Overflow in the mechanical seal water tank, overflow in the gas holder – problem

2017-01-27View Original

Thread Content

Happy New Year to everyone! Water overflows from the acetylene gas tank; it is sealed with water, and this overflow occurs all year round, which is a great waste. In winter, anti-freezing and continuous flow measures are necessary; in summer, the system should be turned on every 4 days to prevent the liquid level from dropping. The leakage of seal water is also quite severe. Theoretically, there is a dynamic equilibrium, but in practice this cannot be achieved at all; even if it is adjusted so that there is no leakage for the time being, it still lasts only about 4 hours. After 5 hours, an alarm was triggered due to excessive seal pressure. I would like to ask my friends if there are any good solutions?

“Theoretically, there is a dynamic equilibrium, but in practice it’s completely unachievable”; therefore, the approach of seeking theoretical balance is not pursued, and it’s sufficient to recycle and reuse the continuous flow of water.

Do you have any good methods for recycling?

Just build a circulating pool.

You mean it overflows into the pool, but the water contains acetylene

As long as there is no open flame, a little acetylene isn’t a problem.

Thank you so much; I really can’t think of it – is it for fire prevention reasons? ? ?
