Description

The present invention proposes a solution to a problem existing in the context of domestic water supply. Domestic water supply systems, usually connected to the municipal water supply system via a domestic connection and provided with a sewer pipe to discharge waste water from the house to the public sewer system, have cold and hot water supply lines to at least one residential unit of a building. The building may comprise several residential units, each unit having a cold water supply and hot water supply. Usually, each residential unit comprises several extraction fittings. Such removal valves in the drinking water installation are z. B. installed on washbasins, bathtubs, shower trays or sinks. Today, so-called mixing valves as extraction valves are common at this point, the input side are connected to a drinking water supply for cold and hot water. On the output side, the water mixed in the valve to an average temperature is led out of the valve. The removal fitting may be a so-called single-lever mixer, which generates water at a predetermined mixing temperature due to the manually set lever position. However, this temperature is not preselected and is not regulated by the valve. Rather, the mixing temperature results from the mixing of two differently tempered individual streams, namely the warm water stream and the cold water stream. The same applies to mixing valves with two separately openable valves, one valve for hot and the other valve is provided for cold water. Although there are also thermostatically controlled valves that adjust by means of a temperature-sensitive element a preset temperature within a certain control accuracy.

However, the aforementioned removal valves are subject to the problem of pressure fluctuations in the supply network. These pressure fluctuations can occur both in the area of the cold water supply and in the area of the hot water supply in the building, depending on how much water is currently taken from the cold water network or the hot water network of the building. Thus, on the input side of a removal fitting cold and hot water side is generally a different and time-varying pressure. The change in pressure in the two networks is not synchronous. For sampling valves without thermostatic control such pressure fluctuations produce immediately significant temperature fluctuations at the outlet of the sampling valve. These variations are perceived by the user as at least disturbing if not unacceptable. The latter is at least when water removal on a shower head whose water temperature is adjusted by the sampling valve to observe. Thermostatically controlled valves can compensate for these pressure fluctuations to a certain extent. But even here, the temperature is not constant due to pressure fluctuations.

The present invention seeks to provide a solution to this problem.

In view of this, the present invention provides a drinking or service water system having the features of claim 1. The invention comprises a drinking water or service water system in a building having several residential units with a connected to the public water supply network house connection and connected to the public sewer network sewage pipe, at least one leading only to one of the housing units cold water supply of cold water in a residential unit, at least a leading only to these units hot water supply to provide hot water in the residential unit, and at least one suitable for the removal of cold water and hot water trained and arranged in the housing extraction valve fitting, the drainage side drained into a leading to the sewer pipe sewer, the cold water supply with one leading to the housing units cold water drainage and the hot water supply is connected to a leading to the housing units hot water drainage. The discharge for cold water or hot water is usually in the area of the apartment entrance. The corresponding derivatives are usually assigned solely to the apartment, whereas the supply line can also be laid as a supply of several units. According to the invention, the two water outlets are each assigned a pressure compensation element. The installation of the pressure compensation element is preferably carried out so that the pressure compensation element regulates the pressure within the housing unit as a whole, so that there is lower pressure references between the cold and the hot water supply in the entire residential unit or a supply-technical subunit of the housing unit. The pressure compensation element is usually assigned to more than one consumer and regularly provided at a central point of the water supply of the residential unit.

The pressure compensation element has a movable piston element which separates a hot water side and a cold water side. The hot water side communicates with the water drainage for the hot water and the cold water side with the water drainage for the cold water.

The pressure compensation element according to the invention is usually located at the entrance to the residential unit. Since a water meter is usually provided there, the pressure compensation element is preferably also associated with the two water meters for the cold or hot water. Usually, a water meter is provided in the cold water drain and a water meter in the hot water discharge, and regularly at the entrance to the housing unit. The cold water drainage and the hot water discharge are connected in a conventional manner with at least one, usually several removal fittings within the residential unit. The pressure compensation element associated with the two water meters can be provided upstream or downstream of the water meters in the flow direction.

Due to the preferred positioning of the pressure compensation element at an entrance to a dwelling or a downstream flow branch, which supplies a functional area within a dwelling, it is preferable to combine the pressure compensation element with shut-off devices. These shut-off devices for shutting off the residential unit as a whole or the subunit within the apartment are preferably assigned directly to the pressure equalizing regulator and provided directly upstream or downstream thereof in the flow direction.

