Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of gas concentration detection, in particular to a device for detecting ozone concentration using ultraviolet light. Background Art

[0002] Ozone is a highly effective disinfectant and oxidant, widely used in the purification and disinfection of drinking water, hospital sewage and industrial sewage. Ozone generator is a device used to produce ozone. Ozone output is an important technical indicator of ozone generator and a direct parameter to ensure the disinfection effect. Therefore, the scientific determination of ozone concentration is very important.

[0003] However, ozone can also cause asthma attacks in asthma patients, exacerbate chronic respiratory diseases, cause breathing disorders, damage lung function and other symptoms. Long-term inhalation of oxidants can reduce the metabolism of human cells, accelerate human aging, and cause crop yield reduction and vegetation damage. Therefore, online observation of environmental ozone concentration is of great significance.

[0004] During the operation of the ozone generator, the seals may age or corrode locally, which may lead to ozone leakage and endanger the health of the operator. The traditional method is to use a high-concentration ozone analyzer to detect the ozone output of the ozone generator and an ozone gas alarm based on the electrochemical principle to detect whether the ozone generator has leaked. However, the use of two instruments increases the production cost, and the ozone sensor based on the electrochemical principle has a large error when detecting low-concentration ozone and has a short lifespan. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the above problems, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide a dual-range ozone concentration analyzer to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a dual-range ozone concentration analyzer, comprising a first electromagnetic three-way valve, a miniature vacuum pump, a second electromagnetic three-way valve, a third electromagnetic three-way valve, and a light pool assembly, wherein the light pool assembly comprises an LED light source, a spectroscopic prism, a first light pool, a first light intensity detector, a second light pool, and a second light intensity detector; the air inlet and the air outlet of the first light pool are respectively connected to the common port of the first electromagnetic three-way valve and the air inlet of the exhaust gas processor, the normally open port and the normally closed port of the first electromagnetic three-way valve are respectively connected to the air outlet of the anti-corrosion flowmeter and the normally closed port of the third electromagnetic three-way valve, and the air inlet of the anti-corrosion flowmeter is connected to the needle The air outlet of the valve is connected, the common port of the third electromagnetic three-way valve is connected to the air outlet of the miniature vacuum pump, the air inlet and air outlet of the second light pool are respectively connected to the common port of the second electromagnetic three-way valve and the air inlet of the second ozone scrubber, the normally open and normally closed ports of the second electromagnetic three-way valve are respectively connected to the air outlet of the first ozone scrubber and a PTFE three-way joint, the air inlet of the first ozone scrubber is connected to the PTFE three-way joint, the PTFE three-way joint is connected to the particle filter, the air outlet of the second ozone scrubber is connected to the air inlet of the flow sensor, and the air outlet of the flow sensor is connected to the air inlet of the miniature vacuum pump.

[0007] Furthermore, the optical pool assembly has two optical pools with optical paths, which can simultaneously measure high-concentration ozone and low-concentration ozone. The first optical pool is a short-path optical pool (the actual optical path is 1 mm) for detecting high-concentration ozone, and the second optical pool is a long-path optical pool (the actual optical path is 200 mm) for detecting low-concentration ozone.

[0008] Furthermore, the analyzer has two working modes: when adjusting the ozone output of the ozone generator, first perform zero calibration (step 1), then switch to the dual optical path detection mode (step 2), detect the concentration of high-concentration ozone, the detection cycle is 1.5s, and the short detection cycle is convenient for adjusting the ozone concentration emitted by the ozone generator. When the ozone output of the ozone generator is adjusted in place, first perform zero calibration (step 1), then switch to the ozone leakage detection mode (step 3), and simultaneously detect the concentration of high-concentration ozone emitted by the ozone generator and the ozone concentration in the environment where the ozone generator is located. The detection cycle is 3s. The purpose of detecting the ozone concentration in the environment where the ozone generator is located is to check whether there is ozone leakage caused by aging of the seal or other failures. The specific steps include:

