Pearlescent sand, also known as expanded perlite, is widely used in the insulation box of air separation equipment due to its excellent thermal insulation performance. It has the characteristics of low thermal conductivity, good insulation performance, good chemical stability, lightweight, and easy construction.
Application of pearl sand in the cold insulation box of air separation equipment: 1. Filling material: Pearl sand, as the filling material of the cold insulation box, can effectively isolate the influence of external heat on the low-temperature environment inside the cold insulation box. 2. Cold insulation effect: Due to the low thermal conductivity and good insulation performance of pearl sand, it can significantly improve the cold insulation effect of the air separation equipment's cold insulation box and reduce the loss of cooling capacity. 3. Maintenance cost: Pearl sand has a long service life and is not prone to performance changes during use, which can reduce the maintenance cost of air separation equipment.
Therefore, the majority of the insulation materials filled in the insulation box of the air separation equipment are made of pearl sand, which benefits from its excellent thermal insulation performance and chemical stability.

The molecular sieve used in oxygen generators is the zeolite molecular sieve. It is a crystalline silica and aluminate polyhydric compound. Molecular sieves have a uniform pore size and their main function is to sieve molecules. There are three main types of molecular sieves: A, X and Y. The 13X molecular sieve is the only adsorbent currently used in liquid air separation plants. Any molecules that can be adsorbed on 3A, 4A and 5A molecular sieves can be adsorbed by 13X molecular sieves. It is c...

Pressure test before valve installation 1. In the warranty period, those with the certification and the sealing surface is intact can no longer conduct the strength test alone, but only the air tightness test can be taken before installation. 2. Within the warranty period, it has the certificate, and its sealing surface has defects such as corrosion and damage. After treatment, it must carry out the air tightness test. 3. Outside the warranty period, those with certification and intact sealing surface shall be subject to air tightness test before installation. 4. For valves that need to be degreased and disassembled on site, air tightness test shall be conducted separately before installation. 5. The safety valve shall be sent to the local quality inspection department of the project for verification before the end of installation and commissioning.