Preferably, in the drinking and service water system, the cold water supply and the hot water supply are each connected to an inlet port and the cold water drainage and the hot water discharge each with an outlet with a pressure balance regulator having a cylindrical compensation chamber in which a piston member is movably disposed on either side of the piston member is each provided with an inlet opening, wherein the one inlet opening communicates with the cold water supply line and the other inlet opening with the hot water supply line. The piston element constitutes a valve body which, depending on the position of the piston element, displaces at least one of the inlet openings completely or partially.

In particular, the drinking and service water system can preferably be mounted on an entrance of the residential unit, so that the pressure fluctuations can take place before the entry of the cold water into the cold water drain and the hot water into the hot water drain. In this case, the point at which lines for hot and cold water for drinking water supply in the residential unit are transferred from supply lines in the building to the residential unit is to be regarded as the entrance. Often the entrance is located at the point where water meters are located in the housing unit for determining the water consumption of cold and warm water. In this way, a pressure compensation regulator can equalize the pressure of the water for the at least one extraction fitting. Furthermore, in this way, the pressure compensation regulator may be connected upstream of several removal fittings of the residential unit. It can be space for the pressure balance regulator can be saved and the installation of the drinking or domestic water system can be simplified.

Furthermore, a residential unit can also have several cold water supply lines and hot water supply lines. The number of cold water supply lines and hot water supply lines may vary according to the size of the residential unit and / or branches of the supply lines in the residential unit or the arrangement of the leads to the apartment. By arranging a pressure equalization regulator on each of the supply lines, wherein in each case a cold water supply and a hot water supply is connected to a pressure equalization regulator, a pressure equalization can take place before the discharges, so that the cold water or hot water are forwarded to the at least one sampling valve substantially without pressure fluctuations can.

The pressure balance regulator can be positively connected to that of the cold water supply line, the hot water supply line, the cold water drainage and the hot water discharge, for example by screwing, or cohesively, for example by soldering, welding or gluing. The individual components are connected to each other in such a way that the connections are watertight, so that no water can leak at the connection points. In particular, a seal, for example an O-ring, or a fiber seal, such as hemp or paper, may be arranged at the connection points.

The pressure balance regulator can be mounted on plaster or plaster and provided with a valve to which the cold water drain and the hot water discharge can be fired.

The pressure compensation regulator effects a pressure-controlled control. Hot water flows on one side of the piston into the cylindrical compensation chamber, cold water on the other side. If there is a pressure difference, this is compensated by movement of the piston member. By this movement of the piston member of the thus coupled valve body is provided. The design of the valve body is such that this usually that inlet opening completely or partially laid, through which the water with the higher water pressure flows. As a result of this displacement of the inlet opening, a reduction in the fluid pressure in the region of the compensation chamber assigned to this inlet opening takes place. This compensates for pressure differences in the range of the inlet pressures of the two water systems cold / warm by the pressure compensation regulator and by the pressure difference-controlled position of the piston.

The design is very simple, since the pressure compensation control is controlled solely by the acting pressure of the flowing water streams, usually by the pressure difference on the output side.

Usually, the valve body is formed by the lateral surface of a hollow cylindrical piston element. In this piston element of the end face of the piston is effected by a partition wall, from which the hollow cylindrical lateral surface goes off. Usually go on both sides of the partition hollow cylindrical lateral surfaces in the axial direction. The configuration of these lateral surfaces is preferably such that in a position in which one of the inlet openings through the lateral surface completely or at least partially laid, the other inlet opening usually by a formed in the lateral surface recess with maximum passage opening with the associated inner region of the cylindrical Compensation chamber communicates. In this position, care is taken to ensure pressure equalization between the two chambers with maximum effectiveness and speed.

In this way, a drinking or service water system can be provided, which can compensate for pressure fluctuations in cold water pipes and hot water pipes for a residential unit.

