Description
L'invention se rattache au secteur technique des moyens de filtration de l'eau d'un bassin de piscine notamment.The invention relates to the technical sector of the means of filtration of water in a swimming pool in particular.
Il est connu, pour assurer la filtration de l'eau d'un bassin de piscine, d'utiliser des ensembles qui intègrent les fonctionnalités d'un système traditionnel, à savoir essentiellement le pompage de l'eau, la filtration de l'eau et le refoulement de cette dernière dans le bassin de la piscine. Pour l'essentiel, ces ensembles compacts comprennent deux parties distinctes.It is known to ensure the filtration of water from a basin of pool, to use sets that integrate the functionality of a traditional system, namely essentially pumping water, filtration of the water and the discharge of the latter into the basin of the swimming pool. Essentially, these compact sets consist of two parts distinct.
L'une de ces parties est destinée à être immergée dans l'eau du bassin de la piscine, et reçoit les moyens de filtration de tous types connus et appropriés. L'autre partie est située en dehors du bassin de la piscine et reçoit au moins une pompe d'aspiration et de refoulement. Des tuyauteries de liaison sont disposées entre les deux parties, pour relier les moyens de filtration aux moyens de pompage. En outre, la partie immergée dans l'eau du bassin de la piscine présente, généralement, au moins une buse de refoulement de l'eau aspirée. Chacune des parties constitue un caisson, lesdites parties étant protégées par un couvercle. De même, ces deux parties peuvent être indépendantes l'une de l'autre et reliées par tout moyen connu pour constituer un ensemble unitaire ou bien, ces deux parties peuvent former, par moulage, ou tout autre procédé de fabrication, un ensemble compact unitaire. One of these parts is intended to be immersed in the water of the pool basin, and receives filtration means of all known types and appropriate. The other part is located outside the pool basin and receives at least one suction and discharge pump. Pipes are arranged between the two parts, to connect the means of filtration by pumping means. In addition, the part immersed in water of the pool basin generally has at least one nozzle backflow of sucked water. Each of the parts constitutes a box, said parts being protected by a cover. Likewise, these two parts can be independent of each other and linked by any known means to constitute a unitary unit or, these two parts can form, by molding, or any other manufacturing process, an assembly compact unit.
A partir de cette conception, on distingue essentiellement, deux formes de réalisations.From this conception, there are essentially two forms of achievement.
Comme il ressort de l'enseignement de FR-A-2554857, l'ensemble concerne un bloc compact constituant transversalement un cavalier en forme de U renversé, afin d'être disposé à cheval sur le rebord de la piscine. Ou bien, comme il ressort par exemple de l'enseignement de FR-A-2725634, l'ensemble compact, peut constituer directement un panneau ou escalier filtrant en ce sens que la partie destinée à être immergée dans l'eau du bassin de la piscine est agencée pour être accouplée directement avec les autres panneaux constitutifs du bassin.As is clear from the teaching of FR-A-2554857, the whole concerns a compact block transversely constituting a U-shaped jumper overturned, in order to be placed astride the edge of the pool. Or, as appears for example from the teaching of FR-A-2725634, all compact, can directly form a filter panel or staircase in this sense that the part intended to be immersed in the water of the basin of the pool is arranged to be coupled directly with the others constituent panels of the basin.
Comme indiqué précédemment, une tuyauterie est disposée entre les deux compartiments de filtration et de pompage. Quelle que soit la forme de réalisation, les deux compartiments de filtration et de pompage doivent être séparés, notamment au niveau des tuyauterie de liaison, par des agencements évitant la pénétration de l'eau par débordement et/ou éclaboussures dans le compartiment de pompage, étant donné qu'il n'est pas concevable que le compartiment de pompage reçoive, ne serait ce que par accident, une partie de l'eau du bassin de la piscine. En outre, il est nécessaire de créer une ventilation naturelle ou forcée au niveau du compartiment de pompage, pour permettre à la ou les pompes de travailler dans de bonnes conditions, en évitant tout effet de surchauffe.As indicated previously, a pipe is arranged between the two filtration and pumping compartments. Whatever embodiment, the two filtration and pumping compartments must be separated, in particular at the level of the connection piping, by arrangements preventing the ingress of water by overflow and / or splashing into the pumping compartment, since it is not conceivable that the pumping compartment receives, if only by accident, part of the water in the pool. In addition, it is necessary to create natural or forced ventilation at the level of the pumping compartment, to allow the pump (s) to work in good conditions, avoiding any effect of overheating.
