The centrifugal compressor anti-surge valve is equipped with a bypass
Thread Content
Is it necessary to install a bypass valve on the anti-surge valve of a centrifugal compressor to prevent problems in case the anti-surge valve fails?
It is necessary to set it up to ensure everything runs smoothly. After all, the cost of installing a bypass valve is very low; if surge does occur and causes damage to the compressor, it will be far too costly.
Is a supplementary bypass valve the circuit valve?
It is very necessary to install one; generally, it is a solenoid valve with automatic control.
Is it that in addition to normal control, an electromagnetic valve is added to this valve? Is it sent by ESD? I’ve been thinking about this issue lately; I wonder whether what the original poster is suggesting is to add another valve on top of the surge valve. Experts are welcome to offer their advice
What kind of valve do you mean by a bypass valve? Is it an electromagnetic valve installed on the valve, which causes the valve to open fully in case of a power failure, or is it another valve connected in parallel?
Reply 6# paolou refers to connecting another valve in parallel
It is necessary to add a bypass valve. I installed maintenance valves on both sides of the surge valve I use, as well as a manual bypass valve.
There’s no need to set it; if it is set, how is it put into use? Keep it on idle the whole time?
It’s very necessary; I’ve seen them all – there’s one at each level :) After all, the proper operation of the engine room is of utmost importance, and the costs involved aren’t that high
It must be installed – that is, a vent pipe needs to be added, along with a valve
