Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a gas detection system which can be widely used in the environment of storage tanks in sewage treatment industry. Background Art
[0002] The peak flow of sewage runoff is usually temporarily stored in the regulating reservoir of a traditional sewage treatment plant, and the sewage is slowly discharged from the regulating reservoir after the maximum flow drops. This can not only avoid sewage peaks and achieve sewage recycling, but also prevent the pollution of the receiving water body by initial sewage, and also play a positive role in drainage scheduling between drainage areas.
[0003] After sewage is stored in a confined space for a certain period of time, it is easy to produce toxic and harmful gases, mainly including hydrogen sulfide H2S, ammonia NH3, methane CH4, etc. produced by anaerobic reactions. Therefore, to ensure safety, designers should analyze the areas where toxic and harmful gases may be produced in the storage tank based on the water quality characteristics of the storage tank and the spatial design characteristics of the storage tank. In areas where toxic and harmful gases are likely to form and accumulate (such as indoor grille rooms, tanks, maintenance passages, etc.), the concentration of toxic and harmful gases should be tested to ensure the safety of personnel and property.
[0004] For the detection of toxic and harmful gases in regulating and storage tanks, most manufacturers only use a single instrument diffusion detection method. This method has a slow detection response, high uncertainty, and requires the deployment of multiple instruments at different locations, which makes subsequent maintenance inconvenient.
[0005] The customer urgently needs an online detection system that can gather the gas from various detection points into the system, and the system will automatically switch to detect. In order to ensure that the gas path is not blocked by dirt, it should also have a backflush function. In order to facilitate testing and deal with special situations, it should also have a manual detection / backflush function. In order to ensure the accuracy of the sensor, it should have a calibration function. Utility Model Content

[0024] See also Figure 1-4.

[0030] In addition, in order to ensure the normal operation of the system, the system is also equipped with indicator lights, buzzers, push button switches, terminal blocks, cabinet fans and stainless steel outdoor boxes. These devices are conventional settings and are basic measures to maintain the operation of the system.
[0031] Specific embodiment
[0032] 1) Automatic detection process:
[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, after the system is turned on, the NGP gas detector 8, touch screen, NGP control board, relay control board, pressure sensor 3, flow sensor 9, temperature sensor, large pump 11, small pump 4 and other electrical components start working, and the NGP control board controls the sampling 01 of the first sampling valve 1 to be powered on through the relay control board, and the backflush solenoid valve 2 and calibration solenoid valve 6 are powered off. The process is as follows: power on -> electrical components work -> sample gas -> air inlet -> sampling valve 1 -> first gas channel convergence row 15 -> backflush solenoid valve 2 -> pressure sensor 3 -> small pump 4 -> manual three-way valve 10 -> water and dust remover 5 -> fine filter 14 -> flow meter 7 -> air chamber -> flow sensor 9 -> emptying;
[0034] For other gases that are not currently detected, the process is as follows:
[0035] Sample gas -> air inlet -> sampling valve 1 -> second gas path convergence row 16 -> large pump 11 -> emptying;
[0036] The detection time of each sampling point is set by the user. When the sampling time is reached, the solenoid valve of this channel is powered off, and the next sampling valve 1 is powered on to realize the detection of the next sampling point. When all the detection points are detected once, the system enters the automatic backflush process.
[0037] 2) Automatic backflush process:
[0038] like Figure 3 As shown in the figure, after all sampling points have been automatically detected, the system enters the automatic backflush process. The specific process is as follows:
[0039] The large pump 11 and the small pump 4 are closed -> the back-blowing solenoid valve 2 is powered -> external compressed air -> pressure regulating filter 12 -> back-blowing solenoid valve 2 -> first gas path converging row 15 -> sampling valve 1 -> air inlet, and then the compressed air is blown into the on-site pipeline to blow out the dirt in the pipeline to ensure smooth gas path for the next test. The automatic back-blowing time is set by the user. When the back-blowing time is reached, the system enters the automatic detection process.
[0040] 3) Manual detection process:
[0041] The workflow of manual detection is consistent with that of automatic detection. The difference is that the opening and closing of the sampling valve 1 is controlled by the user on the touch screen rather than by the program. In the manual detection mode, the user can open any one or more sampling valves 1 to realize any one or more gas detection channels, and the detection time is also controlled by the user.
[0042] 4) Manual backflush process:
[0043] The workflow of manual backflush is consistent with that of automatic backflush. The difference is that the opening and closing of the sampling valve 1 is controlled by the user on the touch screen instead of program control. In the manual backflush mode, the user can open any one or more sampling valves 1 to realize any one or more gas backflush, and the backflush time is also controlled by the user.
[0044] 5) Sensor calibration process:
[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, in order to ensure the detection accuracy, the sensor needs to be calibrated regularly. The process is as follows:
[0046] Touch screen manually starts calibration -> Calibration solenoid valve 6 is powered on -> Large pump 11 and small pump 4 are powered off -> Standard gas is introduced -> Wait for data to stabilize -> User completes calibration on touch screen -> Calibration completed -> System enters automatic detection process.
[0047] The gas detection system of the present application can automatically detect and automatically backflush, which greatly reduces the workload of operation and maintenance personnel. The number of detection routes, detection gas types, and automatic detection and backflush time of the system can be configured according to user needs. The system has a reserved sensor calibration function to ensure the detection accuracy of the instrument.
[0048] In summary, the above-mentioned implementation modes are not limitative implementation modes of the present invention, and any modification or equivalent deformation made by technicians in this field on the basis of the essential content of the present invention is within the technical scope of the present invention.
