Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pressure measurement, in particular to a differential pressure transmitter used for chemical pipelines. Background Art

[0002] The differential pressure transmitter is a typical self-balancing detection instrument. It uses the working principle of negative feedback to overcome the influence of adverse factors such as component materials and processing technology. The differential pressure transmitter is used to prevent the medium in the pipeline from directly entering the transmitter. The pressure-sensitive diaphragm and the transmitter are connected by a capillary filled with fluid. It is used to measure the liquid level, flow rate and pressure of liquid, gas or steam, and then convert it into an electrical signal output. The measurement principle of the differential pressure transmitter is: the high-pressure and low-pressure media measured in the pipeline pass through the pressure-leading pipeline to transfer the media to the isolation diaphragms at both ends of the differential pressure sensor, and then the differential pressure sensor converts the pressure signal into an electrical signal, and the electrical signal of the sensor is amplified and processed by the transmitter circuit and transmitted to the back-end acquisition circuit.

[0003] The traditional differential pressure transmitter connects the symmetrical pressure interfaces at both ends of the differential pressure sensor to the joints on the measured pipeline to achieve the transmission measurement of high and low pressure media, and then the processing circuit transmits the signal processing to the back end. This structure requires opening two measurement holes on the measured pipeline and leading out two joints, which is not convenient for installation and is prone to pressure leakage at the pipeline connection point.

[0028] In order to simplify the structure and the number of parts, the utility model forms the connection section and the sensor section in one piece, and a plug-in groove is provided on the side wall between the connection section and the sensor section. A seal 6 is fixedly provided on the side wall of the plug-in groove near one end of the sensor section. The seal 6 of the utility model adopts an ED ring, which is an industrial seal 6. As a special seal 6 for pneumatic and hydraulic joints such as pipe joints, hydraulic plugs, and transition joints, it has a better sealing effect than the traditional O-ring and can isolate the external environment from the low-pressure port. The connection section is inserted into the detection hole of the chemical pipeline, and the seal 6 at the plug-in groove is fixedly sealed and connected to the detection hole. In order to prevent the medium between the high-pressure port and the low-pressure port from being connected, thereby increasing the measurement accuracy, the utility model is fixedly provided with a first O-ring 1 on the side wall of the connection section. After the connection section is inserted into the chemical pipeline, the first O-ring 1 can prevent the high-pressure port and the low-pressure port from being connected.

[0031] During operation, the high-pressure medium of the chemical pipeline under test flows in from the high-pressure flow channel at the bottom and is isolated and sealed from the outside world through the first sealing ring. The low-pressure medium of the chemical pipeline under test flows in through the low-pressure flow channel on the side of the connecting section, and the pressures at both ends are isolated and sealed from the outside world by the action of the first sealing ring and the second sealing ring. The two media flow into the isolation diaphragms at both ends of the differential pressure sensor, and the differential pressure signal of the differential pressure sensor is converted into an electrical signal, and then amplified and processed by the back-end circuit and transmitted to the acquisition system to realize differential pressure measurement.

[0032] When media of different pressures flow into the connecting section of the pressure joint 2, the low-pressure medium enters the low-pressure flow channel from the low-pressure port opened on the side wall of the connecting section, flows in through the low-pressure flow channel, and is isolated from the high-pressure flow channel under the action of the first sealing ring, and then the low-pressure medium flows into the negative end diaphragm of the differential pressure sensor through the bottom opening of the step groove and the channel of the differential pressure welding seat 3; the high-pressure medium enters the high-pressure flow channel from the high-pressure port opened at the bottom of the connecting section, flows into the side channel through the high-pressure flow channel, enters the space between the side wall of the differential pressure base 7 and the inner wall of the step groove through the side channel, and then enters the positive end diaphragm of the differential pressure sensor through the medium passage of the differential pressure base 7. The second sealing ring is used to seal and separate the internal space of the step groove, so that the low-pressure medium and the high-pressure medium in the step groove are not connected, and the third sealing ring is used to close the step groove so that the medium therein does not flow into the shell 13. The differential pressure sensor converts the pressure signals of high-pressure and low-pressure media into electrical signals. After the sensor signals are amplified and processed by the circuit board 11, they are transmitted to the acquisition system through the transmission line to realize differential pressure measurement. The housing 13 provides protection for the entire differential pressure transmitter. The utility model realizes the transmission of two differential pressure media in the differential pressure transmitter, avoiding the unreliability or pressure leakage caused by the need to install two pressure interfaces in the traditional differential pressure transmitter.

At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the idea of ​​the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
