Abstract

A liquid container aeration system for replenishing gases dissolved in a selected liquid present in an interior of said liquid container that checks on an electrical power source capability to continue operation and allows selected liquid substitution in the interior of the container.

Claims

12-1. The system of claim 1 wherein said second fluid flow control devices is an electrically energized drain liquid pump having a pump inlet connected to an input conduit selectively positionable adjacent said interior and having a pump outlet connected to an output conduit selectively positionable adjacent a selected one of said drain reservoir and said interior, said drain liquid pump being switchable by pump control signals at a drain pump controller therein serving as said fluid flow control device controller between being maintained in a pumping state in which it is capable of pumping a liquid at its input through its output, if electrical power is supplied from an electrical power source to a pump electrode therein, and a quiescent state in which it is incapable of pumping a liquid at its input through its output.

13-2. The system of claim 1 wherein said second fluid flow control device is an electrically energized solenoid valve connecting said injection liquid pump outlet to said fluid pressure generating system output and to an output conduit selectively positionable adjacent a selected one of said drain reservoir and said interior.

14-3. The system of claim 13 wherein there is a third fluid flow control device that is an electrically energized solenoid valve connecting said injection liquid pump inlet to said fluid pressure generating system input, said third fluid flow control device being switchable by pressure generating system control signals at a fluid flow control device controller therein between being maintained in a fluid passing state in which it is capable of passing a liquid at its input through its output, if electrical power is supplied from an electrical power source to a flow electrode therein, and a quiescent state in which it is incapable of passing a liquid at its input through its output.
