Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a disturbance-free starting and mixing control switching system for a raw material pump group. Background Art
[0002] At the beginning of a petrochemical plant, raw materials are transported by pipeline from raw material tanks. After the raw material pump group is lifted and operated normally, the subsequent process needs to be mixed and fed, which can be operated by the local PLC control one-key switching system. In the actual operation process, two pumps need to be enabled (for the sake of convenience, they are called pump A and pump B). The amount of raw materials delivered by pump A cannot meet the processing needs of the production unit, and pump B needs to be started to increase the delivery of raw materials. However, due to the excessive back pressure difference, pumps A and B will stop one after another, resulting in the inability of the unit to feed normally and interrupting continuous production.

[0023] The utility model provides Figure 1-2 The shown system is a disturbance-free starting and mixing control switching system for a raw material pump group, comprising a first raw material tank 101 and a second raw material tank 102. The outlet pipeline of the first raw material tank 101 is respectively connected to the first volumetric variable frequency pump 201 and the second volumetric variable frequency pump 202, and the outlet pipeline of the second raw material tank 102 is connected to the second volumetric variable frequency pump 202. A remote shut-off valve is provided on the pipelines between the two raw material tanks and the connected variable frequency pumps. A remote pressure transmitter, a check valve 8 and a flow meter are provided on the branch outlet pipelines of the two variable frequency pumps. The two remote pressure transmitters and the two flow meters are electrically connected to the differential pressure controller 111 and the ratio controller 112, respectively. The branch outlet pipelines of the two variable frequency pumps are connected to the main outlet pipeline, the main outlet pipeline is connected to the intermediate buffer tank, and a remote pressure transmitter and a pipeline static mixer 9 are provided on the main outlet pipeline.
[0024] A first remote shut-off valve 601 is provided on the pipeline between the first raw material tank 101 and the first positive displacement variable frequency pump 201, a third remote shut-off valve 603 is provided on the pipeline between the first raw material tank 101 and the second positive displacement variable frequency pump 202, and a second remote shut-off valve 602 is provided on the pipeline between the second raw material tank 102 and the second positive displacement variable frequency pump 202; further, a manual operating valve 7 is provided on the outlet pipelines of the first raw material tank 101 and the second raw material tank 102, which can close the pipeline in time when the remote shut-off valve fails or malfunctions to avoid further losses.
[0025] The first remote pressure transmitter 301 , the second remote pressure transmitter 302 , and the third remote pressure transmitter 303 are respectively equipped with a corresponding first local pressure gauge 401 , a second local pressure gauge 402 , and a third local pressure gauge 403 .
[0026] A first flow meter 501 and a second flow meter 502 are respectively provided on the branch outlet pipelines of the first positive displacement variable frequency pump 201 and the second positive displacement variable frequency pump 202 .
[0027] The first remote pressure transmitter 301 and the second remote pressure transmitter 302 are both electrically connected to the differential pressure controller 111 ; the first flow meter 501 and the second flow meter 502 are both electrically connected to the ratio controller 112 .
[0028] The two variable frequency pumps, three remote shut-off valves, three remote pressure transmitters, two flow meters, a differential pressure controller 111 , and a ratio controller 112 are all electrically connected to the PLC control system 10 .
[0029] The PLC control system 10 presets two working conditions:
[0030] Working condition 1: feeding from the first raw material tank 101 and discharging through the first positive displacement variable frequency pump 201 and the second positive displacement variable frequency pump 202;
[0031] Working condition 2: the first raw material tank 101 and the second raw material tank 102 are mixed and fed, and the materials are discharged through the first positive displacement variable frequency pump 201 and the second positive displacement variable frequency pump 202 .
[0032] The specific operation steps of a raw material pump group non-disturbance starting and mixing control switching system are as follows:
[0033] See also Figure 1-2 In the actual operation of this embodiment, when the first volumetric variable frequency pump 201 cannot meet the processing volume demand of the production device, it is necessary to start the second volumetric variable frequency pump 202 to increase the delivery volume of the raw materials. Because the first volumetric variable frequency pump 201 and the second volumetric variable frequency pump 202 merge into the main outlet pipeline, when the second volumetric variable frequency pump 202 is started at zero pressure, the outlet pressure PT-2B is less than the pressure PT-1 of the discharge pipeline. Due to the excessive back pressure difference, the outlet flow of the second volumetric variable frequency pump 202 is blocked, causing the pipeline vibration to increase, and the motor current of the second volumetric variable frequency pump 202 is overloaded and tripped, thereby causing the first volumetric variable frequency pump 201 and the second volumetric variable frequency pump 202 to stop pumping successively, which is easy to cause mechanical damage to the volumetric variable frequency pump and the instruments on the pipeline, and the device cannot feed normally and interrupts production.
[0034] In order to achieve the smooth operation of the first positive displacement frequency conversion pump 201 and the second positive displacement frequency conversion pump 202, the first remote pressure transmitter 301 and the second remote pressure transmitter 302 are respectively arranged on the branch outlet pipelines of the first positive displacement frequency conversion pump 201 and the second positive displacement frequency conversion pump 202, and the instrument signals of the two remote pressure transmitters are transmitted to the PLC control system 10 and the working condition 1 is executed: the first remote cut-off valve 601 and the third remote cut-off valve 603 are opened, the second remote cut-off valve 602 is closed, and the second remote cut-off valve 602 is closed. At this time, the PLC control system 10 calculates the pressure difference between the first remote pressure transmitter 301 and the second remote pressure transmitter 302 through the differential pressure controller 111, and controls the first positive displacement frequency conversion pump 201 and the second positive displacement frequency conversion pump 202 respectively, and performs frequency conversion speed regulation to reduce the influence of the back pressure difference at the outlets of the two positive displacement frequency conversion pumps and control the working current of the positive displacement frequency conversion pump motor within the allowable range, so as to realize the operation of the first positive displacement frequency conversion pump 201 and the smooth start-up of the second positive displacement frequency conversion pump 202 at the same time.
[0035] See also Figure 1-2 If the subsequent process such as device production requires mixed feed, the PLC control system 10 can be switched to the execution condition 2, first close the third remote shut-off valve 603, then open the first remote shut-off valve 601 and the second remote shut-off valve 602, and the data signals of the first flow meter 501 (FT-1A, active quantity) and the second flow meter 502 (FT-1B, driven quantity) are transmitted to the PLC control system 10. The ratio controller 112 controls the flow rates of the first positive displacement variable frequency pump 201 and the second positive displacement variable frequency pump 202 according to the set proportional coefficient required by the process to achieve the material mixing degree required by the process (active quantity = driven quantity * ratio control coefficient K), and send them to the pipeline static mixer 9 and the intermediate buffer tank to complete further material mixing.
[0036] See also Figure 3 , wherein the flow rate measured by the first flow meter 501 is Q1A (active quantity), and the flow rate measured by the second flow meter 502 is Q1B (driven quantity). According to the proportional coefficient required by the set process, under the action of the ratio controller 112, the PLC control system 10 controls the flow rates of the first positive displacement frequency conversion pump 201 and the second positive displacement frequency conversion pump 202 respectively, so that the value of Q1B changes with the value of Q1A (active quantity = driven quantity * ratio control coefficient K).
[0037] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Any technician familiar with the profession, without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention, makes any simple modifications, equivalent changes and modifications to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention, which still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
