How does the Hampson liquid level meter measure the liquid level?

When replacing the working liquid in the liquid level meter, the positive and negative pressure inlet valves should be closed, and the equal pressure valve between the positive and negative pressure chambers should be opened so that the pressure difference between the two sides is zero, then the inlet cover should be opened to replace the liquid. Otherwise the working liquid inside the tube may be ejected under the action of the differential pressure. The type of working fluid contained inside s...

Differential pressure transmitters for liquid air separation plants

There are two types of differential pressure transmitters, electric and pneumatic. Here we only introduce the structure principle of pneumatic differential pressure transmitter, the role of differential pressure transmitter is to convert the differential pressure signal into 0.02 ~ 0.1MPa air pressure signal, for long-distance transmission, and to the display instrument display or record down.The measured pressure difference P1 and P2 are introduced into the positive and negative pressure chambe...

Liquid air separation plant fractionation tower system for heating

Liquid air fractionation plant after a long period of operation, in the fractionation tower system of low temperature containers and pipelines may produce ice, dry ice, hydrocarbons and other deposits, resulting in a gradual increase in device resistance, increased energy consumption, affecting the purity and yield of the product. For this reason, whenever the unit runs after a cycle, the fractionator system should generally be fully warmed and thawed to remove these deposits.Liquid air separati...

Liquid air separation unit in the cold box piping considerations

In order to reduce the cold loss caused by improper piping arrangement in the cold box, the following points should be noted when piping in the cold box.1, the pipelines can not touch each other, hot and cold pipes should be left a certain distance.2, a variety of liquid pipeline or cold tube should be as close as possible to the internal cold container, gas pipeline arrangement in the liquid pipeline outside.3, gas pipeline from the wall of the cold box should be a certain distance.4、The liquid...

Liquid air separation units commonly used in the liquid column type pressure gauge

Elastic pressure gauge is made according to the principle of deformation of elastic components under pressure. Commonly used elastic components are spring tube, elastic diaphragm, membrane box, bellows, etc., and its working principle is the same. The structural principle of the spring tube manometer is shown in Figure 114. It is a hollow metal tube bent into a 270° arc, the tube cross-section is oval or flat circle, the free end of the tube is closed, the other end is fixed on the connector...

Liquid air separation plant temperature measurement instrument common failures

Thermocouple thermometer common fault for the indication of low value, or stop at zero. This is due to the thermocouple generated problems, may be poor contact or broken circuit, generally do not appear to indicate the phenomenon of high.In order to ensure the measurement accuracy, the use of the cold end of the temperature compensation should be correct (commonly used compensation wire method), and pay attention to the thermal electrode and the earth between a good insulation.RTD thermometer co...

Heating and thawing operation of fractionation column system of liquid air separation plants

The liquid air separation plant operates normally for about two years, and the fractionation tower system should be heated and thawed. Because the liquid air separation plant has been running for a long time, the low-temperature equipment and pipelines in the rectification system will be blocked due to the internal precipitation of ice or mechanical powder, resulting in an increase in the resistance of the fractionation tower. Therefore, it is necessary to warm and thaw the fractionator system t...
