Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of condensate pump cleaning devices, in particular to a condensate pump inlet filter cleaning device. Background Art
[0002] The main function of the condensate pump in a thermal power plant is to start the boiler and supply water, and it is also used as a water storage and replenishment container for the water level control of the condenser hot well. Specifically, the role of the condensate pump in the thermal power system is to transport the condensate in the condenser, and send it to the heat recovery system after boosting the pressure for further heating and deoxidation. In addition, the condensate pump is also responsible for boosting the pressure of the condensate in the condenser hot well (the exhaust device of the air-cooled unit), and then enters the deaerator through the shaft seal heater and the low-pressure heater for further heating and deoxidation. The pressurized condensate can also be used as cooling water for the tertiary bypass, shaft seal system, and low-pressure bypass desuperheater, as well as as a supplementary water source for users such as vacuum pumps, closed water tanks, and constant cooling water tanks.
[0003] Condensate pumps are important equipment for power generation in power plants. The inlet filter of the condensate pump is an important part of filtering and removing impurities from condensate. Dust accumulation on the filter will cause the water flow to be unsmooth, which will not only affect the efficient operation of the equipment, but also increase energy consumption and reduce the life of the equipment. Therefore, regular cleaning of the filter is an important step to ensure the safety and stable operation of the equipment.
[0004] The cleaning cycle of the filter screen at the inlet of the condensate pump is determined according to the actual situation. If blockage and dust accumulation are found, it needs to be replaced or cleaned manually in time. Traditional manual cleaning work requires manual operation, and the dirt and impurities deposited on the filter screen may not be completely removed, and it may need to be cleaned again in a short time. In addition, the process of manually cleaning the filter screen takes time and labor, which increases work costs and labor costs. Utility Model Content
[0005] The utility model aims to provide a condensate pump inlet filter screen cleaning device to solve the problem that the manual filter screen cleaning process in the prior art requires time and labor, which increases work cost and labor cost.
[0006] The utility model is realized through the following technical scheme: a condensate pump inlet filter cleaning device, comprising a flushing device, an inlet filter and a cleaning nozzle installed on a condensate pump tank body; a condensate pump inlet filter device end cover is provided on the upper part of the condensate pump tank body, the flushing device is installed on the end cover of the condensate pump inlet filter device, and the bottom of the flushing device is located inside the condensate pump tank body; the inlet filter is installed inside the condensate pump tank body, the cleaning nozzle is installed inside the condensate pump tank body and is located on the water inlet side of the inlet filter and is connected to the flushing device; a plurality of cleaning nozzles are provided, and the plurality of cleaning nozzles are connected to the flushing device through a rotating joint.
[0007] Preferably, it also includes a differential pressure monitoring device, which is installed on one side of the condensate pump tank and connected to the flushing device.
[0008] Preferably, it also includes a sewage discharge device, which is connected to the bottom of the condensate pump tank through a pipeline.

[0010] Preferably, the inlet filter is installed on both sides of the condensate pump tank in an inclined shape as a whole.
[0011] Preferably, the condensate pump tank body is a funnel-shaped structure as a whole.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects: when the inlet filter needs to be cleaned, the flushing device is opened, and then the cleaning liquid water is introduced, and then the cleaning nozzle starts to clean the inlet filter. Since the cleaning nozzle is installed on the water inlet side of the inlet filter and multiple nozzles are provided, the inlet filter can be flushed in all directions, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency, reducing the difficulty of inspection and maintenance, greatly reducing work costs and labor costs, and ensuring the safe and stable operation of the thermal power plant.
[0014] Adopting the automatic cleaning device of the filter screen at the inlet of the condensate pump without opening the cover, which improves the cleaning efficiency, reduces the difficulty of inspection and maintenance, greatly reduces the work cost and manpower cost, and ensures the safe and stable operation of the thermal power plant;
[0015] This device can provide a basis for cleaning the inlet filter according to the monitoring status of the condensate pump inlet filter differential pressure monitoring device, and notify the thermal power plant operation and duty personnel to take effective measures in time, turning the condensate pump inlet filter cleaning work from the traditional planned passive cleaning into the scope of condition maintenance.
