Abstract:
a filtering method, with which a fluid to be filtered is led through a filter (4), the filter (4) is back-flushed at regular time intervals and a pre-treatment agent is added to the fluid at the entry side of the filter. A process variable which describes the efficiency of the filtration is continuously computed during the filtration, and a metering quantity of the pre-treatment agent is reset on the basis of the values for the process variable or a characteristic values derived from this.
Abstract:
A pump monitoring system associates a current operating state of a pump system including n≥1 pumps with one or more of k≥1 fault scenarios. The pump monitoring system includes an interface module for receiving at least one set of m≥2 operational values from the pump system. The m operational values define a current operational point in an m-dimensional operating space. A processing module processes operational values received by the interface module and consults given or determined model parameters describing a non-faulty model pump characteristic in the m-dimensional operating space and determines a k-dimensional decision vector with k decision vector components indicative of a deviation between an actual differential volume in the m-dimensional operating space based on distances between the m operational values and the non-faulty model pump characteristic, and a modeled differential volume in the m-dimensional operating space for the respective fault scenario.

A cleaning-in-place method includes terminating a cleaning-in-place cycle if a deviation of a currently detected value of a backwash hydraulic parameter (P) from a value of the same backwash hydraulic parameter (P) detected in a previous backwash cycle (32, 34, 36 38) in the same cleaning-in-place cycle exceeds a predefined deviation limit value. A filter device is provided having a control device for carrying out a respective cleaning-in-place method.

Abstract:
A centrifugal pump includes at least one pump stage (14). This pump stage (14) includes an impeller (18) which is mounted rotationally fixed on a pump shaft (26). Apart from the pump stage (14), the centrifugal pump is equipped with a turbine wheel (32) which is arranged on the pump shaft (26), without a movement coupling to the pump shaft, in the delivery flow of the centrifugal pump. This turbine wheel (32) forms a transducer of a flow measuring device. A blading of the turbine wheel (32) is such that a torque exerted by the delivery flow onto the turbine wheel (32′) is directed counter to a torque exerted via the pump shaft (26) onto the impeller (18).
