The principle of water softening equipment and automatic control scheme

Released Date: Mar 03,2016 Article Source: Yuanlai Water Treatment
The principle of water softening equipment and automatic control scheme: Fully automatic water softening equipment features small size, simple operation, and automatic operation without manual intervention. It has been widely applied in industrial boilers, cooling circulating water, steelmaking, steel rolling, large transformers, and civil hot water boilers, among other fields. The standard working process of fully automatic water softening equipment mainly includes five steps: water softening equipment operation (sometimes called water production, the same below), backwashing, salt absorption (regeneration), slow rinsing (replacement), and fast rinsing. All the processes of different water softening equipment are very similar. However, due to the differences in the actual processes of the water softening equipment or the requirements of control, there may be some additional procedures. Any water softening equipment based on sodium ion exchange is developed on the basis of these five processes (among which, fully automatic softening

  The principle of water softening equipment and automatic control scheme

  The fully automatic water softening equipment features a compact size, simple operation, and automatic operation without the need for manual intervention. It has been widely applied in industrial boilers, cooling circulating water, steelmaking, steel rolling, large transformers, and civil hot water boilers, among other fields.

  The standard working process of the fully automatic water softening equipment mainly includes:

  The water softening equipment is in operation(Sometimes it is called water production, the same below)Backwashing, salt absorption(Regeneration)Slow rinse(Replacement)Five processes of quick rinse. All the processes of different water softening equipment are very similar. However, due to the differences in the actual processes of the water softening equipment or the requirements of control, there may be some additional procedures. Any water softening equipment based on sodium ion exchange is developed on the basis of these five processes(Among them, the fully automatic water softening equipment will add a brine recharging process).

  Ii. Brand Introduction of Automatic Controller for Softening Water Equipment

  Softened water equipment mainly adoptsFLECKPerformance features of (Fulaike) centralized control valve:

  ◆ PENTAIR FLECKThe piston valve core produced not only has outstanding hydraulic performance, but is also strong, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant. The lead-free brass valve body is harmless and has a long service life.

  ◆ The valve core has a clever design. The core component, composed of pistons, sealing rings and partition grids, not only has excellent hydraulic performance, but is also sturdy, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant. The brass valve core is firmly covered

  It is covered with a polytetrafluoroethylene surface layer that has low friction resistance and is wear-resistant. These features make the performance of the control valve reliable and its service life long.

  ◆ The regeneration program can be automatically started according to the flow rate setting. The operator only needs to add salt to the salt tank regularly, and the rest of the work will be automatically completed by the soft water equipment. The equipment has a low failure rate, a long service life and can ensure water quality100%

  In good condition.

  ◆ The periodic water production volume can be adjusted at will, and the time of each regeneration step can be flexibly adjusted.

  Iii. Performance Characteristics of Fully Automatic Soft Water Equipment

  Fully automatic water softeners can be classified into various series such as time-controlled type, flow-controlled type, and continuous soft water supply system type. They come in multiple combination forms, including single-valve single-tank, single-valve double-tank, double-valve double-tank in parallel, and large multi-valve multi-tank in series, to meet users' diverse water usage needs. The flow type is fully automatic regeneration with the set flow control. The flow rate can be set according to the different resin filling volume and water quality conditions. The time type is based on the resin filling volume and water quality conditions, combined with the specific hourly demand to convert the time, and is controlled by the set time for fully automatic regeneration.7Heaven or12The regeneration cycle can be set as needed within a day.24The regeneration time can be chosen at will within hours. The fully automatic soft water equipment control system technology is formed, easy to operate, reliable in operation, and microcomputer-controlled, making its operation more convenient and management easier.

  1.The water softening equipment has a high degree of automation and stable operating conditions.

  2.The program control device of the water softening equipment operates accurately and reliably, replacing manual operation and achieving automatic conversion of all links in water treatment.

  3.The water softening equipment has low energy consumption and economical operating costs. Due to the overall reasonable design of the softener, the exchange capacity of the resin is fully exerted. The equipment adopts jet salt suction instead of salt pumps, reducing energy consumption.

  4.The water softening equipment has a compact structure, occupies a small area, saves infrastructure investment, and is easy to install, debug and use. The performance of the operating components is stable.

EDI ultra-pure water system

EDI ultra-pure water system

Yuan LaiEDIThe ultra-pure water equipment uses electro-deionization technology.EDIElectrodeionization is a water purification method that combines the dual advantages of electrodialysis and ion exchange. It does not require acid-base chemical regeneration and can continuously and stably prepare high-purity ultrapure water. Under the action of a direct current electric field, ion separation in water is completed. At the same time, water is electrolyzed to generate hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions, achieving automatic regeneration of the resin without the need to stop the machine for manual regeneration. The pre-treatment combined with reverse osmosis can prevent oxidized substances from damaging the resin, ensuring stable effluent quality and widely meeting the high-standard water usage requirements of various industries.

Non-negative pressure water supply equipment

Non-negative pressure water supply equipment

The non-negative pressure water supply equipment can be directly connected to the municipal water supply network, making full use of the residual pressure of the original network for superimposed water supply. Fully enclosed operation does not require the construction of a domestic water tank, eliminating secondary pollution. Intelligent variable frequency voltage stabilization, energy-saving, quiet and easy installation, it is the preferred equipment for secondary water supply in high-rise residential buildings and commercial buildings.

Constant pressure water supply equipment

Constant pressure water supply equipment

Constant pressure water supply equipment is widely used in central air conditioning, floor heating, industrial closed-loop water circulation, and boiler systems. It integrates automatic pressure stabilization, automatic water replenishment, automatic exhaust, pressure relief and buffering functions. It stabilizes the pressure in the pipeline network, eliminates abnormal sounds caused by air blockage, and prevents damage from negative pressure and water shortage in the pipeline. It is an essential supporting equipment for HVAC and circulating water systems.
