Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for adjustment and operation of a equipped with a centrifugal pump sewage lifting plant, which serves to promote fäkalien inconveniencem or faecal-free wastewater and optionally of surface water in a channel system, wherein the preferably via a check valve, in particular a non-return valve in a pipeline to be pumped wastewater occurs below a defined backflow level for the channel system, and wherein a minimum flow rate is specified for the promotion.
  • the invention relates to the wastewater lifting plant itself.
  • Wastewater lifting plants which have to promote accumulating water below the backflow level of a sewer system, are usually arranged in residential buildings. Above all, they serve to extract sewage-containing wastewater, which accumulates in the cellars of such residential buildings. Therefore, they are often referred to as Hurkalienhebeanlagen.
  • the existing geodetic head and the dynamic losses due to the flow are determined first. Based on this data, a pipeline characteristic is determined. Now, the minimum and maximum flow rates are calculated from the minimum and maximum flow rates prescribed by the standard and entered in a prepared diagram. In the diagram, the characteristics of several available lifting systems are conveniently drawn. One within the permissible range, the point of intersection between the lifting system and the piping characteristic gives the sought-after indication of a suitable lifting system.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a method that overcomes the indicated problems of interpretation and provides a particular application adapted and working without disturbing noise sewage lifting system.
  • This object is achieved for a system of the type mentioned according to the invention by a method which initially determined for different significant operating points rotational speeds of the centrifugal pump with the help of one equipped with a programmable frequency converter, the centrifugal pump driving electric motor in a fully installed lifting system, which together with the resulting data stored in a central unit controlling the plant and their further operation are based.
  • the inventive method determined by itself all relevant parameters of the concrete system and adjusts the lifting system accordingly.
  • This self-adjustment has the advantage that the lifting system is operated in the optimum flow velocity range and thus do not cause the mentioned noise.
  • the control used for self-adjustment can additionally take on a variety of monitoring tasks to self-help.
  • An expedient embodiment of the method according to the invention provides that when a first or recommissioning of sewage lifting the centrifugal pump is ramped up to a maximum speed and turned off before reaching a still suitable for promoting minimum sewage levels, then switched on with closed check member, the centrifugal pump again and whose speed is steadily increased, the speed reached when opening the check member is stored as the zero speed corresponding height speed, whereupon the predetermined minimum flow speed corresponding speed is determined and stored.
  • the determination of the predetermined minimum flow speed corresponding speed can be done in different ways.
  • the speed can be determined by calculation.
  • the system characteristic curve defined by the determined zero-point delivery head
  • the pump characteristic curve are cut at a quantity point which corresponds to the minimum flow rate.
  • the speed in question can also be determined by a flow meter arranged in the pipeline. Conveniently, a non-return valve designed according to the dynamic pressure principle is used as a flow meter.
  • a lifting system operating with the method according to the invention is also capable of undertaking monitoring tasks during operation.
  • the method recognizes due to a suitably designed evaluation scheme, a blockage of the check member or a flow disturbance in the pipeline, and it can derive a remedial action.
  • a detected disturbance of the flow the speed of the centrifugal pump can be increased, so to speak, a purge flow caused. Only after exceeding a predetermined period of time, a shutdown signal and / or a warning signal is then given to persist the fault.
  • a sewage lifting plant using a method according to the invention with a centrifugal pump for conveying sewage-containing or faecal-free wastewater and / or surface water into a sewer system has an electric motor equipped with a programmable frequency converter for driving the centrifugal pump.
  • the non-return valve connected downstream of the centrifugal pump may be equipped with a sensor which signals the opening of the non-return valve. It is also advantageous when using the method according to the invention if the non-return valve can be used as a flow meter according to the dynamic pressure principle. This facilitates the adjustment, since this can be used to determine the achievement of the prescribed minimum flow rate. In addition, a constant control of the operation of the lifting system is possible with the flow meter.
  • the EP 1 138 950 A1 discloses a pressure booster to which consumers are connected.
  • a liquid pump is driven by an electric motor and a controller is used to compare an actual value of an output pressure of the liquid pump with a predetermined setpoint of Output pressure.
  • the controllability of the pump power by varying the pump drive speed is used to cover fluctuating consumption values at constant pressure or sliding pressures according to predetermined criteria.
  • this is placed in a kind of oscillating state in which consumption levels near zero, the actual value exceeds the setpoint of the pressure, resulting in a Abregeln the engine and thus to a pump shutdown.
  • the initially described problems of a sewage lifting plant is promoted in the sewage or surface water in a sewer system, are by the EP 1 138 950 A1 unsolved.
  • DE 35 20 538 A discloses a plant for the delivery of milk, wherein a centrifugal pump is designed with frequency converter. The control of the plant deals with the problem of cavitation.
  • the in the Fig. 1 shown system is arranged for the most part below the backflow level 1, which is characterized here by a triangle.
  • the plant comprises a collecting container 2, which is connected to a sewer line 3, and a delivery line 4, which opens into a sewer 5.
  • a - not shown - centrifugal pump is arranged, which promotes from the sewer 3 flowing fäkalalien Vietnameses and fäkalientransports wastewater via a check valve 6 in the sewer 5.
  • the method according to the invention not only eliminates problems with the design. This procedure also allows plant operation with continuous self-checking and automatic correction of minor disturbances, which, if not remedied, could lead to major disruptions or even equipment failure. This is based on in the Fig. 3 outlined sewage lifting unit explains:
  • the lifting system is equipped with a centrifugal pump 8 whose electric motor 9 is provided with a programmable frequency converter 10.
  • the centrifugal pump 8 can therefore be operated at different speeds.
  • the centrifugal pump 8 is followed by a check valve 11, which is equipped with an opening of the check valve 11 reporting sensor.
  • the Lifting system has a collecting container 12, in which a level sensor 13 is provided, which responds to three different preset fluid levels: at a minimum fluid level, it gives the signal “Abpump sunny OFF", at a normal high water level, it gives the signal “Abpump sunny day”, and at a he reports "flood ALARM" the water level exceeding the latter level.
  • the centrifugal pump 8 is raised again on a speed ramp, wherein the speed is stored at which the sensor of the check valve 11 "Open" reports.
  • the speed stored here is directly related to the zero-point head, which in turn corresponds to the geodetic head.
  • the lifting system is adjusted for further operation.
  • the method according to the invention is also suitable to optimize this further operation and to protect against various disturbances:
  • the method can be used to effect a gentle closing of the non-return valve 11 by shutting down the centrifugal pump 8 via a speed ramp.
  • the system operating with the method or the control equipped accordingly is capable of detecting a blockage of the non-return valve 11 or an incipient clogging within the hydraulic part and reacting appropriately thereto. If a short-term speed increase with the flushing effect achieved thereby is not sufficient to eliminate the fault, the system can trigger a warning and / or a switch-off signal.
