Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a device for dispensing a fluid, in particular a measured amount of fluid, from at least one tank.
  • a legally approved measuring device For the delivery of mineral oil products, such as fuel oil, to the end customer usually a legally approved measuring device must be used, on the one hand allows an accurate measurement of the flow volume and on the other hand prevents air pockets, especially air bubbles, the product to be dispensed are added.
  • a device with a measuring device designed for this purpose is for example in the EP 0 855 576 A1 described.
  • the liquid is discharged via a pipe from a tank, wherein a pump and a counter are provided on the pipe. Further, a degassing tank and a gas bubble sensor is provided on the pipe upstream of the counter.
  • the bubble fraction can be measured by means of the gas bubble sensor and the power of the pump can be controlled accordingly. Is it coming, especially for To stop the delivery, to an excessive Heileinschlag, so the pump can be stopped, it can be provided that in the degassing still so much product remains that it is ensured that no gas enters the meter. In the pipeline thus remains at the end of dispensing a residual volume of the product.
  • the residual volume contained in the pipeline system at the end of delivery may typically be up to 30 liters.
  • the residual volume contained in the pipeline can lead to mixing and contamination of the subsequently discharged product.
  • contamination by residual volume amounts are to be avoided.
  • DE 197 33 715 C1 For example, a method of dispensing liquid from a multi-compartment tanker by gravity is known. According to the teaching of DE 197 33 715 C1 will be at the end of the delivery Closed bottom valve of the tank and vented the discharge line for emptying. During this emptying, the electronic registration of the count signals of a spool counter or turbine counter, which is intended to determine the amount of liquid dispensed, is stopped. The volume of liquid dispensed during the emptying of the residue is taken into account by adding a previously determined value to the volume value registered until then in an electronic control device. However, in particular when there are air pockets in the pipe system, this approach can not be sufficiently accurate with regard to the legal requirements.
  • the DE 100 46 921 C1 and the US 5,505,335 describe a procedure in which residual fluid contained in the line at the end of dispensing is returned to the tank.
  • the DE 200 21 937 U1 relates to a system for dispensing liquid from a tank by gravity or by means of a pump.
  • "Gravity delivery" it is intended to empty the line system downstream of the bottom valve. If the liquid level reaches a certain measuring point, the signal of a volumetric counter is no longer counted. Rather, it is assumed that the remainder of the liquid quantity downstream of the measuring point is always the same and this quantity is added to the quantity measured by the counter.
  • the WO 2005/113168 A1 discloses a method for operating tank farm systems in which liquids are discharged from a tank into a pipe system. It is provided that the liquid to be discharged from the tank is divided after leaving this at a branching point into two separate part streams, these separated streams are transported separately to a junction point, combined there and subsequently discharged.
  • a method for selectively measuring the amount of liquid or vacancy in the individual chambers of a tanker or the filling state in the pipe section between a bottom valve and a filling and dispensing valve of the respective chamber emerges. It is provided that at a single measuring point per chamber below a liquid column, which is formed below a low-lying point of the pipe section, the pressure is measured, which adjusts temporarily after introducing a predetermined amount of gas under a predetermined pressure.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a method and a device for dispensing a fluid, which ensure high product purity with high accuracy in determining the amount of fluid delivered.
  • the fluid is conveyed out of the tank via a delivery line and the amount of discharged fluid is measured.
  • the delivery line is shut off by means of a tank shut-off device, in particular a bottom valve, and subsequently Residual fluid located on the tank-remote side of the Tankabsperr adopted is removed from the feed line and is also discharged, wherein the amount of the discharged residual fluid is measured.
  • a basic idea of the invention can be seen in the fact that a residual amount of fluid contained in the delivery line after completion of delivery, which can also be referred to as carry-over volume, is not pumped into intermediate tanks or pumped back into the tank, but is delivered to the customer.
  • a fluid quantity measurement is carried out in the residual fluid volume, so that the legal requirements is met.
  • the delivery line system is emptied after delivery, so that the risk of mixing by residual fluid is reduced.
  • a discharge amount measurement is carried out during the entire dispensing operation, including the discharge of the residual fluid.

  • a further aspect of the invention lies in the fact that the residual fluid is discharged via a rearing line which branches off from the delivery line and which preferably opens again into the delivery line at a location further away from the tank. This makes it possible to prevent the occurrence of mixing by residual fluid amounts in dead spaces of the rearing line as far as possible. If the strainer line re-opens at a downstream location of the conveyor line, it is possible to deliver from one and the same dispensing opening during the entire dispensing process, which is a particularly simple procedure.