It is preferred that the cold water drain and / or the hot water drain are connected to a plurality of extraction fittings. In particular, the pressure equalization regulator arranged upstream of the cold water discharge and before the hot water discharge can compensate for the pressure difference such that an additional arrangement of further pressure compensation regulators can be saved before each removal fitting. The cold water discharge and the hot water discharge are usually connected to more than one withdrawal fitting. These removal fittings are located exclusively in the one residential unit. The extraction fittings can be connected via different lengths of piping to the discharge lines. As a result, different pressures can again be generated, which, however, are negligibly small. By arranging a pressure balance regulator before the cold water drainage and the hot water drainage a substantially equal pressure for the connected to the cold water drainage and the hot water discharge extraction valves can be provided so that more pressure balance regulator can be saved within the housing unit. Furthermore, space can be saved for the savings pressure equalization regulator, which can simplify the installation of extraction valves and the drinking or domestic water system.

Preferably, the cold water supply and the hot water supply are each shut off via a closure member. In this way, the inflow of cold water or hot water can be easily interrupted, whereby the safety of the drinking and domestic water system can be increased. For example, can be shut off by the closure member of the inflow of water to replace an end fitting or to replace the burst pipe in a water pipe break.

In a preferred embodiment, the water meters are designed as calibrated water meters and / or as volumetric flow meters. The calibrated water meters are typically used to determine the total amount of water withdrawn within a billing period (approximately one year). The volumetric flow meters are used to determine the instantaneous water flow through the piping, especially as part of a water damage protection device. For example, if a very high flow rate indicative of water pipe breakage or a small but constant flow indicative of an accidental non-closed stopcock tap or leakage is detected, precautionary measures may be taken, particularly shutting off the associated piping. The volumetric flow meter may preferably be designed to communicate the flow rate by means of electrical signals, for example to an electronic control. Within the scope of the invention, a calibrated water meter and a volumetric flow meter can also be provided in the discharge.

With a view to maximally possible inflow of liquid into the interior of the pressure compensation regulator at maximum open passage between the inlet opening and the inner region of the compensation chamber assigned to this inlet opening, it is preferable to leave a groove at least partially, preferably completely, in the wall of the compensation chamber in an end position of the piston communicates with a at least partially circumferentially extending in the valve body recess. The recess and the groove are usually in axial direction, ie in the direction of the piston member the same extent, ie are substantially the same width. But at least the recess should be as large as the width of the groove to allow unimpeded entry of water in the groove in the region of the compensation chamber through the recess. The corresponding recess is usually located in the axial direction between the partition and a cylindrical wall portion of the piston element, which completely covers the inlet opening in a closed position. Thus, a plurality of recesses in the circumferential direction are usually provided successively to the maximum entry of water in the open position in the circumferential direction, usually provided distributed uniformly over the circumference of the hollow cylindrical piston element. The webs separating the individual recesses connect the cylindrical wall region to a wall section which is likewise usually completely cylindrical and thus peripherally closed, and which is axially closed by the partition wall. The partition is firmly connected to the hollow cylindrical element. The hollow cylindrical piston element may be rotatable in the cylindrical compensation chamber. Such a rotatability usually does not affect the functionality, and thus the hollow cylindrical piston element with a circular cross section can be arranged in a cylindrical compensation chamber provided correspondingly with a circular cross section.

The groove recessed in the compensation chamber inside the pressure balance regulator usually extends strictly radially around and includes the inlet opening. The groove may be provided with varying depth, this depth in the region of the inlet opening maximum and opposite thereto may be minimal. Thus, a flow cross section is created, which takes into account the expected decrease of the flow volume in the circumferential direction, starting from the outlet opening.

For constructive simplification of the pressure compensation regulator is proposed according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention to form a valve seat for the valve body directly through a compensation chamber forming housing. At this valve seat, the valve body is in a final position substantially sealingly. In this case, the valve seat is usually formed on both sides of the groove, so that all regularly regularly formed on the housing flow channels for introducing water through the one inlet opening into the compensation chamber are closed by the valve body in the end position.

As already mentioned, the piston element in the interior of the pressure compensation regulator is preferably designed such that in the end position, in which an inlet opening is closed, a valve body formed on the piston element seals against the valve seat of one of the inlet openings, while at the other inlet opening at least one partially circumferentially on the hollow cylinder extending recess communicates with said other inlet port. In other words, in the said end position, one of the inlet openings is completely closed, while the other of the inlet openings is maximally continuous to the interior of the hollow cylinder, and accordingly a maximum flow of water through this inlet opening is possible.

