Definitions

  • a submersible electric pump group which includes a pump driven by an electric motor controlled by a circuit ordered. Motor is energized as soon as a high level sensor detects the presence of the effluent.
  • the invention relates to a submersible electric pump group of the type mentioned above, in which one can dispense with having a sensor in low level to prevent defusing the pump, while having a very small amount of residual effluent in the receptacle.
  • a sensor of the level of the effluent in the receptacle is mounted on the pump and sends a signal to the control circuit change of state as soon as the effluent reaches this level.
  • the circuit of control includes a clock which is activated by the signal and which measures an initial duration of operation of the pump until it is defused, and means for determining a later operating time less longer than the original duration.
  • the invention also relates to a method for operating a submersible pump unit of the type indicated above, which consists of determine the initial operating time of the pump between a level given effluent to the receptacle and the level of defusing and to adopt, as a subsequent operating time of the pump, a time less than the initial duration.
  • the submersible electric pump group according to the invention is able to recognize the volume it must repress before stopping so as not to be defused.
  • the group When the group is to be put for the first time in a receptacle, we operate it, which determines the level of defusing in the receptacle.
  • the means of determination of a subsequent duration of operation determine a new duration, called subsequent duration of operation shorter than the initial duration, in so that, on the one hand, we are sure that there will be no more defusing, and that, on the other hand, we can make this later duration very close of the initial duration, so that the residual quantity of effluent remaining in the receptacle can be lowered to a very small value.
  • FIG. 1 represents a submersible electric pump group according to the invention which comprises a pump 1 having a suction opening 2 and a delivery pipe 3 outside a tank C, in which the group is intended to be placed to raise the effluent it contains.
  • the pump 1 is driven by an electric motor 4 controlled by a circuit 5 control in the form of a printed circuit board.
  • a sensor 6 of level which detects a high NH level in tank C, from which the group starts up and pushes back the effluent contained in tank C by the tubing 3.
  • FIG. 1 also shows a low NB level, at which wants the control circuit 5 to stop pump 1 and an ND level of defusing, symbolically represented in Figure 1 by the reference 7 but which in fact can be obtained by a sensor of a variation of the cosine ⁇ or of the intensity of motor 4 when the pump is about to prime.
  • the control circuit shown in Figure 2 comprises from the sensor 6 a conductor 8 leading to an entrance to a door 9 AND.
  • the second input of the AND gate is connected to the sensor 7 by a conductor 10.
  • the output of door 9 is connected by a conductor 11 to a junction point 12.
  • a conductor 13 leads to an entrance of a carries 14 OR, while another conductor 15 leads to a clock 16, which is connected by a conductor 17 to means 18 for determining of a later operating time shorter than the measured time by the clock 16.
  • Said means are connected by a conductor 19 to the input a door 20 AND the other input of which is connected by a conductor 21 and by via a junction point 22 to the sensor 6.
  • the junction point 22 is connected by a conductor 23 to an input of the means 18.
  • the output of the door 20 AND is connected by a conductor 24 to an input of door 14 OR the output of which is connected by a conductor 25 to a door 26 AND.
  • the other entry of door 26 AND is connected by a
  • the output of door 26 AND is connected by a conductor 28 to a relay 29 of power which controls by a driver 30 the motor 4 of the pump 1.
  • sensor 6 When putting the pump group 1, 4 for the first time in a tank C and when the level of effluent in the tank reaches the NH level, sensor 6 detects this level. It sends by driver 8, the door 9 AND, driver 11, point 12, driver 13, door 14 OR, conductor 25, AND gate, AND gate 26, conductor 28, relay 29 and conductor 30, a change of state signal which causes motor 4 to be switched on energized and drives the pump 1. Effuent is discharged outside the tank C via the delivery pipe 3. The level of effluent in tank C drops below the NH level.
  • the sensor 7 sends a signal from the conductor 10 change of state which arrives by the door 9 AND, by the driver 11, by the point 12 and by the driver 15 to the clock 16 which stops counting the operating time.
  • This duration is transmitted by the driver 17 to means 18 which determine a later operating time less longer than the original duration.
  • the signal corresponding to this subsequent duration is transmitted by conductor 19 to gate 20 AND and by conductor 24 to the gate 14 OR, then through conductor 25 and through gate AND and conductor 28 to the power relay 29, which by the driver 30 operates the motor 4 and therefore the pump 1 during the subsequent operating time, this time being calculated from the moment the effluent contained in the tank reaches again the NH level as noted by sensor 6.
