Schlauchsystem nicht das Messergebnis verfälschen können.This has the advantage that residual quantities in a supply line or hose system arranged downstream of the container can not falsify the measurement result.
Die Aufgabe bzgl. des Verfahrens wird gelöst durch ein Verfahren zum Dosieren eines in einem austauschbaren Behälter eines Dosiersystems angeordneten Mediums, das von einer Dosiersteuerung gesteuert über ein mit dem Behälter verbundenes Dosierventil einem Zielbehälter zugeführt wird, wobei vor Beginn des Dosiervorganges maschinenlesbare Codierungen, die an austauschbaren mit dem Medium in Berührung kommenden und als Einwegteile ausgebildetenThe task with respect to the method is achieved by a method for dosing a arranged in a replaceable container of a dosing medium, which is controlled by a dosing connected via a metering valve connected to the container to a target container, wherein prior to the beginning of the dosing machine-readable codes, the interchangeable with the medium coming into contact and trained as disposable parts
Systemkomponenten angeordnet sind, von einer Kommunikationseinheit über jeweils eigene Leseverbindungen ausgelesen und von der mit der Kommunikationseinheit in Verbindung stehenden Dosiersteuerung die Zulässigkeit der Verwendung der die Codierungen aufweisenden Systemkomponenten überprüft wird.System components are arranged, read by a communication unit via their own read connections and the admissibility of the use of the codings having system components is checked by the communicating unit in communication with the dosing.
Damit kann zuverlässig verhindert werden, dass ungeeignete nicht vorgesehene Systemkomponenten verwendet werden. Damit kann z.B. auch sichergestellt werden, dass Dosierventile zum Erhalt der Sortenreinheit immer nur für einen Flüssigkeitstyp bzw. ein Medium verwendet werden. Bei falschen bzw. unzulässigen Systemkomponenten kann der Dosiervorgang abgebrochen bzw. gesperrt und das Ereignis abgespeichert werden.This can reliably prevent unsuitable unintended system components from being used. Thus, e.g. It must also be ensured that metering valves are always used to maintain the purity of the variety only for one fluid type or one medium. If incorrect or impermissible system components are used, the dosing process can be aborted or blocked and the event saved.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung werden zur Überprüfung der Zulässigkeit der Verwendung von Systemkomponenten (zum Beispiel Einmalgebrauch, richtige Zuordnung von Dosierventil und Komponenten, richtige Komponente), deren Codierungen von der Dosiersteuerung mit in einem Systemkomponentenspeicher und/oder einem Identifikationsspeicher der Systemkomponenten und/oder in einer Datenbank abgelegten Daten verglichen.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, to check the permissibility of the use of system components (for example, single use, correct allocation of metering valve and components, correct component), their coding from the metering with in a system component memory and / or an identification memory of the system components and / or compared with data stored in a database.
Bei unzulässigen Systemkomponenten wird der Dosiervorgang abgebrochen bzw. gesperrt. Dabei kann mindestens in dem den unzulässigen Systemkomponenten zugeordneten Speicher ein Sperrvermerk eingeschrieben werden. Durch den Sperrvermerk wird sichergestellt, dass die unzulässigen Systemkomponenten nicht erneut verwendet werden.In the case of impermissible system components, the dosing process is aborted or blocked. In this case, at least in the memory allocated to the impermissible system components, a blocking note can be written. The lockout ensures that the invalid system components are not reused.
Die Identifikationsdaten des Behälters können in dem Systemkomponentenspeicher und/oder Identifikationsspeicher des mit dem Behälter verbundenen Dosierventils und/oder in einer Datenbank abgelegt werdenThe identification data of the container can be stored in the system component memory and / or identification memory of the dosing valve connected to the container and / or in a database
Dosierinformationen über den Dosiervorgang können insbesondere zur Dokumentation in dem Systemkomponentenspeicher und/oder Identifikationsspeicher und/oder einer Datenbank abgelegt werden. Dadurch wird eine Rückverfolgbarkeit des Dosierprozesses bis zum Hersteller ermöglicht.Dosing information about the dosing process can be stored in particular for documentation in the system component memory and / or identification memory and / or a database. This allows traceability of the dosing process to the manufacturer.
