  • Patent number: 5695092
    Abstract: In a treatment system for feeding a liquid from a tank having an outlet by a controllable pump operated cyclically, an automatic calibration/measuring system. The system is arranged for determining the volume of liquid pumped each cycle of the pump, a fluid flow measuring device and a controller coupled thereto. The fluid flow measuring device is in fluid communication with the tank. The fluid flow measuring device has a totalizer counter and batch measurement capability. The batch value in units of fluid volume or mass measurement is configured into the fluid flow measuring device. At the start of the batch, the fluid flow measuring device sends a ready signal to the controller that it is waiting to start the batch. The controller sends a start signal to the fluid flow measuring device that will initialize (zero reset) the totalizer counter and also tells the fluid flow measuring device that the batch has started and the totalizer to start the count of flow measurement.

  • Patent number: 5525241
    Abstract: A water treatment system including a tank for containing a solid treatment product such as a solid halogen. The water treatment system is adapted to be used in combination with a cooling system wherein treated water is fed to the cooling system through an outlet conduit leading from the tank. Drainage of water from the tank is facilitated by use of an eductor connected to an inlet conduit for the tank whereby water is drained from the tank to the inlet conduit and back to the outlet conduit, and is thereafter conveyed back to the cooling system. Thus, a closed system is formed by the treatment system in combination with an associated cooling system wherein the closed system is substantially environmentally safe in that drainage of the tank outside of the closed system is avoided.