Pour cette raison, étant considéré par ailleurs, que le compartiment de pompage ne peut pas être mis directement en communication à l'air libre, compte tenu des intempéries, il est nécessaire de ménager au niveau de la séparation entre les deux compartiments, une fente ou autre, apte à laisser passer un film d'air suffisant pour permettre l'aération du compartiment de pompage. La présence de ce film d'air ne permet donc pas de séparer de manière totalement étanche les deux compartiments. Dans ces conditions, on ne peut totalement exclure le risque, certes réduit, que le compartiment de pompage reçoive accidentellement une partie de l'eau que contient le compartiment immergé de filtration.For this reason, being considered elsewhere, that the pumping compartment cannot be put directly in outdoor communication, given the bad weather, it is necessary to spare at the level of the separation between the two compartments, a slit or the like, capable of allowing a sufficient film of air to pass through ventilation of the pumping compartment. The presence of this air film does not therefore does not allow the two to be completely sealed compartments. Under these conditions, we cannot totally exclude the risk, certainly reduced, that the pumping compartment receives accidentally some of the water in the submerged compartment filtration.
Ce problème est d'autant plus réel, dans le cas d'un panneau de filtration où le niveau de l'eau dans le compartiment immergé est beaucoup plus proche de la séparation entre les deux compartiments et par conséquent, beaucoup plus proche de la fente pour le passage de l'air de recyclage. A noter également que ces dispositions ne permettent pas une réelle circulation de l'air qui a tendance à être confiné.This problem is all the more real in the case of a panel of filtration where the water level in the submerged compartment is much closer to the separation between the two compartments and by therefore, much closer to the slot for the passage of air from recycling. Note also that these provisions do not allow real air circulation which tends to be confined.
L'invention s'est fixée pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients, de manière simple, sûre, efficace et rationnelle.The object of the invention is to remedy these drawbacks, in a simple, safe, efficient and rational way.
Le problème technique que se propose de résoudre l'invention, est d'avoir une meilleure étanchéité entre les deux compartiments de filtration et de pompage, afin d'éviter tout risque accidentel de passage d'eau entre les deux compartiments, tout en ayant pour objectif de pouvoir assurer le refroidissement, ou plus exactement l'aération, du compartiment de pompage.The technical problem which the invention proposes to solve, is to have a better seal between the two compartments of filtration and pumping, in order to avoid any accidental risk of passage of water between the two compartments, while having the objective of being able ensure the cooling, or more precisely the ventilation, of the compartment pumping.
Pour résoudre un tel problème, il a été conçu et mis au point un dispositif de refroidissement conforme à la revendication 1 annexée.To solve such a problem, it was designed and developed a cooling device according to claim 1 appended.
Autrement dit, compte tenu des caractéristiques à la base de l'invention, le problème technique que se propose de résoudre l'invention, est non plus de gérer les éventuels passages d'eau entre le compartiment d'aspiration et le compartiment de pompage mais de faire rentrer de l'air venant à l'extérieur tout en évitant les éventuels risques de passage d'eau provenant de l'extérieur, à savoir essentiellement l'eau de pluie, la fonte des neiges...In other words, taking into account the characteristics underlying the invention, the technical problem which the invention proposes to solve, is no longer to manage any water passages between the compartment and the pumping compartment but to bring in air coming outside while avoiding the possible risks of water passage from outside, mainly rainwater, melting of Snow ...
Avantageusement, pour résoudre le problème posé d'assurer l'aération du compartiment de pompage et, par conséquent, de mettre la troisième partie de l'ensemble compact en communication avec l'air extérieur, les agencements du couvercle ou de la partie de couvercle sont constitués par une zone présentant une pluralité de perforations débouchantes.Advantageously, to solve the problem posed of ensuring ventilation of the pumping compartment and, therefore, to put the third part of the compact assembly in communication with the air outside, the arrangements of the cover or the cover part are formed by an area having a plurality of perforations open out.
Comme indiqué, pour résoudre le problème posé d'éviter tout passage accidentel d'eau de pluie, ou autre, dans le compartiment de pompage, la troisième partie et la partie recevant la ou les pompes, sont séparées par des agencements permettant le passage de l'air tout en évitant le passage de l'eau éventuellement contenue dans ladite troisième partie.As indicated, to solve the problem of avoiding all accidental passage of rainwater, or other, into the compartment pumping, the third part and the part receiving the pump (s), are separated by arrangements allowing the passage of air while avoiding the passage of any water contained in said third part.
