FIELD: electricity.
SUBSTANCE: method includes utilisation of electrolyte level sensor that controls and adjusts the level of electrolyte in a device and replenishes electrolyte losses in a process bath with diluted water electrolyte formed in its condensation tank after jet washing operation in a first bath after the processing bath. The processing bath electrolyte is poured into one of two buffer tanks standing thereunder or under baths for washing in this operation made with the possibility of electrolyte cooling and connected by means of a pipeline with the overflow pocket of the processing bath and equipped with pumps for electrolyte supply to the processing bath. The outlets of the buffer tanks are connected to the pumps for electrolyte supply to the process bath through shutoff valves or three-way ball cock, and control of electrolyte supply by means of activation of appropriate pump is carried out by signal of the process bath level sensor before operation of jet washing in the first bath after the processing bath.
EFFECT: increase in efficiency, reliability and stability of the processes for maintaining electrolyte level in baths electroplating lines for applying coatings, implemented in zero discharge mode.
