Differential pressure transmitter for air separation unit

In use to avoid making the instrument one-way force, especially when driving and parking to pay attention to. When driving, you should first close the high and low pressure valves, then open the equalization valve, and then slowly open the high (or low) pressure valve, so that the measured medium enters the positive (negative) pressure chamber of the transmitter. If the liquid is measured, the gas in the positive (negative) pressure chamber should be discharged from the upper exhaust screw hole;...

Pressure relays for large air separation units

A pressure relay is also known as a pressure switch. Its function is to cut off or switch on the current when the pressure is above or below a specified value to provide an alarm. The structural principle is that an elastic element (such as a bellows) works with a spring, and when the pressure increases (or decreases) to a specified value, it is transmitted to the micro switch through a lever mechanism, which turns the switch on or off to provide an alarm.DEAR air separation production of large ...

Forms of braking for large air separation unit turbine expanders

In order to consume the work of the turbine expander when required, to control the speed, to maintain the expander at its maximum efficiency point and to prevent the turbine from flying, turbine expanders are equipped with braking devices. There are three forms of braking commonly used on turbine expanders, namely pneumatic, motor and booster brakes. Most large oxygen generators use motor brakes, while booster brakes are a more advanced form of braking, which can recover the work of the expander...

Large air separation unit expander brake motor failure

The principle of the electric motor braking expander is to use the braking torque generated by the generator braking state of the motor to control the speed of the expander, if the braking motor fails, the expander speed will be out of control and it will overspeed. At this time, it is necessary to automatically open the protection control system, the method is that the speed measuring motor will send the overspeed signal, so that the three-way solenoid valve power off, the three-way solenoid va...

Pressure thermometers in large air separation unit

Pressure thermometers are made using the principle that the working medium (gas, vapour or liquid) in a sealed container changes in pressure as the temperature changes. In the use, installation to pay attention to the following issues.Filled with gas or liquid pressure type thermometer instrument readings not only with the temperature of the temperature packet, and by the capillary tube and spring tube temperature, that is, the impact of the surrounding environment temperature, although the use ...

Selection of Thermometers for Large Air Separation Plants

Resistance thermometer. It is composed of thermal resistance and its matching display instrument. The thermal resistance element is made of the characteristic that the resistance value of metal (or semiconductor) changes with temperature. Therefore, the change of temperature can be measured by measuring the change of resistance. Platinum thermal resistance (graduation number is Pt100) can be used to measure the temperature in the range of -200 ~ 650 ℃ in industry. In addition to the advantages o...

Why the high or low main steam temperature in large air separation units can affect the safe operation of the turbine

The turbine is used as a power source for air compressors in large air separation units, saving a large amount of energy for air separation users, and is a turbine-type mechanical device that converts the thermal energy of steam into mechanical energy. The main steam temperature or pressure has a direct impact on the safety performance of the turbine.In actual operation, as the steam inlet and high pressure parts of the turbine are in direct contact with the high temperature steam, when the stea...
