Solutions for compressor outlet pipe vibration
Thread Content
Solutions for the vibration in the compressor’s exhaust pipelines stage by stage; spring support at the bottom of the gas cooler – experts, please provide some solutions!
First, check against the PID to see whether the on-site construction is carried out in accordance with the design requirements； Second, check the construction quality and verify whether the bolts are securely tightened ； Third, contact the designers for inspection and come up with solutions.
Vibration problems are difficult to resolve, so it is essential to avoid any potential issues during the project acceptance phase. This is related to the original connection of the pipes and the support foundations at various locations. It would be best to watch the full video so as to facilitate discussion. For reference.
First, check against the PID to see whether the on-site construction is carried out in accordance with the design requirements； Second, check the construction quality and verify whether the bolts are securely tightened ； Third, contact the company’s designers for inspection and on-site resolution.
1. Check the support. 2. Consider using flexible connections
We had it maintained by another manufacturer and conducted vibration testing; the vibration of the compressor here has significantly decreased
Spring supports generally do not improve vibration problems; an effective approach is to increase the natural frequency of the piping system while providing damping to suppress vibrations, and an outlet buffer tank is also necessary (the minimum volume needs to be calculated).
Check whether the outlet buffer tank is properly installed
