Please give advice from experts: The outlet of a reciprocating compressor whose medium is hydrogen should be equipped with temperature display, high alarm and interlock. Why?
Not just hydrogen compressors, but all industrial compressors should be equipped with temperature displays, alarms and interlocks. Because gas will generate heat after compression, temperature changes must be monitored at all times. The compressor's valve sealing parts, piston rings, support rings, packing and other consumable parts materials have temperature limits. Serious damage caused by high temperatures may cause open leaks or other mechanical secondary accidents. So it needs to be monitored.
Can you analyze it more deeply?
