The Tricon anti-surge chart for anti-surge control in centrifugal compressors
Thread Content
This post was last edited by MTO001 on 2021-9-28 at 16:26. There are several types of anti-surge control systems used in large centrifugal compressors; in the four projects I have worked on, three used Tricon systems, while one used a CCC anti-surge control system. The anti-surge control systems of these two companies each have their advantages. In terms of personal preference, CCC is more user-friendly than Tricon; however, CCC relies on numerous associated instruments, and system disruptions caused by failures in these instruments are greater compared to those in Tricon. The forms and configurations of anti-surge control vary slightly across different projects. 1. SHENGU Automatic Control 2. CCC 3. Tricon. There are many descriptions of anti-surge control systems; below, the meaning of each line in the anti-surge diagram for Tricon is explained in detail. In fact, all the lines in the anti-surge diagram are nonlinear; they are listed as linear for ease of description, and the relative distances between these lines do not represent actual distances. Taking a fixed rotational speed N as an example: For the detailed content of this article, please follow the official account: Chemical Engineering Work Notes

Thank you for sharing. When purchasing an air compressor, does one need to buy a surge curve separately? The manufacturer of the air compressors for our company’s oxygen production plant, Shengu, insisted that we pay separately to obtain the surge curve, claiming that they too need to purchase it from Shengu
We all listen with our ears; when we hear breathing, we increase the valve opening a bit
You are the best operators I’ve ever met, without a doubt.
Shenyu’s products are basically an extension of those from Tricon. Sometimes, when Shen Gu can’t handle something, they turn to people from Tricon or Conson for help
