Precautions for orifice plate installation

Precautions for orifice plate installation
Jul 08, 2022
Author: DEAR AST

In order to ensure the reading accuracy of orifice flowmeter, the installation of orifice flowmeter should pay attention to the following points: the installation position of orifice should be in the straight pipe section, and there should be no protruding plastic, welding marks and dirt in the pipe with a distance of ten times the pipe diameter in front of the orifice and five times the pipe diameter behind the orifice. The installation direction of the orifice plate should not be mistaken, and the sharp edge of the inlet should correspond to the flow direction of the fluid; The center of the orifice plate must coincide with the center of the pipe. The orifice plates of different fluids cannot be installed incorrectly, because the coefficient K in the flow calculation formula is related to factors such as fluid density.

In June 2016, the fifth air separation plant KDON (AR) 30000/70000-900 of Kaifeng DEAR air separation plant for Hebei Anfeng iron and Steel Co., Ltd. was successfully started up at one time, and qualified oxygen and nitrogen products were successfully debugged. The output and purity of the products reached and exceeded the technical indicators required by the contract. After more than two months of normal operation, in September 2016, the argon system was put into operation and the argon indicators were tested to meet the standards, and the argon output was stable at 950nm ³/ H above, the purity is greater than 99.999%. Win users' praise again.

Liquid air separation plant solutions Most liquid air separation plant cold energy receiving stations have a peaking role, their use is generally for domestic gas or car refuelling, with high and intermittent periods of gas consumption, for example 1-2 hour peaks in the morning and midnight. If the liquid air separation plant vapourisation plant is intermittent, the plant will not operate continuously. The solution is based on the intermittent use of liquid air separation plant and is character...

In the main column of the air separation column, the distribution of argon varies with the position of the liquid air inlet. With the increase of liquid air inlet position, the maximum concentration of argon enrichment zone in the stripping section also increases, and the nitrogen content in the distillate can be reduced. However, the argon content in the downstream also increases. In order to ensure the purity of oxygen, more trays are needed under the extraction port of argon fraction. Therefore, in the case of producing argon, the position of liquid air supply E1 should be appropriately increased compared with the case of not producing argon. Some unit is equipped with two liquid air inlet positions to meet the conditions of argon production and non argon production respectively. In the production of argon, in order to improve the extraction rate of argon, the content of argon in oxygen and nitrogen must be reduced. When the content of argon in exhaust nitrogen is more than 0.3%
