[0037] A first connecting valve 30 is disposed at one end of the first water outlet pipe 10 close to the cooling water pump 51, and the other end of the first connecting valve 30 is connected to one of the second water outlet pipes 20;
[0038] The cooling device 3 includes two or more coolers 31 connected in parallel, wherein one of the coolers 31 is connected to the air compressor unit 2 via a first water return pipe 110, and the other two or more coolers 31 are connected to the die-casting machine 11 via a second water return pipe 40;
[0039] A second connecting valve 50 is disposed at one end of the first water return pipe 110 close to the cooler 31, and the other end of the second connecting valve 50 is connected to one of the second water return pipes 40;
[0040] The system further includes a controller (not shown in the figure), which is electrically connected to the cooling water pump 51 , the cooler 31 , the first connecting valve 30 and the second connecting valve 50 .
[0041] In this embodiment, the outlet of the cooling water pump 51 of the air compressor unit 2 can be connected with the outlet of the cooling water pump 51 of the die-casting unit 1 through the first connecting valve 30, and the water inlet of the cooler 31 of the air compressor unit 2 can be connected with the water inlet of the cooler 31 of the die-casting unit 1 through the second connecting valve 50; when the cooling water pump 51 of the die-casting unit 1 fails and stops being used, under the action of the controller, the first connecting valve 30 and the second connecting valve 50 are opened, so that the cooling water to the die-casting unit 1 can be supplied to the air compressor unit 2 at the same time, so that the air compressor unit 2 can run uninterruptedly for 24 hours.
[0042] In addition, in this embodiment, when the number of air compressor units 2 and die-casting units 1 turned on is small, the first connecting valve 30 and the second connecting valve 50 are controlled to be opened, and only one cooling water pump 51 and one cooler 31 are turned on to simultaneously meet the cooling water demand of the air compressor unit 2 and the die-casting unit 1, thereby achieving high efficiency and energy saving.
