The main function of the pre cooling system is to cool the moist air after the air compressor is pressurized, and further wash the micro particle dust and some water-soluble substances (NH3) in the air Impurities such as SO2, etc. The air cooled by the air cooling tower is approximately saturated with humid air. According to the working characteristics of the purification system, the lower the temperature of the humid air exiting the air cooling tower, the lower the water content, which is more conducive to reducing the adsorption load of the purification system.
Working principle and process: The air cooling tower is divided into two sections. The lower section is cooled by circulating water, while the upper section is cooled by chilled water. Cooling water and chilled water are directly used to exchange heat with moist air on the loose packing to reduce the temperature of the humid air. Cooling water is introduced from the lower part of the air cooling tower, while chilled water is introduced from the upper part of the air cooling tower. The cooling water comes from the factory's cooling water supply network pool, which is pressurized by the cooling water pump and introduced. After heat exchange, it is collected at the bottom of the air cooling tower and returned to the cooling water return network. The chilled water comes from a circulating water pool and comes into contact with dry ammonia wastewater in the water-cooling tower. It uses the latent heat of water vaporization to achieve cooling, and then further lowers the temperature through an ammonia freezer. It is then pressurized and introduced into the chilled water pump. A water collector is installed at the top of the air cooling tower to separate the free water carried in the air.

In the process of operation, especially in the start-up and shutdown of the air separation unit, one-way force should be avoided on the instrument. During the start-up of the equipment, close the high pressure and low pressure valves firstly, then open the balance valve, and then slowly open the high pressure (or low pressure) valve, so that the measured medium can enter the positive (negative) pressure chamber of the transmitter. If the liquid is to be measured, the gas in the positive (negative) pressure chamber should be discharged from the upper vent. If the gas is measured, drain the liquid accumulated in the positive (negative) pressure chamber from the lower drain screw hole. After discharging the gas (liquid), close the balance valve, and then open the valve on the other side. When the equipment is shut down, the high pressure (or low pressure) valve should be closed first, then the balance valve should be opened, and then the valve should be closed on the other side.
