3C control of air compressors
Thread Content
Have you used the 3C control for air compressors in your devices? How effective is it?
Hearing you put it that way, I’m a bit confused! I checked some information and found out that it’s the anti-surge control system for the turbine unit! It’s just a more advanced anti-surge control system! Answering your question: We still use relatively traditional control circuits here; there is no 3C system as you mentioned.
Our company plans to implement a 3C control system, but we have no prior experience with it
I see that Maoshan Petrochemical uses the 3C system, and our company also plans to use it; it seems like it would be a good option
We have been using it here for a long time; generally, the operating range is manually controlled to stay within a reasonable limit! Compared to this, the 3C control is somewhat similar to the manual control phase of a loop, whereas 3C control uses control logic to transform this loop into an automatic control phase, which is highly beneficial for the stable operation of the unit!
What is being referred to is the automatic operation of the compressor’s anti-surge control; the compressor’s speed and the opening degree of the anti-surge control valve are adjusted in coordination to achieve maximum energy efficiency. The compressor operates near the anti-surge line. It is said that only 3C Company’s systems can implement this functionality, although other manufacturers also have such modules
Some companies use 3C systems; they are very useful for starting and stopping operations, and offer excellent anti-surge performance.
Is it possible to do this without using a torch? lol
Should we continue to consider fully automatic startup with no human supervision? :lol
For air compressors, Tricon is currently the standard choice; why is 3C used?
