Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of galvanized steel plate production, in particular to a remote control system for an air knife fan. Background Art
[0002] Galvanized thin steel plate is a raw material used in construction, industry and other fields. The manufacturers of galvanized plates use air knife devices and zinc pots to galvanize the surface of the steel plates. That is, the steel plates pass through the zinc pot at a certain speed so that the surface sticks to the zinc liquid. The high-pressure airflow blown out by the air knife device on both sides of the steel plates out of the zinc liquid makes the zinc liquid spread evenly and controls the thickness of the zinc layer. In this process, parameters such as wind pressure and wind speed have a great influence on the galvanizing effect. The existing air knife device can only be adjusted on-site and cannot be remotely controlled. There is no record of wind pressure adjustment, so it is impossible to conduct a review.

[0003] The main purpose of the utility model is to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art and provide an air knife blower remote control system.
[0004] The specific scheme of the utility model is: a remote control system for an air knife fan, including an air knife device, the air knife device is provided with an air inlet pipe, the inlet of the air inlet pipe is connected to a fan, the fan is a variable frequency fan, the input end of the variable frequency fan is equipped with a frequency converter, the frequency converter is used to adjust the speed of the fan, a pressure sensor is installed in the middle of the air inlet pipe, the outer end of the pressure sensor is connected to a controller, and the controller is connected to the frequency converter signal.
[0005] Furthermore, the controller is also connected to an HMI display, and the HMI is used to display the wind pressure in the intake pipe in real time.
[0006] Furthermore, the controller adopts a PLC controller.
[0007] Furthermore, a pressure gauge is installed on the air intake pipe, and the pressure gauge is used to display the air pressure in the air intake pipe in real time.
