This is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, so it cannot be understood as a limitation to the present utility model. In addition, in the description of the present utility model, if terms such as "first", "second", etc. are used only for distinguishing descriptions, they cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0020] In the description of the embodiments of the present utility model, it should also be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, if terms such as "set" and "connected" are used, they should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific situations.

[0021] As shown in the drawings, the present utility model includes

[0022] A storage tank 1, on the top of which there is a radar level gauge 5, on the side wall of which there is a field level gauge 6, and at the bottom of the storage tank 1 there is a drain port 7;

[0023] An industrial water inlet pipe 2, in parallel with which there are an electric or pneumatic on-off valve 3 and a manual stop valve a4 for manually supplementing the liquid level of the storage tank. The end of the industrial water inlet pipe 2 is connected to the top water inlet of the storage tank 1;

[0024] A cooling water return pipe 8, which is connected to the cooling water recovery port at the top of the storage tank 1;

[0025] A cooling water outlet pipe 9, which is connected to the bottom of the storage tank 1. In parallel with the cooling water outlet pipe 9, there are a pressurizing pump A10 and a pressurizing pump B11. On the inlet and outlet pipelines of the pressurizing pump A10 and the pressurizing pump B11, there are an inlet valve A12, an outlet valve A13, an inlet valve B14, and an outlet valve B15 respectively, for throttling control of the medium to facilitate switching of the pressurizing pump or maintenance;

[0026] A cooling water pressurized transmission pipe 20, which is connected to the end of the cooling water outlet pipe 9. On the cooling water pressurized transmission pipe 20, there are a field pressure gauge 18 and a pressure transmitter 19 in sequence. The field pressure gauge 18 detects the medium pressure in the on-site pipeline for easy inspection and monitoring.

[0027] In another technical solution, a connecting pipe 22 is provided between the inlet pipeline end of the pressure pump A10 and the outlet pipeline end of the pressure pump B11. A series connection valve 23 is provided on the connecting pipe 22. When this valve is closed, the two pressure pumps are used in parallel. If the pressure required by the device is high, the series valve can be manually opened, valve A12 and valve B15 can be closed, and the two pumps, namely pressure pump B11 and pressure pump A10, are used for pressurization in sequence to reach twice the pressure, so as to meet the cooling water pressure of the device.

[0028] In another technical solution, the electric or pneumatic on-off valve 3 is controlled to open or close by being interlocked with the upper and lower limit values set by the radar level gauge 5. The radar level gauge is integrated with a programmable logic controller (PLC) or other types of control systems. When the liquid level reaches the preset upper and lower limits, the PLC or other control systems will issue instructions according to these signals to control the opening or closing of the electric or pneumatic on-off valve.

[0029] In another technical solution, when the pressure transmitter 19 is in normal operation with the pressure pump B11 (set as the main pump), when the pressure reaches the lower limit value, the pressure pump A10 (set as the auxiliary pump) is automatically started for interlocked operation. During the inspection tour, when the pressure pump B11 and the pressure pump A10 are running simultaneously, its failure is the failure of the main pump, and it is necessary to manually switch to stop the main pump for inspection, repair, and maintenance. After restoring the function of the main pump, switch the main pump to run, and the interlock continues to be put into operation. The pressure transmitter can not only monitor and control the pressure, but also control the start and stop of the pump by controlling the output signal. Install a pressure switch on the output port of the pressure transmitter and connect it to the circuit controlling the pump. When the operating pressure of the pump reaches the specified value, the pressure switch will be triggered and transmit the signal to the switch circuit of the pump, thereby stopping the operation of the pump. When the pressure drops to a certain extent, the signal of the pressure switch will be transmitted back to the control circuit again to start the pump. In this way, the pressure transmitter can achieve the automatic start and stop control of the pump.

[0030] In another technical solution, a manual stop valve b21 is also provided at the connection between the cooling water outlet pipe 9 and the bottom of the storage tank 1, which is kept in the normally open state, and it can be manually closed according to requirements.

[0031] In another technical solution, check valves A16 and check valves B17 are respectively provided on the pipelines behind the outlet valve A13 and the outlet valve B15 to prevent the backflow of the medium.

[0032] Working mode: It is applicable to the recycling of the cooling water return of the production device equipment, saving resources, reducing waste, and reducing the environmental protection and equipment safety operation risks;

[0033] The upper and lower limits of the liquid level detected by the tank radar level gauge are interlocked with the inlet water switch valve to close or open, ensuring that the liquid level in the tank is within the effective range. Two parallel booster pumps are set as the main and auxiliary pumps. It is necessary to open all the inlet and outlet valves of the two pumps, close the series connection valve, and restore the check valve function. The upper and lower limits of the pressure transmitter on the pipeline after pressurization are interlocked with the auxiliary pump; if the pressure of a single booster pump cannot meet the required pressure of the device, the outlet valve of the main pump can be manually operated to close, the inlet valve of the auxiliary pump can be closed, and the series connection valve can be opened. The two pumps operate in series, and the pressure will increase exponentially to meet the pressure requirement of the production device.

[0034] The above embodiments are only for explaining the technical solutions and features of the present invention, and the purpose is to better enable those familiar with the technology to implement it, and it cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit and essence of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention. Those not described in detail are prior arts.