Dans ce but, différentes formes de réalisation peuvent être envisagées.For this purpose, different embodiments can be considered.
Par exemple, les agencements de séparation sont avantageusement constitués par une surface inclinée ou bien les agencements de séparation sont constitués par un espace vide en creux partiellement obturé par une nervure du couvercle pour constituer une chicane avec système d'évacuation de l'eau au droit de la chicane.For example, the separation arrangements are advantageously constituted by an inclined surface or else the separation arrangements are formed by an empty hollow space partially closed by a rib of the cover to form a baffle with water drainage system in front of the chicane.
De même, pour éviter tout risque de ruissellement au niveau de la face interne du couvercle, cette dernière présente avantageusement à proximité du compartiment de pompage, une nervure transversale faisant office de larmier.Similarly, to avoid any risk of runoff at the level of the inner face of the cover, the latter advantageously has near the pumping compartment, a transverse rib serving as drip.
Pour réaliser un ensemble compact et unitaire la troisième partie est avantageusement disposée dans le même plan que la partie recevant la ou les pompes et d'une manière sensiblement parallèle en faisant office de goulotte. To make a compact set and unitary the third part is advantageously arranged in the same plane as the part receiving the pump (s) and in a substantially parallel manner by making chute office.
Avantageusement, le fond de la troisième partie est percé pour l'évacuation de l'eau éventuelle qu'elle peut contenir. Le fond de la troisième partie est relié à une conduite d'évacuation.Advantageously, the bottom of the third part is drilled to evacuation of any water it may contain. The bottom of the third part is connected to an evacuation pipe.
Toujours en ayant pour objectif d'abaisser la température au niveau du compartiment de pompage, il est apparu intéressant de mettre en communication l'admission d'air du moteur directement avec l'extérieur. Pour résoudre un tel problème, la troisième partie est avantageusement mise en communication avec la pompe d'aspiration et de refoulement au moyen d'un organe tubulaire dont l'une des extrémités débouche desdites parties tandis que l'autre extrémité présente des agencements d'accouplement avec l'admission d'air du moteur de la pompe.Always with the objective of lowering the temperature level of the pumping compartment, it appeared interesting to set up communication of the engine air intake directly with the outside. To solve such a problem, the third part is advantageously put in communication with the suction and discharge pump by means of a tubular member, one end of which opens out from said parts while the other end has coupling arrangements with air intake from the pump motor.
Compte tenu de ces dispositions, il en résulte que l'air est aspiré directement à l'extérieur pour être dirigé au niveau du moteur de la pompe d'aspiration, de sorte que l'air chaud en résultant est immédiatement rejeté à l'extérieur, réalisant ainsi un parfait échange thermique.In view of these provisions, it follows that the air is sucked in directly outside to be directed to the pump motor suction, so the resulting hot air is immediately released to the exterior, thus achieving perfect heat exchange.
Pour abaisser la température à l'intérieur du caisson, recevant la pompe d'aspiration et de refoulement, la zone de la troisième partie dans laquelle débouche l'organe tubulaire présente avantageusement des parois transversales et latérales conformées pour constituer une enceinte étanche.To lower the temperature to inside the box, receiving the suction and discharge pump, the area of the third part into which the tubular member opens advantageously has transverse and lateral walls shaped to constitute a waterproof enclosure.
Des résultats avantageux sont obtenus, lorsque la paroi transversale est située à peu près au milieu pour séparer la troisième partie en deux zones très sensiblement équivalentes. Advantageous results are obtained when the wall transverse is located roughly in the middle to separate the third part in two very roughly equivalent zones.
Compte tenu de l'ensemble de ces caractéristiques, et dans le but de diminuer de manière importante le coût de fabrication, tout en ayant pour objectif d'obtenir un ensemble compact et unitaire, ce dernier est obtenu par rotomoulage, étant bien entendu que d'autres procédés peuvent être utilisés : injection de matière plastique, projection de polyester, thermoformage.Given all of these characteristics, and for the purpose to significantly reduce the manufacturing cost, while having for objective of obtaining a compact and unitary assembly, the latter is obtained by rotational molding, it being understood that other methods can be used: plastic injection, polyester spray, thermoforming.
