The following matters should be noted in the use of the oil cooler.

 

1.Check the oil cooler and the system coupling to be tight, and check all accessories and observation instruments.

2.Before using the oil cooler, to exhaust treatment, loosen the front cover (or back cover) and the screw plug on the shell, slowly pass into the water and oil, when the screw plug has water or oil overflow, respectively, and then tighten the screw plug.

3.Pass in the cold medium water first, then add the hot medium oil, otherwise it will produce thermal stress.

4.The water should be added slowly, do not put in a large amount of cooling water, so as not to form a "super-cooled layer" in the tube and reduce the heat transfer effect.

5.Adjust the cooling water intake to maintain the required temperature of the oil.

6.The oil side pressure must be greater than the water side pressure.

The molecular sieve used in oxygen generators is the zeolite molecular sieve. It is a crystalline silica and aluminate polyhydric compound. Molecular sieves have a uniform pore size and their main function is to sieve molecules. There are three main types of molecular sieves: A, X and Y. The 13X molecular sieve is the only adsorbent currently used in liquid air separation plants. Any molecules that can be adsorbed on 3A, 4A and 5A molecular sieves can be adsorbed by 13X molecular sieves. It is c...

Pressure test before valve installation 1. In the warranty period, those with the certification and the sealing surface is intact can no longer conduct the strength test alone, but only the air tightness test can be taken before installation. 2. Within the warranty period, it has the certificate, and its sealing surface has defects such as corrosion and damage. After treatment, it must carry out the air tightness test. 3. Outside the warranty period, those with certification and intact sealing surface shall be subject to air tightness test before installation. 4. For valves that need to be degreased and disassembled on site, air tightness test shall be conducted separately before installation. 5. The safety valve shall be sent to the local quality inspection department of the project for verification before the end of installation and commissioning.
