides qualified former water.
In actual the use, by the PLC programming, but also two-way wash water positive and negative washing repeatedly alternately, repeatedly carry out, be particularly suitable for when filter course needs repairing, and using former water and just washing the final step as flushing.
