Reciprocating compressor outlet temperature overtemperature

2009-04-19View Original

Thread Content

There are several 6M50 reciprocating air compressors in my unit, and the outlet temperature exceeds 150 degrees Celsius in summer. Safety temperature exceeded. It will get better every time the air valve is replaced, but it can only last a few days at most before the temperature rises again. If anyone has any tips on how to cool down, please let me know!

Haha, the temperature is high in summer, so install a few air conditioners at the entrance to cool it down! It is recommended to add an inlet cooler. In addition, there must be something wrong with your interstage cooler. Check it out!

There must be something wrong with the cooling system. It's either clogged or severely scaled. Please clean it.

High outlet temperature has a certain relationship with internal leakage of the outlet valve, but it is not the main factor. The main reason is that the efficiency of the heat exchanger decreases. Open the heat exchanger, clean the carbon deposits outside the tubes, the scale inside the tubes, and clean the carbon deposits in the heat exchanger barrel. The temperature will naturally drop.

1 Before summer, clean the cooler, cylinder liner, and cylinder head cooling water-phase dirt; 2 Reduce the ambient temperature and strengthen ventilation and heat exchange ; 3 Try to lower the inlet gas temperature ; 4. Strengthen compressor maintenance to ensure the normal operation of the air valve. ; 5. Strengthen process operations and try not to open a valve back.

The main reason is that the first-level temperature is over-temperature, and the first-level inlet is directly connected to the atmosphere. There is no cooling system at all! This post was last edited by w1390111 on 2009-4-20 16:58 ]

There is a cooler at the primary outlet. It must be that the outlet pipe is blocked or the gas phase channel of the primary outlet cooler is blocked. If there is no problem, just remove the primary outlet pipeline and check and clean it.

Remove the dirt in the cooler and check the suction and exhaust valves. Add a filter to the cooling medium.
