[0016] The following provides a preferred embodiment of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention in detail.

[0017] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the present invention, as Figure 1Shown as follows: A variable frequency control system based on full redundancy design proposed by the present invention. The variable frequency control system based on full redundancy design includes: a power distribution unit, a human-machine interaction unit, multiple groups of variable frequency controller units, and multiple groups of instrument and meter units.

[0018] The power distribution unit is connected to the human-machine interaction unit, multiple groups of variable frequency controller units, and multiple groups of instrument and meter units through electrical connection; the power distribution unit is responsible for the on-off switching and electrical protection of the human-machine interaction unit, multiple groups of variable frequency controller units, and multiple groups of instrument and meter units; one of the multiple groups of variable frequency controller units is paired with one of the multiple groups of instrument and meter units, and after pairing, they are connected to the human-machine interaction unit in a parallel connection manner.

[0019] This system is a variable frequency water supply system based on full redundancy design of variable frequency controller power supply, human-machine interaction unit, control power supply unit, outlet pressure transmitter unit, etc. Any unit failure or disconnection will not affect the automatic water supply and monitoring display of the system.

[0020] The human-machine interaction unit includes: a touch screen, an Internet of Things gateway, and a CAN gateway; the CAN gateway is connected to multiple groups of variable frequency controller units, and the Internet of Things gateway is connected to an external intelligent water service platform. Monitor the operating status and data of multiple groups of variable frequency controller units through the CAN gateway, and realize data interconnection and interoperability between the variable frequency water supply system and the intelligent water service platform through the Internet of Things gateway.

[0021] Each group of the multiple groups of variable frequency controller units includes: an inverter board, a PLC board, and a monitor board; the inverter board is responsible for the drive speed regulation and electrical protection of the motor; the PLC board is responsible for the acquisition of control signals and sensor signals, the logical control and data operation of the water supply system, and at the same time supports STEP7-Micro / WIN SMART programming, PPI, profinet, and Modbus communication protocols; the monitor board displays the operating data and status of the inverter and the water supply system, and at the same time sets and modifies the parameters of the inverter and the water supply system.

[0022] Each group of the multiple groups of instrument and meter units includes: 1 water tank level transmitter, 1 inlet pressure transmitter, and 2 outlet pressure transmitters. The outlet pressure transmitters are respectively connected to the standby 1# variable frequency controller and 2# variable frequency controller.

[0023] The following is a specific implementation example:

[0024] Each variable frequency controller in the control system of the present invention is an independent variable frequency water supply control system.

[0025] (1), Engineers can download the PLC control program to each variable frequency controller through the gateway using a PC.

[0026] (2) The control signal and the sensor signal are directly connected to the 1# frequency converter controller and the 2# frequency converter controller;

[0027] (3) By default, the 1# frequency converter controller is the main control system, and the 2# frequency converter controller is the standby control system. When the 1# frequency converter controller loses power or drops the line, the system automatically switches the 2# frequency converter controller as the main control system, and the frequency conversion control system realizes hot standby redundancy, making the system safe and reliable;

[0028] (4) The main control PLC board of the frequency converter controller controls the start and stop and debugging of each frequency converter controller through the CAN bus with the control logic and operation results, realizing variable frequency water supply;

[0029] (5) Two outlet pressure transmitters are respectively connected to the 1# frequency converter controller and the 2# frequency converter controller. Each frequency converter controller can share sensor data through the CAN bus. When one of the pressure transmitters breaks or fails, the system will automatically use the other pressure transmitter as the feedback value to realize variable frequency constant pressure water supply;

[0030] (6) The switching power supply can only supply power to the human-machine interaction unit. Even if the switching power supply fails or the human-machine unit fails, the monitoring board in the frequency converter controller can still monitor and control the variable frequency water supply status and data;

[0031] In summary, the system is a variable frequency water supply system based on the full redundancy design of the frequency converter controller power supply, human-machine interaction unit, control power supply unit, outlet pressure transmitter unit, etc. Any failure or disconnection of any unit will not affect the automatic water supply and monitoring display of the system.
