METHOD FOR SAFE FLUSHING OF PIPES OF WATER SUPPLY NETWORK AND MOBILE DEVICE FOR SAFE FLUSHING OF PIPES OF WATER SUPPLY NETWORK
A method and mobile device for the safe flushing of a selected section of pipes of the water supply network allows machine flushing that saves water and time, and that protects the water supply network from an accident that would affect the distribution of drinking water. The invention continuously compares the projected flow rate of the flushed water with the actual condition, and executes automatic countermeasures if an undesirable trend of change in condition is detected. The mobile device thereby comprises an inlet flange (1) with a transition (2) for connecting a water supply leading from a hydrant of the water supply network, further comprising a stilling pipe (3) connected at one end to the inlet flange (I), that i further comprises at least one electric meter for measuring a physical or quality parameter of water connected to the stilling pipe (3), further comprising a safety valve (4) arranged at the other end of the stilling pipe (3), further comprising an electric flow meter (5) arranged downstream of the safety valve (4) in the direction of water flow, further comprising an electrically actuated gate valve (6) arranged downstream of the electric flow meter (5) in the direction of water flow, further comprising an outlet flange (7) with a transition (2) arranged to the electrically actuated gate valve (6) for connecting the water outlet of the mobile device, further comprising at least one control means for controlling the operation of the mobile device, further comprising an electronic control unit (8), which is wired or wirelessly connected to at least one physical or water quality parameter gauge, further to an electric flow meter (5), further to an electrically operated gate valve (6), further to a control means, wherein the components of the mobile device are housed in a covered cart for their safety concealment and for transportability of the mobile device.
