What faults are likely to occur with the Hampson liquid level meter

Problems with the liquid level gauge can occur in three ways: high, low or unstable indications.
First of all, check whether the liquid level meter is leaking, pass an air source into the positive pressure chamber and block the negative pressure chamber to see if there is any air leakage. The high indication is generally due to a leak in the negative pressure chamber, which increases the differential pressure; the low indication is due to a leak in the positive pressure chamber, which decreases the differential pressure, or is caused by a blockage in the pipeline, which prevents the pressure from being transferred to the positive pressure chamber. The reason for the unstable liquid level may be the leakage of air from the pipeline, or the packing at the two ends of the glass tube seal is not tight.
In addition, when the positive and negative pressure difference is particularly large, the pressure difference exceeds the rated value of the liquid level meter, the working liquid in the cylinder is forced upward into the negative pressure chamber, at this time the working liquid and gas mixture is easy to blow into the glass tube, resulting in the glass tube inclusions of air bubbles. At this point, the valve of the positive pressure chamber inlet should be closed, and then repeatedly opened and closed several times to drive out the air bubbles.秦皇岛安丰钢铁有限公司KDON(Ar)-1600020000-500型空分设备

When the amount of processing air is reduced, the rising steam and reflux liquid in the upper column will be reduced, but the reflux ratio will not change. Therefore, the reduction of processing air in a small range will not affect the purity of oxygen and nitrogen, and the reduction of processing air volume will help to reduce the pressure of the upper and lower columns. However, according to the material balance, the production of oxygen and nitrogen will naturally decrease when the amount of processing air is reduced. If the amount of processing air is too small, there will be leakage on the tray. If the heat and mass exchange of the leaked liquid is not sufficient, the purity of oxygen and nitrogen will be greatly affected, and even the normal production can not be realized. Therefore, the minimum allowable load of distillation column is generally specified.
