Abstract

PURPOSE:To detect immediately the abnormality based on insulation and short- circuit, by detecting the conduction state of plural electrode bars different in height of lower ends from one another at intervals of a prescribed short time and detecting the abnormal state on the basis of the state of combinations of conduction signals. CONSTITUTION:Four electrode bars 2, 3, 4, and 5 are provided as detecting ends for the purpose of detecting the water level of a water surface 1 of boiler water or the like, and lengths of lower ends of respective electrode bars are different from one another. Each electrode bar is connected to a signal circuit which issues a signal when its lower end is brought into contact with a liquid but does not issue the signal when it is not brought into contact with the liquid. During the operation of a boiler, signals from electrode bars 2, 3, 4, and 5 are checked at intervals of a prescribed short time, and the abnormality is detected on the basis of the mode of the change of combinations of signals when the state of combinations of signals or the measurement time point is changed.

The method of using an electrode rod to detect the water level is often used; however, in the case of canned water from a boiler, for example, the concentration of impurities is high and the electrode rod is insulated with scale adhering to it, causing the water level to rise. If the system is used without knowing that the system cannot detect 6 seconds or malfunctions due to a short circuit, it may not be possible to detect an abnormal rise or fall in the water level, which may lead to an accident.

During operation of the boiler, the signals from the electrode rods 4.1 are checked at predetermined short time intervals (for example, about 7 milliseconds) at measurement points, and the state of the signal combination or measurement point is checked. Anomalies are detected by the mode in which the combination of signals changes when the signal changes.

In addition, since rapid water level fluctuations cannot occur in an extremely short period of time, such as 1 millisecond, the combination of signals for detection at the first time point changes to the combination of signals for detection at the first time point. If the signals of two or more electrode rods change from 0 to 1 or from 1 to O at the same time, it is estimated that at least one of the electrode rod lines is faulty.

Furthermore, for example, you can stop the combustion while the water pump is running, gradually increase the water level, and make sure that signal 1 is emitted sequentially from the lowest level, or conversely, stop the water pump while the combustion continues. Gradually reduce the water level and check that the signal becomes 0 starting from the highest level and confirm that it is normal.
If this is not the case (1), it is assumed that there is a failure. It was. The water level of Tonoyo is gradually increased or decreased, and even after a predetermined period of time, the highest one still does not emit signal 1 or &1.
If the lowest signal does not become 0, it is assumed that there is a failure.
