Abstract (en)
The liquid distribution system has a supply tank holding liquid with a head space under a preset pressure connected to an intermediate storage tank with a headspace at a higher pressure and receiving tanks arranged in parallel and supplying a user network. The volume of the receiving tanks is much smaller than that of the intermediate tank. The receiving tanks are filled and emptied by applying respectively a lower and higher pressure relative to the pressure in the intermediate tank. All the tanks may be pressurized using nitrogen. The intermediate tank volume is 220 l - 5 m<3>. Each receiving tank is a tube of 1-50 l. The supply tanks are at 100 mbar, the intermediate tank at 100-500 mbar and the emptying pressure applied to the receiving tanks is 0.5-6 bar. Liquid is recycled back from the user network to the intermediate tank. The connection between the supply and intermediate tanks includes filters.
Abstract (fr)
Le liquide à distribuer part d'un réservoir (3A, 3B) maintenu sous une première surpression P1, d'où il est transféré à une cuve intermédiaire de stockage (11) maintenue sous une pression intermédiaire prédéterminée P2 > P1. En aval de cette cuve sont montés en parallèle plusieurs récipients de distribution de faible volume (12A, 12B), dont chacun peut être mis soit à une pression de distribution P3 > P2, soit à une pression de remplissage P4 < P2. Application à la distribution de produits chimiques ultra-purs destinés à l'industrie micro-électronique. <IMAGE>
