Screw compressor bearing burnt out

From the starting characteristics of the motor driving the air compressor, it can be seen that the current of the motor starting is several times larger than that of normal operation. The strong starting current has a great influence on the motor itself, transformer and transmission line. In order to reduce the starting time and starting current, no-load is a more effective measure. Based on this requirement of motor starting, before starting the air compressor, the pressure of all levels of pressure gauges should be checked. If there is air, the air should be released.

During the start-up phase, when the liquid volume accumulates in the condensing evaporator, the gas and liquid mixture will pass through the liquid air and liquid nitrogen throttle valves. When the throttle valve begins to close, due to the large opening of the valve, when the amount of gas and liquid mixture from the lower column to the upper column changes little, and the pressure of the lower column does not increase significantly, it means that the temperature difference of the condensing evaporator has not increased. At this time, the condensing evaporator and the surrounding insulation have been cooled to the low temperature required by the liquid accumulation stage. Due to a large amount of cold production and a large amount of gas liquefaction, the liquid evaporation in the condensing evaporator is also increased. The rising steam produced prevents the flow of liquid from the sieve plate hole, and gradually accumulates liquid on the tray, so the liquid level will drop. In ad

The quality of air separation plant installation is an important part to ensure the overall quality of air separation plant, so the safety of air separation plant installation is very important. The safety precautions in the installation of air separation plant are summarized as follows. 1. The installation and construction of air separation plant must be carried out in strict accordance with the “Safety Technical Operation Regulations” of the construction unit. 2. The construction personnel of air separation plant must work with certificate, and safety belt must be fastened during climbing operation to ensure safety protection of high-altitude operation. 3. The hot work in the air separation plant area must go through the fire operation procedures, and the fire can be started only after the procedures are complete, and there must be a special person to take care of the hot work process. 4. During the pipeline strength pressure test of air separation plant, other operations

The skid mounting of equipment refers to connecting the pipelines, equipment, pumps, control cabinets, electrical instruments and other components of the complete set into a whole according to the designed process flow, and fixing them on an integral base through welding, bolting and other connection methods. Without site installation, it can be directly completed the mechanical and electrical integration installation of the whole set in the plant area, then transporting and hoisting will be convenient.

The air contains 0.932% of argon. When the upper tower wants to produce 99.6% of oxygen, it must contain 1.05% of argon in the nitrogen exhaust. From the perspective of the separation process, the stripping section (below the liquid-air inlet) in the upper column is basically an oxygen-argon separation, and the rectification section (above the liquid-air inlet) is basically a nitrogen-oxygen (argon) separation. . The boiling points of argon and oxygen are relatively close (the boiling point of o...