Regularly the mobility of the piston limiting stops are provided in the interior of the pressure equalizing sailor. These stops are usually designed so that they specify the said end positions. In one end position, one of the inlet openings is closed, whereas the other inlet opening communicates maximally with the interior of the hollow cylinder. In another end position, in which another stop effectively specifies the position of the hollow cylinder, the other of the inlet openings communicates with the maximum passage opening through the hollow cylinder to the interior of the hollow cylinder, whereas the further inlet opening is closed.

According to a preferred development of the pressure compensation regulator, the outlets are located outside a region swept by the piston and the valve body. Thus, the effective flow cross section between the pressure compensation chamber and the two outlets usually remains unaffected by the respective position of the piston and thus of the valve body. The inlet openings are preferably within the swept area.

According to a preferred embodiment of the pressure compensation regulator, a piston element is provided with a hollow cylinder passing through a partition wall approximately in the middle. On both sides of the dividing wall, this hollow cylinder has in each case a circumferentially continuous closure body, which is designed, for example, for sealing engagement with the valve seat, and a passage region provided between the dividing wall and this closure body, which has at least one recess extending at least partially around it. In this case, the passage region is usually immediately adjacent to the closure body. The piston element is so far formed substantially symmetrically to the partition wall. In a corresponding way symmetrically thought to an axis of symmetry are the inputs and Outlet ports. By this configuration, a faulty mounting can be avoided. It does not matter in this embodiment how the piston element is inserted into the cylindrical recess.

In view of this and also to simplify the production of the pressure compensation regulator, it is proposed with a further preferred development to form the housing by means of two essentially identical housing elements, each of which forms an inlet and an outlet connection. Thus, these housing parts can be prepared in the same molds and machined exciting after the same process, which significantly simplifies the production. In this case, the inlet and outlet nozzles of the housing elements usually have internal or external thread, which have usual diameters in the sanitary technology for households to connect conventional lines of a domestic water installation to the pressure equalization regulator according to the invention. The inlet stubs usually extend radially to the cylindrical compensation chamber and thus at right angles to the direction of movement of the piston and the valve body. This prevents the pressure on the input side from affecting the position of the piston element. Although the outlet can also go radially from the cylindrical compensation chamber. The design should, however, be such that the pressure exerted on the outlet side acts directly on the piston in order to effectively pressure control this piston. Thus, the inlet ports are usually within a swept area of the piston and the valve body, whereas the outlet ports are outside this range.

The invention further relates to a water transfer system for a drinking or service water system, which may be formed or further developed as described above. In the water transfer system closing organs for the cold water supply and the hot water supply, the pressure compensation regulator and the water meters for the cold water discharge and the hot water discharge are combined into one module. Preferably, the housing of the closure members are directly connected to the housing of the pressure balance regulator and these preferably directly to the housing of the water meter.

The water transfer system can essentially consist of a single assembly, which can be mounted as a whole. The sub-elements of the assembly may be mechanically connected to each other, wherein the mechanical connection can be made directly through the assembly itself. The summary of the sub-elements to an assembly may facilitate the installation of the water transfer system in a residential unit of a building. In this case, the water transfer system can be mounted both at the completion of the residential unit as well as subsequently. The water transfer system is installed at the central supply lines for cold water and hot water of the residential unit.

In this way, a water transfer system with a compact and simple connection technology for a drinking water or service water system can be made available, so that space can be saved.

It is preferred that the water transfer system include a water transfer system housing having an opening or door or a removable lid for receiving the assembly. As a result, an implementation of assembly, maintenance, repair or cleaning work allows and / or facilitated. The water transfer system housing can be firmly connected to the assembly, or the assembly is loosely arranged in the housing.

Preferably, the Wasserübernahmesystemgehäuse is designed for attachment to or under plaster. Alternatively, the water delivery system may be configured as a pre-wall installation. The arrangements on plaster or as a pre-wall installation can be inexpensive and facilitate subsequent installation and facilitate. An arrangement under plaster can be space-saving and visually inconspicuous.

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the pressure compensation element is provided for itself or together with the cold water and the hot water side associated closure member and / or associated water meters in a foamed assembly housing. In this way, a simple assembly and handling is possible, especially if the pressure compensation element is combined with other components.

The invention further relates to a residential unit for a building comprising several residential units. The housing unit comprises an apartment entrance, wherein at the entrance to the apartment a water transfer system, which may be designed or developed as described above, is arranged. In this way, the at least one sampling valve in the housing unit, a substantially equal pressure of the cold water and the hot water are provided, space for a pressure compensator in the vicinity of the valve can be saved.

