Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Trinkwasserleitungssystem mit mindestens einem Kaltwasserstrang (7.1, 7.2 ... 7.n), der in Form einer Reihenleitung oder Ringleitung ausgeführt ist und mindestens ein als Entnahmestelle dienendes Zapfventil (10.1, 10.2, 10.3) und einen Abgang aufweist, wobei an dem Abgang ein Spülkasten (14) angeschlossen oder ein eine Toiletten- oder Urinalspülung auslösendes Ventil angeordnet ist, und wobei bei einer Ausführung des Kaltwasserstrangs als Reihenleitung der Spülkasten oder das eine Toiletten-oder Urinalspülung auslösende Ventil am Ende des Kaltwasserstrangs angeordnet ist oder bei einer Ausführung des Kaltwasserstrangs als Ringleitung der Spülkasten oder das eine Toiletten- oder Urinalspülung auslösende Ventil in einem die Mitte der Ringleitung umfassenden Bereich, der sich über eine Leitungslänge von 30% der Ringleitungslänge erstreckt, angeordnet ist. Zum Erhalt der geforderten Trinkwasserhygiene und zur Vermeidung eines unnötig hohen Wasserverbrauchs ist das erfindungsgemäße Trinkwasserleitungssystem mit einer elektronischen Steuerung (15) versehen, die mit einer Zeitmesseinrichtung versehen ist und über einen Sensor eine Trinkwasserentnahme aus dem Kaltwasserstrang erfasst, wobei der Sensor bei einer Trinkwasserentnahme aus dem Kaltwasserstrang die Zeitmesseinrichtung aktiviert, und wobei die elektronische Steuerung bei Überschreiten eines vorgegebenen oder vorgebbaren Zeitintervalls seit der letzten Trinkwasserentnahme das Ventil oder eine Betätigungsvorrichtung zur Auslösung einer Toiletten- bzw. Urinalspülung ansteuert.

Figure imgaf001
The invention relates to a drinking water supply system with at least one cold water line (7.1, 7.2 ... 7.n), which is designed in the form of a series line or ring line and at least one serving as a sampling point dispensing valve (10.1, 10.2, 10.3) and an outlet, wherein a cistern (14) is connected to the outlet or a toilet or Urinalspülung triggering valve is arranged, and wherein in an embodiment of the cold water strand as a series line cistern or a toilet or urinal flush valve is disposed at the end of the cold water line or at a Execution of the cold water line as a ring line cistern or a toilet or urinal flushing valve in a center of the ring line comprehensive area extending over a length of 30% of the loop length is arranged. To obtain the required drinking water hygiene and to avoid unnecessarily high water consumption, the drinking water supply system according to the invention is provided with an electronic control (15) which is provided with a time measuring device and a sensor detects a drinking water removal from the cold water line, the sensor in a drinking water removal from the Kaltwasserstrang activates the time measuring device, and wherein the electronic control controls when exceeding a predetermined or predeterminable time interval since the last drinking water removal the valve or an actuator for triggering a toilet or urinal flush.