L'invention est exposée ci-après plus en détail à l'aide des
figures des dessins annexés, dans lesquels :
Pour une meilleure compréhension de la suite de la description, on rappelle que l'ensemble compact de pompage et de filtration comprend deux parties distinctes (A) et (B). La partie (A) constitue directement un caisson et est destinée à être immergée dans l'eau du bassin de la piscine. La partie (A) reçoit au moins un élément filtrant (1) et au moins une buse de refoulement (2). Par ailleurs, la face avant et/ou les faces latérales de la partie (A) immergée dans l'eau, présentent, d'une manière parfaitement connue pour un homme du métier, des ouvertures connues sous le nom de skimmers, pour le passage de l'eau en provenance du bassin de la piscine. L'autre partie (B) constitue également un caisson situé à l'extérieur du bassin de la piscine et reçoit, au moins une pompe d'aspiration et de refoulement (3). Des tuyauteries (4) assurent la liaison entre le compartiment de filtration et le compartiment de pompage.For a better understanding of the rest of the description, remember that the compact pumping and filtration unit includes two separate parts (A) and (B). Part (A) directly constitutes a box and is intended to be immersed in the water of the swimming pool basin. The part (A) receives at least one filter element (1) and at least one nozzle for delivery (2). Furthermore, the front face and / or the lateral faces of the part (A) immersed in water, present, in a perfectly known to a person skilled in the art, openings known as skimmers, for the passage of water from the pool. The other part (B) also constitutes a box located outside the pool basin and receives, at least one suction pump and delivery (3). Tubes (4) provide the connection between the filtration compartment and pumping compartment.
L'élément de filtration (1) est disposé dans un support (5) dont le fond est relié par l'intermédiaire d'une crépine au moyen d'une tuyauterie (4a) à la pompe (3). Une autre tuyauterie (4b) assure le refoulement de l'eau aspirée dans le bassin de la piscine, en combinaison avec notamment la buse de refoulement (2). Ces dispositions techniques de filtration ne sont pas décrites en détail car parfaitement connues pour un homme du métier et peuvent faire l'objet de différentes variantes d'exécution.The filter element (1) is arranged in a support (5), the bottom is connected via a strainer by means of piping (4a) at the pump (3). Another piping (4b) ensures the water backflow drawn into the pool, in combination with the nozzle in particular discharge (2). These technical filtration provisions are not described in detail because perfectly known to a person skilled in the art and may be subject to different execution variants.
De même, les deux parties (A) et (B) sont reliées entre elles, soit directement, soit de manière rapportée, pour constituer un ensemble compact unitaire. L'ensemble ainsi constitué est conformé soit pour être disposé à cheval sur le rebord des parois du bassin de la piscine, soit pour constituer directement un panneau ou escalier de filtration, la partie (A) présentant dans ce cas, tout agencement pour être fixée en combinaison et en alignement avec les autres panneaux constitutifs du bassin de la piscine. Likewise, the two parts (A) and (B) are interconnected, i.e. directly, or in a reported manner, to constitute a set compact unit. The assembly thus formed is shaped either to be arranged astride the edge of the walls of the swimming pool basin, either directly constitute a filtration panel or staircase, part (A) having in this case any arrangement for being fixed in combination and in alignment with the other constituent panels of the swimming pool basin.
Suivant une caractéristique à la base de l'invention, les deux parties (A) et (B) sont séparées notamment au niveau des tuyauteries (4) d'une manière étanche, au moyen par exemple, d'une cloison (6). La partie (B) recevant la pompe (3) est en communication avec au moins une troisième partie (C). Un couvercle (7) assure l'obturation des deux parties (C) et (A), tandis qu'un couvercle (7c) assure l'obturation du compartiment de pompage (B). Bien évidemment, sans pour cela sortir du cadre de l'invention, le couvercle (7) peut être réalisé en plusieurs éléments correspondant à chacune des parties (A) (B) et (C).According to a characteristic underlying the invention, the two parts (A) and (B) are separated in particular at the level of the pipes (4) in a sealed manner, for example by means of a partition (6). The part (B) receiving the pump (3) is in communication with at least one third part (C). A cover (7) ensures the closure of the two parts (C) and (A), while a cover (7c) ensures the closure of the compartment pumping (B). Obviously, without going beyond the ambit of the invention, the cover (7) can be made of several elements corresponding to each of the parts (A) (B) and (C).
