Definitions
- the invention relates to a valve for switching fluid paths, in particular for systems with a pressure exchanger, which has flowed through in alternate directions pipes, with a housing comprising an inlet piece, an outlet piece and a connection piece for a pipe, the fitting at least one Shut-off body which is connected to an actuator which communicates with a control device which is adapted to establish a fluid flow between the inlet piece and the connecting piece or between the connecting piece and the outlet piece.
- Such a fitting is used in pressure exchangers, as used for example in seawater desalination plants by the reverse osmosis process.
- a seawater stream is fed under high pressure membrane modules. Pure water is forced through the membrane while the salt dissolved in the water is retained. The proportion flowing through is referred to as the permeate stream, the retained fraction as the retentate stream.
- the retentate stream is enriched in salts and still has a high pressure.
- Pressure exchangers consist of at least two pipelines. Inside the tubes, a displaceable separating body can be arranged. At the beginning of a cycle, the first pipe is filled with seawater. The separator is located at one end of the tube. Now, high-pressure retentate fed. The seawater and the high-pressure retentate are separated by the separating body. The high-pressure retentate forces the seawater out of the pipe and feeds it to the membrane modules. The high-pressure retentate releases its pressure and becomes a low-pressure retentate.
- the second tube is initially filled with low-pressure retentate. Then the second pipe is fed with seawater. Seawater and low-pressure retentate are separated by a separating body. The seawater pushes the low pressure retentate out of the second tube.
- WO 2010/091988 A1 a fitting with a housing made of plastic is described.
- the fitting is used in coffee machines with flow rates of 400 mL / min and a maximum working pressure of 2.5 bar.
- the fitting has an inlet channel and three outlet channels. By activating solenoid valves, the inlet port is connected to one of the outlet ports.
- WO 2004/080576 A1 describes a fitting which is suitable for use in pressure exchangers in seawater desalination plants.
- a rotatable control element is arranged within a housing, which is driven by a motor via a drive shaft.
- a fitting for low-pressure switching is described in DE 103 10 662 A1.
- a flow divider Within a housing of the valve is a flow divider. On each end face of the flow divider, a rotating disk-shaped control is arranged.
- WO 2010/141013 A1 describes * a reverse osmosis system with a pressure exchanger in which a disk valve is used as a flow divider.
- JP 2010253344 A a reverse osmosis system is known in which in the lines leading to the pressure exchanger or away from this each pure open / close valves are arranged, which are designed as slide valves.
- the invention has for its object to provide a fitting with the features described above, which is inexpensive and allows a low pressure surge switching of fluid streams. With the fitting should be operable in pressure exchangers and an odd number of tubes. In addition, a reliable operation with low maintenance should be guaranteed. Furthermore, the shut-off should be easy to operate even at a high back pressure. By using these fittings a clear and compact design of a pressure exchanger for a reverse osmosis system is to be ensured. This object is achieved in that in each case a shut-off body is arranged in the inlet piece and the Ausiass published, which are axially displaceable for varying the size of flow openings.
- a fitting is connected to one side of the pressure exchanger, which has two axially displaceable shut-off body within a housing.
- each shut-off body is connected to a separate actuator.
- the switching operation is carried out by axial displacement of the shut-off body, which are arranged in the inlet piece and Ausiass published of the housing.
- the fitting according to the invention is designed much clearer and can be manufactured inexpensively.
- a particularly low-pressure Umschaltvorgahg is accomplished.
- the valve works largely trouble-free, so that only a small amount of maintenance is required.
- the fitting is not a pure switching fitting in which only a completely open or completely closed distinction is made between the states, but a regulating fitting which, in addition to the pure switching, makes it possible to regulate the fluid flow.
- the housing is an integral part, in particular a casting, which is formed by the inlet piece, the Ausiasswin and the connector. These are preferably nozzles, which are integrally formed on the housing.
- the inlet port, the outlet port and the connecting piece are formed integrally with the housing.
- the valve is operated in periodic cycles.
- the flow-through opening in the outlet piece is completely closed.
- the shut-off valve opens in the inlet piece.
- the flow-through opening in the inlet piece becomes larger until it is completely opened.
- the flow opening in the inlet piece remains fully open.
- the shut-off valve closes in the inlet section. The size of the flow opening in the inlet piece is reduced.
- the flow opening in the inlet section is completely closed.

- the flow opening in the outlet piece increases.
- the flow port of the outlet is fully open.
- a third phase closes the shut-off of the outlet piece.
- the flow opening in the outlet piece is reduced.
- the actuators are controlled by the control device so that when opening and / or closing a flow opening, the actuating speed initially increases with a predetermined gradient and then takes place at a constant actuating speed. This reduces pressure surges.
- a component is connected to the inlet piece. The flow passage is formed between the inlet of the housing and the component. The shut-off is guided during its axial displacement of the housing and / or the component. When closing and opening the fluid flows perpendicular to the movement of the shut-off.

- the shut-off body in the inlet piece is preferably cylindrical.
- the component, which is connected to the inlet piece comprises a hollow cylindrical guide element which projects into the inlet piece. The guide element is closed towards the on-flow direction, so that the guide element is cup-shaped. The cylindrical shut-off shifts when opening and closing in the hollow cylindrical guide element.
- shut-off body closes the flow opening in the inlet piece, then the retentate acts perpendicular to the outer lateral surface of the cylindrical shut-off body. This facilitates opening, as in contrast to conventional fittings no force in the direction of movement of the shut-off but perpendicular acts.
- the hollow cylindrical guide element is formed by the housing itself.
- the shut-off is also cylindrical and moves in the hollow cylindrical guide element.
