Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gas detection, in particular to a photoionization detection device with sampling, cleaning and double dehumidification functions. Background Art

[0002] With the development of industry, various new materials and products have been invented, but more and more toxic and harmful substances have also been produced incidentally, and volatile organic compounds (VOC) are one of them. Therefore, it is necessary to detect volatile organic compounds, such as detecting the volatile organic compounds contained in a specific environment to determine the safety level of the environment.

[0003] A photoionization gas detector is a commonly used device for detecting volatile organic compound gases. The concentration of volatile organic compounds in the gas to be detected is calculated by ionizing the gas to be detected and measuring the current intensity value generated by the ionized gas. However, when the water vapor content in the gas to be detected is too high, it will seriously affect the sensitivity of the photoionization gas detector. Therefore, when using the photoionization gas detector for detection, the gas to be detected needs to be dehumidified. In the Chinese utility model patents previously applied by the applicant: "CN 218567041 U A photoionization detection device with dehumidification function" and "CN 218567040U "A dehumidifier for a detection device" introduces the dehumidification function of the photoionization gas detector in detail. However, in actual use, the photoionization gas detector also has a cleaning function. The VOC in the environment is removed by cleaning the filter to obtain clean air, thereby cleaning the gas path of the photoionization gas detector to avoid errors caused by residual gas during re-detection, making the detection result more accurate. However, in the cleaning process, the water vapor in the air is not effectively removed, so that the photoionization detector has a false alarm due to the residual water vapor in the cleaning air, affecting the accuracy of the detection.

[0004] Therefore, a photoionization detection device that can dehumidify the purge gas based on the existing technology is a problem that needs to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to address the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art and to provide a photoionization detection device with sampling, cleaning and dual dehumidification functions, so as to achieve the purpose of dehumidifying the cleaned air while maintaining the existing dehumidification of the air to be tested, so as to reduce the false alarm rate of detection and improve the detection accuracy.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: a photoionization detection device with dual dehumidification functions of sampling and cleaning, including a dehumidification device, which is connected to one side of a filter adapter, the top of the filter adapter is connected to the photoionization gas detector, and the bottom of the filter adapter is connected to the cleaning filter, and an exhaust port is provided at the other end of the filter adapter. It is characterized in that: the dehumidification device is connected to the filter adapter through a connecting pipe, a three-way interface is provided on the connecting pipe, the three-way interface is connected to the air intake pipe, the air intake pipe is connected to the air intake at the bottom of the cleaning filter, and a three-way solenoid valve is installed at the three-way interface.

[0007] Furthermore, the front end of the dehumidification device is connected to a sampling filter.

[0008] Furthermore, the sampling filter is provided with a first cover body, the upper part of the first cover body is connected to the dehumidification device, the lower part of the first cover body is connected to the first cylinder body, a sampling port is provided at the lower part of the first cylinder body, and a dust removal and drying filter element is loaded in the first cylinder body.

[0009] Furthermore, the dehumidification device includes a second cover body, in which a nafion tube is arranged, the front end of the nafion tube is connected to the sampling filter, and the end of the nafion tube is connected to the connecting pipe; the second cover body is connected to the second cylinder body below, the second cylinder body is filled with desiccant, and a drain outlet is arranged below the second cylinder body.

[0010] Furthermore, the cleaning filter is filled with activated carbon.

[0019] A first cover body 11 is provided in the sampling filter 1, and the bottom of the first cover body 11 is threadedly sealed with the first cylinder body 12, and a sampling port 121 is provided at the bottom of the first cylinder body 12, wherein the first cylinder body 12 is filled with a filter dust removal filter element, which may be a coarse filter screen, filter paper, a desiccant (anhydrous MgCl2, etc.), filter paper, etc. in sequence; dust removal and removal of most of the water can be achieved.

[0020] The first cover body 11 of the sampling filter 1 is connected to the second cover body 21 of the dehumidification device 2, and the second cover body 21 is threadedly sealed with the second cylinder body 22. A nafion tube (existing) for dehumidification is arranged in the second cover body 21, and the sample gas is discharged from the connecting pipe 211 on the other side of the second cover body 21 through the nafion tube. The second cylinder body 22 is filled with a desiccant to absorb the moisture precipitated from the nafion tube.

[0022] The principle of this utility model is:

[0023] The gas to be tested enters from the sampling port 121, and dust and impurities are removed by the sampling filter 1. The humidity of the sampled gas is reduced by the dehumidification device 2, and then the gas goes to the photoionization gas detector 4 to detect the VOC in the gas. After the gas is detected, it is discharged from the exhaust port 6; in the present utility model, the sampling filter 1 and the dehumidification device 2 are involved. As described in the background technology, the sampling filter 1 and the dehumidification device 2 have been disclosed by the applicant and belong to the prior art.

[0024] When the photoionization gas detector 4 performs self-cleaning work, the three-way solenoid valve 51 connects the dehumidification device 2 with the bottom of the cleaning filter 3, and the air enters the cleaning filter 3 from the bottom of the cleaning filter 3 through the sampling filter 1 and the dehumidification device 2 via the air inlet pipe 311 (the cleaning filter 3 and the filter adapter 7 are also prior art), thereby dehumidifying the cleaning air and removing various organic volatiles and impurities in the sampled gas through the cleaning filter 3, converting the sample gas into clean air, and then the clean air is used to purge and clean the gas path of the detector, thereby achieving the purpose of self-cleaning.

[0025] In the utility model, the sampling and cleaning gas path switching of the photoionization gas detector 4 is controlled by the three-way solenoid valve 51 at the three-way interface 5 (not shown in the figure, but it is not difficult for technical personnel in this field to understand), and the sampling and cleaning work in a cycle. The photoionization gas detector 4 is a built-in pump suction type. After reducing the humidity through the device of the utility model, the false alarm rate caused by water vapor can be reduced by more than 95%, making the photoionization gas detector 4 more accurate.
