Are there any companies that have replaced the oil-water separators in their reciprocating compressors with automatic drainage systems? At present, our company uses Weifang Shengjian reciprocating coke oven gas compressors to produce methanol; these compressors are equipped with four oil-water separators, and currently manual drainage is used, which is a time-consuming process. We would like to switch to an automatic drainage system. I was wondering if there are any companies that have already made such a change ? ? I want to go and take a look

It should be easy to implement by adding automatic devices such as level gauges and drain shut-off valves; interlocking the liquid level with the crushing and cutting process can achieve this. However, personnel must also conduct regular inspections to prevent automation failures

Yes, all newly installed compressors now come with automatic drain systems, and personnel need to conduct regular inspections.

The natural gas compressors upstream all have automatic discharge
