Control apparatus for purifying acumulated condensate
Abstract
Abstract Control apparatus for the purification of collected condensate, including condensers, at least two collecting chambers having open tops and at least two collecting chambers having covered tops for the condensers, a feed line having connections to the covered collecting chambers and connections for receiving run-off from the open collecting chambers, a first set of shut-off valves disposed in the feed line connections to the open collecting chambers, a main condensate pump disposed in the feed line, a purification line having connections for receiving run-off from the open collecting chambers and leading to at least one covered collecting chamber, a second set of shut-off valves disposed in the purification line connections to the open collecting chambers, a purification pump disposed in the purification line, a filter arrangement disposed in the purification line, a device for measuring conductivity of condensate in at least one of the open collecting chambers and for maintaining one of the first and second sets of shut-off valves in an open position while the other of the sets is in a closed position depending on the measured conductivity, a device for measuring condensate level in the open collecting chambers, and a maximum selection device connected to the condensate level measuring means for adjusting flow rate through the purification line depending on condensate level in the open collection chambers.
