[0035] In order to make the technical personnel in the art of the present utility model better understand the technical scheme of the present utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and the best embodiment. Based on the embodiment in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by the ordinary technical personnel in the art without making creative labor belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0036] The utility model provides a kind of condensate water recovery device based on redundancy technique, which includes storage tank, first drainage pump, second drainage pump and control system.
[0037] Storage tank is used to store condensate water.The liquid inlet of first drainage pump is connected to storage tank, and the liquid inlet of second drainage pump is also connected to storage tank. When one of first drainage pump and second drainage pump is started, the condensate water in storage tank can be discharged. The present device can turn on first drainage pump and second drainage pump alternately.
[0038] Control system is used to control the on-off state of first drainage pump and the on-off state of second drainage pump. Control system includes power supply, first control module, second control module, liquid level detection piece and control unit. Power supply is used to supply power to first drainage pump and second drainage pump.
[0039] Liquid level detection piece can detect the liquid level of storage tank. Power supply, liquid level detection piece, first drainage pump and second drainage pump are all electrically connected to control unit. Control unit can control the on-off state of first drainage pump and the on-off state of second drainage pump according to the liquid level of storage tank. Specifically, when liquid level detection piece detects that the liquid level of storage tank reaches preset liquid level for the first time, control unit starts first drainage pump to discharge the water in storage tank, and then closes first drainage pump; when liquid level detection piece detects that the liquid level of storage tank reaches preset liquid level for the second time, control unit starts second drainage pump to discharge the water in storage tank, and then closes second drainage pump. This setting mode can make condensate water recovery device run automatically.
[0040] First control module includes circuit breaker QF1, QF5 and QF6, contactor KM101 and KM102, thermal relay KH101 and KH102. Power supply, circuit breaker QF1, contactor KM101, thermal relay KH101, circuit breaker QF5 and first drainage pump are connected in series. Power supply, circuit breaker QF1, contactor KM102, thermal relay KH102, circuit breaker QF6 and second drainage pump are connected in series. When circuit breaker QF1, QF5 and QF6 are closed, first control module is in standby state. Then, closing contactor KM101 can make power supply connect first drainage pump to start first drainage pump. Closing contactor KM102 can make power supply connect second drainage pump to start second drainage pump. First control module is suitable for manually controlling first drainage pump and second drainage pump. Further, first control module can be set as explosion-proof distribution box.
[0041] The second control module comprises circuit breakers QF, QF1', QF2', QF3 and QF4, contactors KM103 and KM104, and thermal relays KH103 and KH104. The power supply, the circuit breaker QF, the circuit breaker QF1', the contactor KM103, the thermal relay KH103, the circuit breaker QF3 and the first drainage pump are connected in series. The power supply, the circuit breaker QF, the circuit breaker QF2', the contactor KM104, the thermal relay KH104, the circuit breaker QF5 and the second drainage pump are connected in series. When the circuit breakers QF, QF1', QF2', QF3 and QF4 are closed, the second control module is in a standby state. Then, the contactor KM103 is closed to connect the power supply to the first drainage pump to start the first drainage pump. The contactor KM104 is closed to connect the power supply to the second drainage pump to start the second drainage pump. The second control module is also applicable to manually control the first drainage pump and the second drainage pump. Further, the second control module can be provided as an explosion-proof distribution box.
[0042] Further, one of the circuit breakers QF3 and QF5 is closed and the other is opened. One of the circuit breakers QF4 and QF6 is closed and the other is opened. In other words, the circuit breakers QF3 and QF5 are mechanically interlocked, and the circuit breakers QF4 and QF6 are mechanically interlocked. Specifically, when the circuit breakers QF5 and QF6 are both closed, the circuit breakers QF3 and QF4 are both opened. In other words, when the first control module is in a standby state, the second control module is in a shutdown state. At this time, the two drainage pumps can only be controlled by the first control module. Conversely, when the circuit breakers QF5 and QF6 are both opened, the circuit breakers QF3 and QF4 are both closed. In other words, when the first control module is in a shutdown state, the second control module is in a standby state. At this time, the two drainage pumps can only be controlled by the second control module. This arrangement allows manual control by the second control module when the first control module needs to be shut down for maintenance, forming a redundant control.
[0043] The above only describes preferred embodiments of the present application, and it should be noted that for those skilled in the art, without departing from the principles of the present application, a number of improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
