Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pH measurement, in particular to a bypass pipe for installing and measuring a pH sensor. Background Art

[0002] In the process of producing sodium lauryl polyoxyethylene ether sulfate, the pH value of the material is crucial. Sodium lauryl polyoxyethylene ether sulfate must maintain a high pH value (8 - 11) during the production process to ensure the product quality. Therefore, the accuracy and stability of the pH value are important means to guide the production personnel to produce qualified products.

[0003] Currently, the pH sensor is directly installed in the production pipeline. On the one hand, since the pH sensor needs to be installed on the pipeline at the outlet of the semi-finished product transfer pump, and the pressure on the pipeline is 0.3 MPa, when the transfer pump is not started during the driving process, the pressure is -0.95 KPa. Such a complex working environment will damage the pH sensor. On the other hand, the flow rate of the medium in the production pipeline is fast, and the erosion of the sensor is serious, which will affect the service life of the probe. In addition, since sodium lauryl polyoxyethylene ether sulfate is a paste-like liquid, there will be product accumulation at the sensor probe, resulting in inaccurate measurement, and sometimes even data fluctuations and inability to measure, causing unnecessary losses to production.

[0009] In an embodiment of the present invention, a sealing member is provided in the internal thread connector, and the sealing member is made of PTFE.

[0019] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation manners of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. It should be noted that, without conflict, the following embodiments and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0020] Please refer to Figure 1 , the present utility model provides a bypass pipe for pH sensor installation and measurement, which includes a production pipeline 1 and a bypass pipeline 2 connected in parallel therewith. A pH sensor 3 is arranged in the bypass pipeline 2. The bypass pipeline 2 is in a "C" shape. The first end of the bypass pipeline 2 is connected to the production pipeline 1 through an inlet ball valve 6, and the second end of the bypass pipeline 2 is connected to the production pipeline 1 through an outlet ball valve 5. The flow direction of the medium in the production pipeline 1 is consistent with the direction from the first end to the second end. The bypass pipeline 2 is connected with a downwardly arranged discharge pipeline 7 near the first end, and a discharge ball valve 8 is arranged on the discharge pipeline 7.

[0021] The present utility model measures the pH in the parallel bypass pipeline 2. The fluid flow rate in the bypass pipeline 2 can be adjusted through the ball valve, ensuring a stable measurement environment in the bypass pipeline 2, making the measurement more accurate, and avoiding damage to the pH sensor 3 caused by high-speed scouring of the medium.

[0022] When the device is started and running, after the transfer pump starts and operates normally, place a material collection bucket below the discharge port of the discharge pipeline 7, open the discharge ball valve 8, and then slowly open the inlet ball valve 6. Stop opening the inlet ball valve 6 when there is continuous discharge of materials at the discharge port. At this time, open the outlet ball valve 5 and close the discharge ball valve 8 to make the pH sensor 3 enter the normal operating state. The valve position of the inlet ball valve 6 can be adjusted according to the comparison between the pH value obtained by the chemical analysis laboratory for the material and the pH value measured by the sensor, making the measurement of the sensor more accurate.

[0023] Further, the bypass pipeline 2 includes a lower horizontal section, a vertical section, and an upper horizontal section. The vertical section of the bypass pipeline 2 is connected to the lower horizontal section and / or the upper horizontal section by a bend pipe. Preferably, the lower horizontal section of the bypass pipeline 2 is connected to the vertical section by a bend pipe, which can ensure that the bypass pipeline 2 can discharge materials more cleanly and thoroughly when discharging materials.

[0024] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the pH sensor 3 is detachably connected to the bypass pipeline 2.

[0025] By setting the pH sensor 3 to be detachable, the present utility model can realize the online installation and removal of the pH sensor 3, facilitating the maintenance and calibration of the pH sensor 3.

The other end of the sensor is connected to the transmitter through a cable 10. All other connection methods that can make the pH sensor 3 and the bypass pipe 2 detachable are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Furthermore, a sealing member is provided in the internal thread connector 4, and the sealing member is made of PTFE material. By providing the sealing member and limiting the material of the sealing member, leakage of the bypass pipe 2 at the sensor connection can be prevented.

[0028] In this embodiment, when the pH value deviation is large or the measurement fluctuates during the normal operation of the device, the inlet ball valve 6 and the outlet ball valve 5 are first closed, and then the discharge ball valve 8 is opened to relieve the pressure of the bypass pipe 2 and discharge the material, and then the pH sensor 3 is removed for inspection and the sensor is calibrated and calibrated with a standard solution to ensure the stability and accuracy of the measurement.

[0029] In one embodiment of the utility model, both ends of the inlet ball valve 6 / outlet ball valve 5 are connected to the production pipeline 1 and the bypass pipeline 2 through flanges 9 respectively. Fasteners and gaskets are also provided on the flanges 9 to ensure the tightness and firmness of the connection between the ball valve and the pipeline.

[0030] Furthermore, the bypass pipe 2, the inlet ball valve 6, the outlet ball valve 5, the discharge pipe 7, the discharge ball valve 8 and the flange 9 are all made of materials with a pressure grade of PN16 or above.

[0031] The utility model measures pH in a parallel bypass pipe, and the ball valve can adjust the fluid flow in the bypass pipe, thereby ensuring a stable measurement environment in the bypass pipe, making the measurement more accurate, and avoiding damage to the pH sensor caused by high-speed scouring of the medium. Therefore, the utility model effectively overcomes various shortcomings in the prior art and has a high industrial utilization value.
