V10K™ SYSTEM: PROVEN TECHNOLOGY WORLDWIDE IN USE Since Charles F. Wallace and Martin F. Tiernan discovered the first chlorine gas feed system in 1913 the Wallace & Tiernan brand is a synonym for safe and reliable disinfection of water. EXACT DOSING The V10k™ gas feed system DUE TO V-NOTCH is an efficient, low-capacity gas feeder for up to 15 kg/h The V-notch consists of a precision grooved plug that slides through an with a standarized flexible annular seat. Any position of the plug in the seat results in a specific orifice design that provides a variety size and a corresponding feed rate. The large size and configuration of the of configurations. It consists of orifice resists fouling from contaminants in the gas supply. This results in the following components: accurate gas flow control and excellent repeatability. Control of this V-notch can be from simple manual operation up to sophisticated automatic control • Vacuum regulator mounted at schemes. the gas supply • Wall-mounted gas control unit All-vacuum operation ensures highest safety with a rotameter for indica- The complete V10k™ gas system operates under a vacuum.

With the V10k™ system the following control modes
are available: • Manual control • Start/stop or program control through injector water operation (solenoid valve) • Simple ratio control through a 4–20 mA input • Chlorine residual control through SFC system • Flow proportional control through SFC SC flow proportional control • Compound loop control through SFC PC process controller SFC SC flow proportional control The Wallace & Tiernan® SFC SC system is used for flow proportional controlled dosing of chemicals SFC MEASUREMENT AND CONTROL SYSTEM used in water treatment and for similar industrial process applications. It can control automatic V-notch positioners in gas feed systems like the V10k gas dosing system or automatic stroke length positioners and variable speed drives in dosing pump systems. SFC PC Process control The SFC PC system controls processes based on a control variable (e.g. flow signal) and an actual measurement value. The measurement signal may be a direct sensor signal or an external mA signal. By using the “fuzzy-logic”auto-tuning control technology at the compound loop control mode the control performance is improved against traditional controllers. The SFC PC process controller saves its responses related to control deviations and uses this data for future control calculations. So the actuating control output is optimized by fast reaction on flow value and continuously adjusted control parameters through memory data.
