- the sterilization operation is an operation for sterilizing the circulation path 50 at a high temperature by circulating hot drinking water in the hot water tank 5 through the circulation path 50 including the buffer tank 6 and the pump installation pipe 10. This sterilization operation is started when the user operates a button (not shown) arranged on the front surface of the housing 1. The sterilization operation after the next time is automatically performed every day when the elapsed time from the time when the first sterilization operation is performed is counted by a timer built in the water server.
- the heater 40 of the hot water tank 5 heats the drinking water passing through the hot water tank 5, so that the circulation path 50 (here, the hot water tank 5, the circulation pipe 13, the lower three-way valve 11, the pump installation pipe 10, The temperature of the drinking water circulating through the upper three-way valve 9, the buffer tank water supply pipe 8, the buffer tank 6, and the hot water tank water supply pipe 39) is raised to the sterilization temperature (for example, 80 ° C.) as a whole.
- the sterilization temperature for example, 80 ° C.
- hot drinking water does not pass through the cold water tank 2. Therefore, it is possible to ensure the safety and convenience of the user. That is, if hot drinking water passes through the cold water tank 2 during the sterilization operation, when the cold water cock 25 is operated during the sterilization operation, the hot drinking water is poured out from the cold water cock 25, and the user is burned. There is danger. On the other hand, in this water server, since the circulation path 50 during the sterilization operation does not pass through the cold water tank 2, the user can pour out the low-temperature drinking water in the cold water tank 2 even during the sterilization operation. There is no fear.
- the first water level sensor 3, the second water level sensor 7, the upper three-way valve 9, the lower three-way valve 11 and the like may cause malfunction.
- the float 31 of the first water level sensor 3 or the second water level sensor 7 is caused by the precipitation of mineral components contained in the drinking water. It is assumed that the float 37 is difficult to move or that the upper three-way valve 9 or the lower three-way valve 11 is difficult to switch.
- the abnormality if the abnormality cannot be detected, a situation in which the water level in the cold water tank 2 or the buffer tank 6 continues to rise may occur, and water may leak from the water server. There is.
- the abnormal water level sensor 34 detects the abnormality, and the pump 21 And a lamp (not shown) arranged on the front surface of the housing 1 is lit to notify the user of the abnormality. This will be described below.
- a malfunction occurs in the first water level sensor 3 and the float 31 of the first water level sensor 3 does not rise even though the pump 21 is operating in response to a decrease in the water level in the cold water tank 2.
- the pump 21 does not stop even if the water level in the cold water tank 2 exceeds the set water level, and the water level in the cold water tank 2 rises.
- the abnormal water level sensor 34 detects this.
- the pump 21 is stopped and the lamp is turned on to notify the user of the abnormality. In this way, it is possible to prevent water leakage due to malfunction of the first water level sensor 3.
- the malfunction of the second water level sensor 7 occurs, and the float 21 of the second water level sensor 7 rises even though the pump 21 is operating in response to a decrease in the water level in the buffer tank 6. Assume the case of not. At this time, since the second water level sensor 7 does not detect a rise in the water level in the buffer tank 6, the pump 21 does not stop even if the water level in the buffer tank 6 exceeds the set water level, and the water level in the buffer tank 6 rises. Continue. Thereafter, when the water level in the buffer tank 6 reaches the upper surface 6a of the buffer tank 6, the drinking water overflowing from the buffer tank 6 flows into the cold water tank 2 through the vent pipe 36, and the water level in the cold water tank 2 starts to rise. .
- the abnormal water level sensor 34 detects this. At this time, the pump 21 is stopped and the lamp is turned on to notify the user of the abnormality. In this way, it is possible to prevent water leakage due to malfunction of the second water level sensor 7.
- the upper three-way valve 9 malfunctions and the upper three-way valve 9 is not switched from the cold water side connection position to the buffer side connection position when the sterilization operation is started.
- the drinking water flowing out from the buffer tank 6 should return to the buffer tank 6, but the drinking water flowing out from the buffer tank 6 flows into the cold water tank 2 without returning to the buffer tank 6.
- the water level in 6 continues to fall and the water level in the cold water tank 2 continues to rise.
- the abnormal water level sensor 34 detects this.
- the pump 21 is stopped and the lamp is turned on to notify the user of the abnormality. In this way, it is possible to prevent water leakage due to malfunction of the upper three-way valve 9.
