Leakage standard for the air recovery line of the diaphragm unloader in reciprocating compressors
Thread Content
Are there any strict standards regarding leaks in the membrane unloader leak recovery line of reciprocating compressors? Is it related to the cylinder pressure of the unit or other parameters? ? , hurry hurry hurry! ! !
The air leakage recovery line of the unloader collects instrument air, right?
Our unloader also uses instrument air, and leak recovery involves collecting the process medium that leaks from the cylinder through the packing and then releasing it
To be precise, it is used to recover the process gas that leaks from the valve. There are no strict standards for such pipelines; in the past, they were not installed because the leakage was minimal, but they are provided as a precaution.
As for the connection, it’s pretty simple – just like an air leakage recovery pipeline; the size of the pipe opening depends on the diameter specified for the unloader
Our current leakage rate is 200PPM
