Description

Durability test device and method for water meter
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of durability tests, and particularly relates to a durability test device and method for a water meter.
Background
The durability test device of the existing water meter is 3-meter position, the device is composed of a circulating water tank, a vertical water pump, a pipeline, an electric control valve, an instantaneous flow meter, a PLC (programmable logic controller), a control circuit, a temperature and pressure measuring element, a touch display screen, a printer and the like, and has the test functions of continuous flow and discontinuous flow. The volume of the circulating water tank is 0.5m3A direct current motor control ball valve is used as an execution element of the discontinuous flow test, and a control system adopts a PLC + touch screen form, so that the parameters of the test process can be monitored conveniently. The device has a self-protection function, and can automatically cut off the water pump when test parameters deviate or a pipeline breaks down.
The device can carry out continuous flow test and discontinuous flow test. During the continuous flow test, after the table utensil presss from both sides the dress, set for flow and operating time at the user, the water pump is from circulating water tank with clean water pump pumping into pipeline, circulates according to following route: circulating water tank-water gauge-stop valve-flowmeter for indication-circulating water tank. During continuous test, the valve between the water meter and the flowmeter is fully opened, the test flow is the overload flow of the water meter, and the time duration is 100 hours. In the intermittent flow test, the flow is set by the same method, the valve between the water meter and the flow meter is opened and closed at intervals of 15s, 10 ten thousand tests are required, and the test flow is the common flow of the water meter.
However, the prior art devices have the following drawbacks:
1. no liquid level monitoring facility and automatic water changing system. The circulating water tank has limited empty volume, clean water circulates for a long time in the test process, the water temperature rises continuously, and when the room temperature is 25 ℃, the water temperature exceeds the test allowable temperature after the continuous flow test runs for 6 hours. At the moment, low-temperature tap water needs to be supplemented from the outside for replacement, so that the water body in the circulating water tank is cooled and the uninterrupted work is kept. Because the equipment does not have a liquid level monitoring facility and an automatic water changing system, the water temperature can only be checked manually at regular time, when the water temperature reaches a specific value, a water replenishing valve is manually opened, but water is wasted due to overlarge flow, and if the inflow water flow exceeds the overflow capacity of an overflow hole at the upper part of the circulating water tank, water overflow occurs, so that an accident is caused; and if the flow is too small, the water body cannot be effectively cooled, and the test progress and data are influenced.
2. The hardware loss is large. The stop valve between the water meter and the flowmeter is an electric control pneumatic ball valve. During the intermittent flow test, the valve needs to be opened and closed continuously for 10 ten thousand times, the service life of a common valve is about 3 ten thousand times, and the quality of the common valve can reach 5-6 ten thousand times. Therefore, a group of water meters is tested, at least 2 stop valves need to be replaced, hardware loss is large, and cost is high. On the other hand, during rivers cut off, the water pump does not stop work, and the water pump can suppress the pressure this moment, and in the test process, the water pump can intermittently suppress the pressure and reach 10 ten thousand times, so for a long time, the water pump performance can receive certain influence for the plant maintenance frequency increases, and the expense rises.
3. And can not be operated unattended. The running time of the durability test of the water meter is long, and the total of the intermittent flow quantity test and the continuous flow quantity test is about 1000 hours. The operation was continued for 24 hours a day, and it took 42 consecutive days to complete the whole experiment. However, the device has no monitoring functions of water temperature, liquid level and the like, cannot issue early warning information, and cannot be remotely controlled. On the premise that safety cannot be comprehensively and effectively guaranteed, the device can only be checked by testers at regular time, and normal operation of the device is guaranteed.
