A method for disinfecting a water system of an aircraft includes letting-in of hot water at an inlet of the water system by a first ground service unit; flushing the hot water from the inlet, through water pipes of the water system, to an outlet of the water system; and letting-out of the hot water at the outlet, by the first ground service unit or a second ground service unit; the hot water being flushed into the inlet and out of the outlet over a predefined disinfection period; and the hot water being provided at the inlet via a continuous-flow heater of the first ground service unit.

A method for disinfecting a water system of an aircraft includes the introduction of damp hot air at an inlet of the water system by a ground service unit; flushing of the damp hot air from the inlet through water pipes of the water system to an outlet of the water system; and extraction of the damp hot air at the outlet; wherein the damp hot air is flushed into the inlet and out of the outlet over a predefined disinfection period, and wherein the damp hot air has a temperature between 60&#xb0; C. and 80&#xb0; C.

An aircraft has: an aircraft fuselage, a cabin region formed in the aircraft fuselage, underfloor region separated from the cabin region by a floor partition, and a fresh-water supply system. The fresh-water supply system has a fresh-water provision unit arranged in the underfloor region. The fresh-water supply system has multiple water extraction units which are each arranged in the cabin region, and a water line network branched off from the fresh-water provision unit and extending to the water extraction units. Each water extraction unit has a shut-off valve, a filter unit and a tapping point, which are coupled in series by means of water lines. Each filter unit has an exchangeable water filter with a first filter material designed for filtering particles out of the water flowing through the water filter and with a second filter material designed for softening the water flowing through the water filter.

A draining device for draining a fluid line is provided. The draining device comprises a mechanically non-locking coupling and a holding device. The mechanically non-locking coupling is configured to establish a fluid conductive connection with the fluid line. The holding device is configured to stationary fix the mechanically non-locking coupling relatively to the fluid line. The draining device allows establishing a fluid conductive connection between the fluid line and the mechanically non-locking coupling without requiring a mechanical fixation directly at the mechanically non-locking coupling.

Draining device for draining a fluid line

Water supply vehicle comprising a water reservoir, a flow through descaling device having a water inlet, a water outlet, a detecting device for detecting a water characteristic in a water flow from the water inlet to the water outlet, a controllable water descaling device, and a controlling device being designed for controlling the water descaling device based on a water characteristic detected by the detection device, wherein the water reservoir is connected to the water inlet, wherein the water outlet is connectable to a water hose for supplying water to a water consumer.

Mobile water cart with water pre-conditioning device

A thermally optimised circulation fluid system is proposed which comprises a circulation line, a circulation pump unit and a control unit. The circulation pump unit and the circulation line together form a circulation circuit. The circulation pump unit is configured for transferring an amount of thermal energy directly or indirectly to a fluid located in the circulation line. The control unit is configured for adjusting the amount of thermal energy which is transferrable to the fluid.

Temperature control of a circulation fluid system by thermally optimised operation of a circulation pump

A water supply modulefor a transportation means comprises a receiving connectionfor receiving water from a supply line, a delivery connectionfor delivering water to a faucet&#x2033;, a control connectionfor receiving control commands of an actuating elementon the faucet&#x2033;, and a control unit. The control unitis designed, on the basis of control commands of the actuating element, to adjust the delivery of water from the delivery connectionto the faucet&#x2033;. The water supply moduleis designed as an assembly.
