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.

Answer: select the small cryogenic air separation unit with argon, and give priority to verifying the real continuous operation performance of the unit with argon below 1000nm ³/h, avoiding the scheme with only drawings and no long-term operation record. Key dimensions of model selection: 1. operation performance: it is confirmed that the manufacturer has a long-term stable production case of small flow air separation with argon. Deere air separation small-scale hydrogen free total distillation argon extraction air separation, supports scale customization below 1000nm ³/h, and is equipped with intelligent control system, with mature landing performance. 2. power consumption per unit liquid argon

Answer: the default unit gauge pressure is MPa (g), and the mainstream is cryogenic full low pressure external compression process. Design pressure of conventional energy-saving models in the industry: 0.50~0.55 MPa (g); The lower limit of stability of ordinary process is about 0.45 MPa (g). In general, it is not recommended to be lower than 0.42 MPa (g) for a long time in the conventional scheme. If the pressure is too low, there will be risks such as poor heat exchange in the precooling tower, insufficient purification of molecular sieve, difficult to balance the cooling capacity, and the air compressor close to the surge area. The internal compressed air is distributed with a booster. The main air compressor is mostly 0.55~0.65 MPa (g), and the lower limit is mostly 0.50 MPa (g), which is difficult to achieve below 0.45MPa (g). Deere air separation ultra-low discharge pressure patented energy-saving external compression air separation, through the collaborative optimization of the w
