What happens to the corrosion inhibitor pump every winter

2024-11-06View Original

Thread Content

Every winter, the corrosion inhibitor pump fails to deliver the required flow rate. Upon disassembly, crystals and white substances were found inside the pump. I wonder if you’ve encountered this before; how can it be solved?

Low temperatures in winter can cause the corrosion inhibitor to crystallize inside the pump. The solution can be attempted through the following steps: 1. Check the appropriate temperature range for the corrosion inhibitor to ensure that the material used is suitable for the local climate conditions. 2. Use insulation measures around the pump, such as installing insulation layers or using heating strips. 3. Clean the interior of the pump regularly to prevent crystallization caused by long-term residue. 4. The pumping frequency and speed can be adjusted to prevent prolonged idling. If the above methods still do not resolve the issue, it is recommended to contact the equipment supplier or a professional technician to check whether the pump and the corrosion inhibitor are compatible, or whether the equipment needs to be replaced. .

An external electric heating tape is wrapped around it, and then a layer of insulating rock wool is applied. That’s it

What you said is so right: handshake

Since demineralized water is not used for preparing the corrosion inhibitor solution, salt ions are present in the inhibitor, and the high-temperature heating causes these salts to crystallize
