Precautions for orifice plate installation

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.

Why do molecular sieves in small air separation unit use bunk beds? Molecular sieve purifiers are used in both small and large air separation plants to purify the air. carbon dioxide, acetylene, and various hydrocarbons. Some molecular sieves small air separation unit use a double bed because the adsorption capacity of activated alumina is relatively large for air with high water content, but as the water content of the air decreases, the adsorption capacity decreases rapidly. The molecular s...

It should contact with the front and rear processes when the piston compressor is ready to stop, we should pay attention to the following sequence: first, cut off the gas supply slowly. In order to prevent the outlet pressure from rising after the gas supply is cut off, open the vent valve at the same time. For the oxygen compressor, the vent valve should be opened slowly, because excessive opening may produce static electricity and cause fire. Then, stop the motor. After the motor stops, turn off the circulating oil pump, grease injector motor and cooling water valve. However, there are also exception cases. For example, in case of emergency shutdown, in order to save time and prevent the accident from expanding, the power supply can be cut off immediately to stop the compressor with load.
