Low suction pressure in the reciprocating compressor
Thread Content
The workshop is equipped with a single-stage, double-cylinder hydrogen reciprocating compressor; it normally draws in air at a pressure of 2.6 Mpa. Currently, the intake pressure is 2.3 Mpa, while the exhaust pressure is normal. The filter in the intake pipeline was also cleaned, but it didn’t help. I’m asking the experts: what other reasons could possibly cause low suction pressure?
Have you checked the air valve of the compressor to see if there are any problems?
It's still caused by low gas supply pressure. It is necessary to contact the higher-level gas supply unit to confirm the issues regarding pressure and flow rate.
Faced with such a problem, I’m at a loss for words.
The pressure drop across the entire reaction system has increased. What is the pressure at the cold high-pressure section?
A leaky intake valve can also cause low intake pressure, right?
