en.Wedoany.com Reported - As of May 22, the intelligent water pump control system based on visual recognition of water levels, independently built by the Intelligent Operation and Maintenance Team of Shendong Shigetai Coal Mine in Shaanxi, China, has been in operation for one and a half months. The system integrates machine vision technology with industrial control technology, achieving full-process automation of water level recognition, intelligent decision-making, and remote control. The visual intelligent water control system at Shendong Shigetai Coal Mine requires no additional procurement of specialized software and is deployed using existing surveillance cameras.
For a long time, the mine's sump pump control relied on a traditional water float start-stop mechanism combined with manual video inspection. This approach had several management shortcomings, including delayed start-stop due to float sticking, significant manpower consumption from manual inspections with reduced efficiency during night shifts and extreme weather, and the inability to achieve multi-pump linkage. To implement the group's requirements for the "Year of Management Enhancement," the Intelligent Operation and Maintenance Team established a task force and proposed a solution based on visual recognition and intelligent control.
The visual intelligent water control system replaces traditional manual video inspection. Once deployed, it can be applied synchronously across multiple terminals, eliminating the need for scheduled manual inspections and saving over 1,200 hours of manual inspection work annually. The system monitors water levels uninterruptedly 24/7, with a recognition accuracy rate exceeding 99%. The response time for pump start-stop is shortened by 80% compared to the traditional model, preventing water level exceedance and pump idling. The downtime due to sump drainage system failures has decreased by 90% compared to previous years. The system can also automatically adjust the number of operating pumps based on water level changes, enhancing the emergency response capability of the drainage system.
Shendong Shigetai Coal Mine plans to further deepen the integration of intelligent technology and safety production, optimize the visual intelligent water control system's algorithms, and expand its application scenarios. The successful operation of the mine's visual intelligent water control system provides technical support for flood season safety protection. Moving forward, technological innovation will empower management improvement, safety efficiency enhancement, and cost control.