[0009] Step 1, zero calibration mode, after the analyzer is turned on, it is first preheated to energize the LED light source, the first light intensity detector, the second light intensity detector and the micro vacuum pump. After preheating for 10 minutes, the first electromagnetic three-way valve and the third electromagnetic three-way valve are energized for 1.5 seconds at the same time, and the second electromagnetic three-way valve is in a de-energized state. The micro vacuum pump discharges the clean, ozone-free gas that has passed through the second ozone scrubber into the first light pool. At this time, the 254nm ultraviolet light emitted by the LED light source shines through the ozone-free gas onto the first light intensity detector. After averaging the current of the first light intensity detector within a unit time, the reference current is measured. ; Simultaneously with the above measurement, a micro vacuum pump draws the ambient gas that has passed through the particle filter and the first ozone scrubber into the second light pool. At this time, the ultraviolet light emitted by the LED light source shines through the ozone-free gas onto the second light intensity detector. After averaging the current of the second light intensity detector per unit time, the reference current is measured. ;

[0010] Step 2, dual light path detection mode, after the analyzer is zeroed, it enters the dual light path detection mode. In the first 1.5s, the first electromagnetic three-way valve, the second electromagnetic three-way valve and the third electromagnetic three-way valve are all in a power-off state. The high-pressure ozone gas emitted by the high-concentration ozone generator is adjusted by the needle valve and enters the first light pool. At this time, the 254nm ultraviolet light emitted by the LED light source is irradiated onto the first light intensity detector through the high-concentration ozone gas. After averaging the current of the first light intensity detector within a unit time, the current is measured. ; Simultaneously with the above measurement, a micro vacuum pump draws the ambient gas that has passed through the particle filter and the first ozone scrubber into the second light pool. At this time, the ultraviolet light emitted by the LED light source shines through the ozone-free gas onto the second light intensity detector. After averaging the current of the second light intensity detector per unit time, the current is measured at the first 1.5s. At the same time, the micro vacuum pump discharges ozone-free gas through the normally open third electromagnetic three-way valve; the transmittance of high-concentration ozone can be calculated as , the light intensity change rate of the LED light source, that is, the light intensity correction coefficient is The corrected transmittance of high concentration ozone is , and then combined with other parameters (such as pressure and temperature), the analyzer's microprocessor system calculates the concentration of high-concentration ozone according to the Lambert-Beer law. At the second 1.5s, the induced currents of the first light intensity detector and the second light intensity detector are respectively and The corrected transmittance of high concentration ozone is , then calculate the concentration of high concentration ozone, and the following measurement steps are analogous;

[0011] Step 3, ozone leak detection mode, after the ozone output of the ozone generator is adjusted to the right position, the analyzer first enters the zero calibration mode. In the first 1.5s, after executing step 1, the reference currents of the first light intensity detector and the second light intensity detector are respectively measured. and In the second 1.5s, the ozone leak detection mode is entered. First, the second electromagnetic three-way valve is energized for 1.5s, and the first and third electromagnetic three-way valves are in a de-energized state. High-concentration ozone enters the first light pool, and the ambient gas is drawn into the second light pool. The measured values ​​are and At the same time, the micro vacuum pump discharges ozone-free gas through the normally open third electromagnetic three-way valve; the transmittance of high-concentration ozone can be calculated as , the transmittance of ozone in the environment is , and then calculate the concentrations of the two ozone. At the third 1.5s, the analyzer completes step 1 and measures the reference currents of the first light intensity detector and the second light intensity detector respectively. and At the fourth 1.5s, the analyzer completes step 3 and measures the reference currents of the first light intensity detector and the second light intensity detector as and , the transmittance of high concentration ozone can be calculated as , the transmittance of ozone in the environment is , and then calculate the concentration of the two types of ozone, and the following measurement steps are similar.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the analyzer adopts the principle structure of the dual-light path ultraviolet absorption method and has two working modes. In the dual-light path detection mode, the analyzer has a detection cycle of 1.5s, and can timely measure the ozone concentration at the current ozone generator outlet, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the output of high-concentration ozone; in the ozone leakage detection mode, the analyzer can simultaneously detect the ozone concentration at the outlet of the continuously running ozone generator and the ozone concentration in the environment where the ozone generator is located, without the need to configure additional instruments to detect whether the ozone generator is leaking, thereby reducing production costs.