It is preferred that the housing unit have multiple water transfer systems as above be trained or educated includes. In particular, the residential unit may comprise a plurality of cold water supply lines and hot water supply lines, which are each connected to a pressure equalization regulator in order to provide the discharges a substantially equal water pressure available.

The invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings with reference to preferred embodiments, wherein the features shown below, both individually and in combination may represent an aspect of the invention. Show it:

1 an embodiment of a portion of a drinking and domestic water system in a perspective side view; and

2 the embodiment according to 1 in a perspective sectional view.

In 1 is a drinking or service water system 1 represented, which can be installed in a building, not shown, several units having. The drinking or wastewater system is connected to a not shown connected to the public water supply network house connection and a non-illustrated connected to the public sewer network sewage pipe, and includes a leading to only one of the housing units cold water supply 40 Provision of cold water in a residential unit and a leading only to these units hot water supply 42 Provision of hot water in the unit. In the residential unit at least one not shown suitable for the removal of cold water and hot water designed removal fitting is arranged, the drainage side dewatering in a leading to the sewer pipe sewer.

The cold water supply 40 is with a leading to the housing units cold water drainage 44 and the hot water supply 42 with a leading to the units hot water drainage 46 connected is. The cold water drainage 44 and the hot water drainage 46 are connected to the at least one extraction fitting. The cold water drainage 44 and / or the hot water drainage 46 can be connected to several extraction fittings. The cold water supply 40 and the hot water supply 42 are each about a closure member 48 shut off. The water meters are as calibrated water meters 50 educated. In the cold water drainage 44 and in the hot water drainage 46 is each a water meter 30 intended.

2 illustrates a perspective sectional view of the embodiment 1 and illustrates in particular details of a pressure balance regulator, which in the 1 and 2 with reference number 3 is marked. It can be seen that the cold water supply 40 and the hot water supply 42 each with an inlet nozzle 28 and the cold water discharge 44 and the hot water drainage 46 each with outlet 38 of the pressure balance controller 3 are connected. The connection is done by screwing. As can be seen, is a housing 2 of the pressure balance controller 3 directly to the housing of the water meter 50 on the one hand and directly with the housing of the closure member 48 on the other hand.

The aforementioned housing 2 of the pressure balance controller 3 is made up of two identically designed housing elements 4 educated. These housing elements 4 are over flanges molded onto it 6 connected together and close a cylindrical compensation chamber 8th in oneself, between attacks 10 is formed, the one of a piston element 12 swept area 14 define.

The piston element 12 is formed substantially hollow cylindrical with a circular cross-sectional area and centrally of a partition wall 16 interspersed. The piston element 12 forms the end a circumferentially continuous closure body 18 out, by the circumferential, a total of a valve body 19 forming walls of the hollow cylinder is formed. Between this closure body 18 and the partition 16 is a passband 20 with a plurality of circumferentially extending recesses 22 provided by axial webs 24 are separated from each other. Between the respective passages 20 on both sides of the partition 16 and this partition 16 is in turn by the piston element 12 a continuous hollow cylindrical area is formed, from which the partition wall 16 protrudes and against which the partition 16 inside sealing is attached.

The 2 shows the piston element 12 in a first end position. In this first end position is the piston element 12 in the 2 maximum shifted to the left and is against the local stop 10 in the 3 only by a light edge between the housing 2 and the piston element 12 can be seen. In this end position, the passband communicates 20 on the left side of the partition 16 with a reference number 26 marked inlet opening, which in the present case is the inlet port for warm drinking water. There, drinking water is at the pressure p_W_E. On the right side of the partition 16 forms the housing 2 another, also with reference numerals 26 marked inlet opening. At this other inlet opening 26 is cold water with the pressure p_K_E on. The two inlet openings 26 communicate with inlet nozzle 28 , each in one piece to the associated housing elements 4 are formed. Between these inlet ports 28 form the housing elements 4 each grooves in which seals 30 are inserted, which the housing 2 opposite the outer periphery of the piston element 12 caulk. In every position of the piston element 12 close these seals 30 the partition 16 between them, so that a passage of fluid from a marked with the reference I left area of the compensation chamber 8th is prevented in the other, right provided area II.

