For the old and new pressure gauge, its precision should be verified. Special pressure gauge calibrator should be used during verification. Generally, there are three common methods.

1. Liquid column type pressure gauge calibrator

On the connection pipe of the calibrator, one side is connected to the checked pressure gauge, and the other side is connected to the glass tube container with mercury inside, and the glass tube is marked with scale as the pressure indication value. When the calibrator is pressurized, the mercury in the container rises from the glass tube, and the precision is corrected by comparing the reading of the pressure gauge through the rising scale value.

2. Weight type pressure gauge calibrator

On the connection pipe of the calibrator, one side is connected to the checked pressure gauge, and the other side is connected to the piston with an area of 1cm2. There are many weights on the piston rod. When the supercharger presses the oil, the piston will be lifted up, and the weight of it will be compared with the dial reading of the pressure gauge, thus the accuracy of the pressure gauge can be known.

3. Standard pressure gauge type calibrator

On the connection pipe of the calibrator, one side is connected with the checked pressure gauge, and the other side is connected with 1 ~ higher level than the checked pressure gauge ~ Level 2 standard pressure gauge. When the calibrator is under pressure, compare the reading error of the two meters to get the accuracy of the pressure gauge to be calibrated.

The non-power consuming option for liquid air separation plants can be used for full liquid air separation plants,where the produced liquid is sold off. This approach is currently available for most LNG receiving stations. For air separation units with a large cold capacity, the liquid air can be pressurised to 6baA in a vacuum storage tank, and then heat exchanged through a heat exchanger, instead of the air compressor, directly into the cold box for distillation. At the same time in the cold b...

1. Before connecting the pipe orifice of each container, clean white cloth shall be used to tie the orifice to prevent grease and dirt from entering. 2. When welding in the cold box and in the condensing evaporator, it is strictly forbidden for flame or arc to touch the surface of vessels and pipes. 3. The containers, valves, pipes and corresponding supports in the cold box, the surface of the cold box and the foundation surface shall not be stained with grease after installation, otherwise, degreasing treatment shall be carried out.
