For example, a process, method, system, product or device including a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but can optionally include steps or units not listed, or can optionally include other steps or units inherent to the process, method, product or device.
[0017] As shown in the ethylene oxide device online analyzer maintenance safety management system, the DCS control system is composed of multiple groups of signal detection, transmission and sensor, is arranged at the state identification position of the corresponding equipment, and has light signals and control buttons for remote information identification and control. Figure 1 The field management control system is arranged in the corresponding monitoring station, independently collects the running state information of each equipment, and judges and controls the state according to the light information and buttons. The DCS control system and the field management control system identify the equipment state in real time through wireless signal transmission, control the running of the corresponding equipment under the confirmation of bidirectional information, and improve the safety management effect. The DCS control system and the field management control system can automatically produce maintenance curves and maintenance plans, and remind the corresponding personnel through the terminal.
[0018] The control method of the ethylene oxide device online analyzer maintenance safety management system comprises the following steps: step 1, the equipment needing maintenance is pressed by the maintenance application button, the DCS control system confirms the information, the corresponding response light is turned on, and the information is sent to the field management system after identifying the maintenance state; step 2, after the field management system in the monitoring station identifies the corresponding signal, the corresponding button light will be always on, and the gas switching valve can be controlled to be opened or closed, and after completing the opening and closing correction or inspection, it can be closed by rotating the knob or automatically delayed; step 3, after completing the correction and inspection in step 2, the current instrument fault is identified, if the analyzer is identified to be fault-free, the maintenance closing button is started, the light of the DCS system is extinguished, and the reset instruction information is sent to the corresponding maintenance application button. After completing all maintenance work, the analyzer calibration record is automatically recorded to generate a deviation curve for comparison, the failure rate and reliability analysis of the related equipment are obtained through the deviation curve statistics, and the specific problem details of the equipment can also be reflected and summarized.
[0019] In step 1, if there is no subsequent operation after the DCS control system identifies the maintenance operation and responds with light, it will automatically judge and refuse maintenance after 5 minutes, the maintenance application light is extinguished, and the gas valve cannot be opened. After the DCS control system identifies the maintenance operation signal and flashes the light, the corresponding instrument equipment is reminded and displayed, and after identifying the maintenance closing signal, the information is transmitted to the field management system in the monitoring station, the current state is judged, and the light is turned off. In step 2, the gas switching valve will identify the corresponding control signal, but after no specific operation, it will automatically control to close after 100 seconds, and in step 3, if the analyzer analyzes that the maintenance button cannot be closed, the corresponding data content will be returned to the monitoring station, and the maintenance application corresponding bit number button will be always on. In step 2, after the gas switching valve is automatically closed after 100 seconds, the knob will identify the current state, and the next application must be executed after rotating back to the OFF state. When in use, all data changes and manual operation contents will be collected and processed, and when maintenance work is performed, the current equipment state information will be summarized every 30 minutes and automatically identified to ensure the normal operation of the maintenance work. After completing the overall repair and maintenance, the corresponding data is uploaded to the report generation module, and the operator can create personalized reports (tables or charts) through the character attributes (state, responsible person, label and date, etc.). The report includes reading failure rate and calibration record curve report, annual failure rate and calibration record curve report, monthly utilization rate report, annual utilization rate report, repair and maintenance calibration record report, and the data report can be exported in CSV, Excel, PDF and other formats.
[0020] When in use, after the operator presses the maintenance application button, the response light starts, the DCS control system displays the maintenance flash, at this time the field management system also receives the corresponding identification signal and displays the corresponding button constant, at this time the maintenance personnel can control the standard gas switching valve, after completing the valve inspection, the control program of the corresponding valve is started, and whether the primary instrument is faulty is identified again. When the maintenance is completed, the detection module returns the current equipment state information, and sends the maintenance application light off command to the two control systems respectively, and the whole maintenance management work can be completed after the verification is completed. In this process, the two systems update the equipment running state in real time, and prompt the corresponding personnel work information.
