This utility model discloses a timed cleaning device for a
radar level gauge antenna in a
dry distillation buffer
silo. A
desalination mechanism is installed on the
radar level gauge's measuring connecting
pipe. The outlet of the
desalination mechanism's demineralized water flushing
pipe passes through the
radar level gauge's measuring connecting
pipe. The demineralized water flushing pipe is equipped with a first shut-off valve, a first
solenoid valve, and a second shut-off valve. The radar level gauge and the first
solenoid valve are connected to a PLC. The
desalination mechanism ensures that demineralized water can flush away
coal dust and
sludge from the radar level gauge antenna through the demineralized water flushing pipe. A
nitrogen pipe and a first
nitrogen purging pipe dry any residual water on the antenna. Third and fourth
nitrogen purging pipes continuously blow air, maintaining
positive pressure inside the first nitrogen purging pipe and the demineralized water flushing pipe to prevent
coal dust
backflow and blockage, and to prevent the timed flushing device from malfunctioning. Through timed cyclical purging, it is ensured that thick
coal dust and
sludge cannot accumulate on the radar level gauge antenna, allowing the radar level gauge to accurately measure the coal in the
dry distillation buffer
silo.