In the 2 is with reference numerals 32 an annular groove, which is the respective inlet opening 26 radially surrounds and absorbs. The axial extent of the annular groove 32 corresponds to the axial extent of the recess 22 , Adjacent to this ring groove 32 is by a suitable fit between the piston element 12 and the cylindrical compensation chamber 8th a valve seat 34 educated. At this valve seat 34 lies in the first end position shown the right provided closure body 18 sealingly, so that the second area II associated with the inlet opening 26 is closed.

Each housing element 4 forms with reference numerals 36 characterized Auslausöffnungen, radially from the cylindrical compensation chamber 8th but axially behind the stops 10 are provided and thus not from the movement of the piston element 12 be swept over. The outlet openings 36 each lead to outlet 38 , each in one piece to the associated housing elements 4 are formed. At the left in the figure outlet 36 hot water is discharged with the pressure p_W_A in the direction of a sampling valve, not shown. At the right outlet 36 cold water is discharged with the outlet pressure p_K_A.

As the description shows, in the embodiment shown drinking cold water flows from above on the right side into the fitting according to the invention, ie the pressure compensation regulator 3 ; the domestic hot water according to the left side. The drawing illustrates the position of the piston element 12 with unequal pressures on the cold water and hot water side. The two inlet pressures p_W_E and p_K_E do not change the position of the piston element 12 because these are radially relative to the direction of movement of the piston element 12 Provide flow. The pressure is applied radially on the piston outside. Thus, pressure differences on the input side do not affect the position of the piston element 12 out. In contrast, however, pressures on the output side p_K_A or p_W_A very well have an effect on the position of the piston element 12 because these pressures in the flow direction behind the valve seats 34 and thus directly on the partition 16 Act.

In the representation according to the 2 It can be assumed that the corresponding pressure p_K_A is greater in the region II than the pressure p_W_A. This is the piston element 12 in the in the 3 shown end position and against the left stop 10 postponed. It follows that the closure body 18 sealing to the valve seat 34 rests and the flow with drinking cold water in the right part of the cylindrical compensation chamber 8th is prevented. On the left side, with a maximum throughput, domestic hot water flows into the cylindrical compensation chamber 8th , especially in the interior of the hollow cylindrical piston element 12 one. Since no drinking cold water can be tracked from the inlet side, the pressure on the outlet side of the drinking cold water will inevitably decrease, with the result that the relative pressure in the first region I causes the piston element 12 adjusted to the right and the inlet opening 26 for the drinking cold water initially little is opened. From the inlet side flows through the inlet opening 26 then cold water into the second area II of the cylindrical compensation chamber 8th after, until a pressure equilibrium is generated and both cold and hot water through the passages assigned to the areas I and II 20 of the valve body 19 can flow in or the piston element 12 against the other or the previously effective stop 10 butts again to one of the inlet openings 36 and the associated annular groove 32 to close. Due to the design of the annular groove 32 flows water - in the illustrated embodiment drinking hot water - not only through the inlet opening 26 directly overlapping recess 22 one. Water can also be through the other, distributed circumferentially provided recesses 22 flow in through the annular groove 32 are deposited.

As shown, the pressure balance regulator 3 a simple and effective way to compensate for pressure differences between supplied cold and hot water flow. The pressure balance regulator 3 ensures that the requirement for equal pressures on the outlet side of the pressure compensator valve is met. One immediately behind the pressure balance regulator 3 with the derivatives 44 . 46 Accordingly, the associated fitting may hold the user's preset temperature because it is not exposed to time varying fluid pressures on the cold water and / or hot water side.

The compensation regulator 3 may be part of an assembly for a water delivery system for a drinking or service water system 1 be. The assembly includes the closure members 48 for the cold water supply 40 and the hot water supply 42 , the pressure balance regulator 3 and the water meters of cold water discharge 42 and the hot water drainage 46 , The water transfer system may include a water transfer system housing having an opening for receiving the assembly for easy maintenance and repair. The water transfer system housing can be mounted on plaster.

That in the 1 and 2 excerpts shown drinking or service water system 1 or the water transfer system described above may be arranged in a housing unit for a multi-residential building. The housing unit may comprise several water transfer systems with several supply lines from the public water supply network.
