No pressure in the cylinder before starting the air compressor of small air separation unit

No pressure in the cylinder before starting the air compressor of small air separation unit
Jul 02, 2025
Author: DEAR AST

According to the starting characteristics of the motor towing the air compressor, when the air compressor is started, its starting current is several times the current in operation. Too much starting current can have a negative impact on the machine itself, the transformer and the transmission line, so we should try to shorten the starting time and the starting current. However, if pressure exists in the cylinder before the air compressor starts, the starting torque will become larger and the starting current of the motor will be larger than no-load starting, so that it is easy to damage the air compressor or cause accidents on the power grid.

 

Dear Air Separation employs dozens of experts and technicians in machine and vessel equipment manufacturing and inspection to ensure the reliability of equipment manufacturing. We are currently setting up a joint research and exchange mechanism with domestic universities in the areas of intelligent manufacturing, intelligent operation and maintenance, engineering structural science, nano-sensing field and materials science, truly becoming a technology development institution combining academics and production in the small air separation unit and large air separation plant industry.

Conventional liquid air separation plants are cooled by isothermal throttling refrigeration and expander refrigeration, LNG cold energy air separation eliminates the need for an expander and utilises the cooling capacity of LNG and isothermal throttling refrigeration. The air separation unit uses circulating nitrogen gas to liquefy into liquid nitrogen in a liquefier, which is fed into the lower tower, where the cold is transferred to the distillation system to pump the dirty liquid nitrogen thr...

Cryogenic air separation nitrogen production uses air as raw material, which is compressed, purified and heat exchanged to liquefy gas air into liquid air. Liquid air is mainly a mixture of liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen. Liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen have different boiling points and are separated by distillation to obtain nitrogen. 1. Air compression and purification The air passes through the air strainer to remove dust and mechanical impurities, then enters the air compressor, compresses to the required pressure, and then goes to the air cooler to reduce the air temperature. It then enters the air drying purifier to remove moisture, carbon dioxide, acetylene and other hydrocarbons from the air. 2. Air separation The purified air enters the main heat exchanger in the air separation column, and is cooled to the saturation temperature by the reflux gas (production nitrogen gas, waste gas), and is sent to the bottom of the distillation column. The nitrogen is obtained fr