Le couvercle (7) notamment, présente des agencements pour mettre la troisième partie (C) en communication avec l'air extérieur. Avantageusement, le couvercle présente, au niveau de cette troisième partie (C), une pluralité de perforations (7a) débouchantes. Cette troisième partie (C) est disposée dans le même plan que la partie (B) recevant la ou les pompes (3) et de manière essentiellement parallèle en faisant office de goulotte (8). Cette goulotte (8) est donc en communication par au moins une ouverture (9) avec le compartiment de la partie (B) recevant la ou les pompes.The cover (7) in particular has arrangements for put the third part (C) in communication with the outside air. Advantageously, the cover has, at this third part (C), a plurality of through perforations (7a). This third part (C) is arranged in the same plane as the part (B) receiving the pumps (3) and essentially parallel by acting as chute (8). This chute (8) is therefore in communication by at least one opening (9) with the compartment of the part (B) receiving the one or more pumps.
Etant donné que la goulotte (8) est en communication avec l'air extérieur, au moyen des perforations (7a), il y aura une circulation d'air au niveau du compartiment de pompage et de l'espace libre de communication (9). Cette circulation d'air permet de refroidir la ou les pompes (3).Since the chute (8) is in communication with the air outside, by means of the perforations (7a), there will be air circulation at the level of the pumping compartment and the free communication space (9). This air circulation makes it possible to cool the pump (s) (3).
Suivant une autre caractéristique, la goulotte (8) et le compartiment de pompage (B) sont séparés par des agencements permettant, comme indiqué, le passage de l'air tout en évitant le passage de l'eau, éventuellement contenue dans ladite goulotte.According to another characteristic, the chute (8) and the pumping compartment (B) are separated by arrangements allowing, as indicated, the passage of air while preventing the passage of water, possibly contained in said chute.
Dans l'exemple de réalisation illustré figure 3, la séparation entre la goulotte (8) et le compartiment de pompage s'effectue par une surface inclinée (10).In the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 3, the separation between the chute (8) and the pumping compartment is effected by a surface inclined (10).
Dans l'exemple de réalisation illustré figure 4, la goulotte (8) est reliée au compartiment de pompage par un espace vide en creux (11) destiné à être partiellement obturé par une nervure (7b) du couvercle, afin de constituer, en combinaison, une chicane.In the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 4, the chute (8) is connected to the pumping compartment by a hollow hollow space (11) intended to be partially closed by a rib (7b) of the cover, so to constitute, in combination, a chicane.
Pour éviter tout effet de ruissellement au niveau de la face interne du couvercle (7), cette dernière présente transversalement, sur la totalité de sa largeur et à proximité de la séparation avec le compartiment de pompage, une nervure (7d) faisant office de larmier.To avoid any trickling effect on the face internal cover (7), the latter has transversely on the its entire width and close to the separation with the compartment pumping, a rib (7d) serving as a drip line.
Le fond de la troisième partie (C) ou goulotte (8) est percé pour l'évacuation de l'eau de pluie ou autre. De même, le fond de la goulotte est relié à un conduit (12) branché par exemple, au tout à l'égout. Il en est de même au niveau de la partie en creux (11) recevant la nervure (7b).The bottom of the third part (C) or chute (8) is drilled to the evacuation of rainwater or other. Likewise, the bottom of the chute is connected to a conduit (12) connected for example, to the main sewer. So is even at the level of the hollow part (11) receiving the rib (7b).
Pour diminuer la température à l'intérieur du caisson (B) recevant la pompe (3), il est apparu avantageux de mettre en communication son moteur (3a) directement avec l'air extérieur. Dans ce but, et comme le montre notamment la figure 5, la troisième partie (C), constituant la goulotte (8) en communication avec l'air extérieur par les perforations (7a) du couvercle, est en communication avec la pompe (3) au moyen d'un organe tubulaire (13). L'une des extrémités (13a) de l'organe tubulaire débouche dans la goulotte (8) et l'autre extrémité (13b) présente des agencements d'accouplement (14) avec l'admission d'air du moteur (3a) de la pompe (3). Par exemple, ces agencements (14) sont constitués par un volume en forme de cloche, conformé pour coiffer la section externe de la partie correspondante du moteur de la pompe. Ce volume en cloche (14) présente un manchon (14a) pour l'accouplement de l'extrémité (13b) de l'organe tubulaire (13).To decrease the temperature inside the receiving housing (B) the pump (3), it appeared advantageous to put its motor (3a) directly with the outside air. For this purpose, and as the shows in particular Figure 5, the third part (C), constituting the chute (8) in communication with the outside air by the perforations (7a) of the cover, is in communication with the pump (3) by means of a tubular member (13). One of the ends (13a) of the tubular member opens into the chute (8) and the other end (13b) has coupling arrangements (14) with the engine air intake (3a) of the pump (3). For example, these arrangements (14) are constituted by a bell-shaped volume, shaped to cover the outer section of the corresponding part of the pump motor. This bell volume (14) has a sleeve (14a) for coupling the end (13b) of the tubular member (13).
