Definitions

  • the present patent application relates to a potable water system.
  • EP 2 466 019 A1 discloses a potable water system for a building comprising a hot water supply line, a cold water supply line and a plurality of water consumers branching of from the hot water supply line and the cold water supply line. In the region of each water consumer the hot water provided by the hot water supply line and the cold water provided by the cold water supply line becomes mixed thereby providing mixed water. The mixed water flows through a withdrawal line to a point of withdrawal of the respective water consumer.
  • the potable water system of EP 2 466 019 A1 further comprises a controller receiving an actual value of the hot water temperature within the hot water supply line and an actual value of the cold water temperature within the cold water supply line, wherein both temperatures are water consumer independent, and wherein the controller generates at least one control signal for preventing and/or counteracting microbiological growth within the potable water system on basis of the actual values of the hot water temperature and the cold water temperature.
  • the potable water system of EP 2 466 019 A1 allows to prevent and/or counteract microbiological growth only upstream of the mixing of the hot water and the cold water. Further on, the potable water system of EP 2 466 019 A1 provides prevention and/or counteraction of microbiological growth only commonly for all water consumers branching off from the respective hot water supply line and the respective cold water supply line.
  • WO 2009/047587 A1 allows a consumer individual prevention and/or counteracting against microbiological growth on basis of a signal of a temperature sensor assigned to a withdrawal line.
  • the potable water system is defined in the claim 1.
  • the potable water system according to present application allows to prevent and/or to counteract microbiological growth downstream of mixing valves individually for each water consumer.
  • the potable water system according to present application has improved characteristics against microbiological growth.
  • the controller receives actual values of two mixed water temperatures of each water consumer, namely an actual value of the mixed water temperature immediately downstream of the mixing valve or at the outlet of the mixing valve and an actual value of the mixed water temperature immediately upstream of the point of withdrawal of the respective water consumer.
  • the controller generates for each water consumer at least one individual control signal for preventing and/or counteracting microbiological growth within the potable water system on basis of the actual values of the two mixed water temperatures. This provides further improved characteristics against microbiological growth.
  • At least the actual values of the two mixed water temperatures and the actual value of the mixed water consumption volume are individual for each water consumer.
  • the actual values of the hot water temperature and the cold water temperature are individual for each water consumer, wherein the hot water temperature of each water consumer is measured at the first inlet of the respective mixing valve, and wherein the cold water temperature of each water consumer is measured at the second inlet of the respective mixing valve.
  • the controller generates automatically a control signal for the mixing valve and a control signal for a withdrawal valve of the respective water consumer in order to flush the second inlet of the respective mixing valve and the withdrawal line of the respective water consumer if the controller determines that in case of a closed mixing valve the actual value of the cold water temperature is greater than a threshold. This allows an effective prevention against microbiological growth downstream of the mixing valve of each consumer.
  • the controller generates automatically a control signal for the mixing valve and a control signal for a withdrawal valve of the respective water consumer in order to flush and disinfect the withdrawal line of the respective water consumer if the controller determines that in case of a closed mixing valve the actual value of at least one mixing water temperature is greater than a threshold. This allows an effective disinfection against microbiological growth downstream of the mixing valve of each consumer.
  • the controller generates automatically a control signal for the mixing valve and a control signal for a withdrawal valve of the respective water consumer in order to flush and disinfect the withdrawal line of the respective water consumer if the controller determines that in case of a closed mixing valve the actual value of the past mixed water consumption volume is smaller than a threshold.
  • the controller initiates the automatic flushing and preferably disinfection only at defined daytimes. If the controller determines regular water consumption at a water consumer, the controller automatically stops or inhibits the automatic flushing and preferably disinfection of the withdrawal line of the respective consumer. This improves the safety of the potable water system.

  • a first temperature sensor 22 measures an actual value of a hot water temperature T3.
  • the first temperature sensor 22 measures the hot water temperature T3 at the first inlet 14 of the mixing valve 13 of the respective water consumer 12.
  • the hot water temperature T3 is therefore preferably a water consumer individual hot water temperature.
  • a second temperature sensor 23 measures an actual value of a cold water temperature T2.

Also the outlet 16 of the respective mixing valve 13 becomes flushed with cold water. For this flushing the second inlet 15 of the respective mixing valve 13 and the withdrawal valve 19 become automatically opened. If the cold water temperature T2 is individually measured for each water consumer 12, the above flushing is water consumer individual.
  • each water consumer 12 connected to the cold water supply line 11 will be flushed.
  • the above flushing is performed for a defined time period or for a defined flow volume through the withdrawal line 17 or until the actual value of the cold water temperature T2 is lower than a second threshold.

  • the flushed hot water flows into the sewage 30 of the respective water consumer 12.
  • This flushing and disinfection cycle with hot water is followed by a cold water flushing cycle to prevent scalding from the hot water stored downstream of mixing valve 13 in withdrawal line 17 up to the withdrawal point 18. It shall also cause sudden temperature variation to help disinfection against microbiological growth.
  • the cold water flushing cycle subsequent to the flushing and disinfection cycle with hot water is performed for a defined time period or for a defined flow volume through the withdrawal line 17 or until the actual value of the or each mixing water temperature T1 and T4 is lower than a threshold.

  • the flushing and disinfection on basis of the past mixed water consumption volume V is performed for a defined time period or for a defined flow volume through the withdrawal line 17 or until the actual value of the hot water temperature T3 and/or of the or each mixing water temperature T1, T4 is higher than a threshold analogous to the above flushing and disinfection on basis of the mixing water temperature T1 and/or T4.
  • the flushing and disinfection cycle with hot water is followed by a cold water flushing cycle.
  • Flushing and disinfection can in also be performed in defined time intervals analogous to the above flushing and disinfection on basis of the mixing water temperature T1 and/or T4. If the controller 29 determines that the actual value of the hot water temperature T3 is lower than a threshold, the controller 29 generates automatically a control signal for the valve 27 in order to flush the hot water supply line 10 through the by-pass line 26.

This increases acceptance and safety of the potable water system. This prevents scalding or thermal shock during regular operation.
  • another proximity sensor 31 monitors if a person is in the vicinity while an automatic flushing cycle or flushing and disinfection cycle is performed. If the controller 29 determines on basis of the signal provided by this proximity sensor 31 that a person is in the vicinity, the controller 29 automatically stops the automatic flushing or the automatic flushing and disinfection of the withdrawal line 17 of the respective consumer 12.
