Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und ein System zum Befüllen eines Tanks mit einem flüssigen Medium, insbesondere einer Harnstoff Lösung. Eine Befüllvorrichtung (11) weist ein Befüllrohr (28) und einen Füllstandssensor am Befüllrohr (28) auf, wobei der Füllstandssensor ein Füllsignal abgibt, wenn er das flüssige Medium detektiert. Eine Förderpumpe ist zum Fördern des Mediums vorgesehen. Eine Steuerungsvorrichtung ist dazu ausgelegt, die Förderpumpe abzuschalten, wenn ein Füllsignal empfangen wird, und die Förderpumpe wieder einzuschalten, wenn das Füllsignal nach einer vorgegebenen Zeitdauer nicht mehr empfangen wird.

The invention relates to a method and a system for filling a tank with a liquid medium, in particular a urea solution. A filling device (11) has a filling tube (28) and a filling level sensor on the filling tube (28), wherein the filling level sensor emits a filling signal when it detects the liquid medium. A feed pump is provided for conveying the medium. A control device is configured to turn off the feed pump when a fill signal is received and to turn the feed pump back on when the fill signal is no longer received after a predetermined amount of time.