La zone (8a) de la goulotte dans laquelle débouche l'extrémité (13a) de l'organe tubulaire (13) présente des parois transversale (15) et latérale (16), conformées pour constituer une enceinte étanche. Avantageuse, la paroi transversale (15) est située très sensiblement au milieu de la goulotte (8) pour la séparer en deux zones très sensiblement équivalentes (8a) et (8b). Eventuellement, la paroi transversale (15) est prolongée pour séparer en deux le caisson (B) recevant la pompe d'aspiration et de refoulement (3).The area (8a) of the chute into which the end opens (13a) of the tubular member (13) has transverse walls (15) and side (16), shaped to constitute a sealed enclosure. Advantageously, the transverse wall (15) is located very substantially at middle of the chute (8) to separate it into two zones very substantially equivalents (8a) and (8b). Optionally, the transverse wall (15) is extended to separate the box (B) receiving the pump in two suction and discharge (3).
Compte tenu de ces dispositions, il apparaít que l'air est aspiré directement à l'extérieur pour être dirigé au niveau du moteur (3a) de la pompe, l'air en sortie du moteur étant immédiatement rejeté à l'extérieur, lui évitant ainsi de stagner à l'intérieur du caisson (B). On évite ainsi toute élévation anormale de température à l'intérieur du caisson recevant la pompe d'aspiration et de refoulement. Différents essais et mesures ont montré que l'on obtient à l'intérieur du caisson (B) une température très sensiblement égale à la température de l'air extérieur.Given these provisions, it appears that the air is sucked directly outside to be directed to the engine (3a) of the pump, the air at the outlet of the engine being immediately rejected outside, it thus avoiding stagnating inside the box (B). This avoids any abnormal rise in temperature inside the box receiving the suction and discharge pump. Different tests and measurements have shown that a very high temperature is obtained inside the box (B) substantially equal to the outside air temperature.
Suivant une autre caractéristique, et compte tenu des dispositions constructives, l'ensemble compact selon l'invention peut avantageusement être obtenu par rotomoulage, injection de matière plastique, thermoformage, projection de polyester...According to another characteristic, and taking into account the provisions constructive, the compact assembly according to the invention can advantageously be obtained by rotational molding, plastic injection, thermoforming, polyester spray ...
Les avantages ressortent bien de la description, en particulier on souligne et on rappelle la possibilité de séparer de manière étanche, le compartiment de pompage du compartiment de filtration, tout en permettant d'obtenir une circulation d'air au niveau du compartiment de pompage, avec le risque réduit, voire inexistant, que le compartiment de pompage soit soumis à l'action de l'eau de pluie ou autre, compte tenu d'une part, des agencements au niveau de la circulation de l'air et, d'autre part, de la forte probabilité que la goulotte ne sera jamais remplie d'eau ou autre.The advantages are apparent from the description, in particular one underlines and recalls the possibility of sealingly separating the pumping compartment of the filtration compartment, while allowing to obtain air circulation at the level of the pumping compartment, with the reduced, if not non-existent, risk of the pumping compartment being subject to rainwater or other action, taking into account, on the one hand, arrangements at the level of air circulation and, on the other hand, of the strong probability that the chute will never be filled with water or the like.
On observe également que la mise en communication du moteur de la pompe avec l'air extérieur dans les conditions indiquées permet de diminuer d'une manière significative la température à l'intérieur du caisson recevant ladite pompe. Il en résulte avantageusement une augmentation de la durée de vie du moteur et la suppression de tout effet néfaste sur les composants adjacents tels que le transformateur qui est soumis à l'influence de la température. On observe enfin qu'il est possible de diminuer la puissance absorbée du moteur, d'où une diminution des coûts.We also observe that the engine communication of the pump with the outside air under the conditions indicated allows significantly reduce the temperature inside the housing receiving said pump. This advantageously results in an increase of the life of the engine and the elimination of any harmful effect on the adjacent components such as the transformer which is subject to influence of the temperature. Finally, we observe that it is possible to reduce the absorbed power of the engine, resulting in lower costs.
