Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of compressor coolers, in particular to a nitrogen filling protection device for compressor coolers. Background Art

[0002] A compressor is a fluid machine that raises low-pressure gas to high-pressure gas. It first sucks low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas from the suction pipe, then drives the piston to compress it through the operation of the motor, and then discharges high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas to the exhaust pipe to provide power for the refrigeration cycle. The cooler of the compressor is divided into a gas cooler and an oil cooler.

[0003] If a gas cooler is used, when the compressor is in standby mode for a long time, drainage measures need to be taken on the water side of the gas cooler. However, the existing drainage measures have the following problems: (1) The cooling water is not discharged cleanly and will remain in the gas cooler for a long time without flowing, causing the accumulation of microorganisms and accelerating the corrosion of the copper tube bundle of the gas cooler; (2) The water valve is not closed tightly, causing the gas cooler to leak, shortening the service life of the gas cooler.

[0004] If an oil cooler is used, dual oil coolers are usually selected, with one in use and one as a standby under normal circumstances. However, when the compressor is stopped for standby or the compressor is put into operation and one of the oil coolers is on standby, drainage measures must also be taken on the water side of the standby oil cooler. However, existing drainage measures have the following problems: (1) The cooling water is not discharged cleanly and will remain in the oil cooler for a long time, corroding the oil cooler tube wall and causing leakage; (2) Cooling water entering the oil side will cause the oil to become turbid and fail, resulting in a large amount of oil waste; (3) Oil entering the cooling water side will pollute the circulating water quality.

[0005] Therefore, no matter the compressor uses a gas cooler or an oil cooler, once the cooling water is not completely discharged and corrosion and leakage occur, the cooler will be unusable, affecting normal production. Utility Model Content

[0006] The utility model provides a compressor cooler nitrogen filling protection device, aiming at solving the problem that the cooling tube bundles of the compressor gas cooler and the oil cooler are easily corroded and cause leakage, thus affecting the use.

[0007] To achieve its purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0009] Further, the cooler includes a second cooler connected in parallel with the first cooler and having the same structure; the second cooler is connected with a second water inlet pipe and a second water outlet pipe, the second water inlet pipe is provided with a second water inlet valve, and the second water outlet pipe is provided with a second water outlet valve; the second water inlet pipe between the second cooler and the second water inlet valve is connected with a second air source pipeline, and a second check valve (and a second nitrogen filling valve) are sequentially provided on the second air source pipeline near one end of the second water inlet pipe; the second water outlet pipe between the second cooler and the second water outlet valve is sequentially provided with a second sewage valve and a second sewage outlet.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0014] The compressor cooler nitrogen filling protection device provided by the utility model cleans the residual water in the cooler by blowing in nitrogen, thereby preventing the corrosion and leakage of the gas cooler caused by unclean cooling water discharge when the compressor is in a long-term standby state, thereby extending the service life of the gas cooler. At the same time, it avoids the problem that when the compressor oil cooler is in standby state, the lubricating oil accidentally enters the cooling water side to cause water pollution, or the cooling water enters the lubricating oil to cause oil turbidity and failure, thereby reducing the labor intensity of maintenance personnel and ensuring normal production progress.

When the first cooler 1 is in standby mode or the compressor is stopped for standby, close the first inlet valve 5 and the first outlet valve 6, discharge the cooling water in the first cooler 1, open the first nitrogen filling valve 3 to introduce nitrogen, blow away the accumulated water in the first cooler 1, and close the first drain valve 7 and the first nitrogen filling valve 3 when the nitrogen discharged from the first drain port 8 has no free water. At this time, the first cooler 1 is filled with dry nitrogen, and the pressure is maintained for standby.

[0022] Example 2

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the compressor cooler nitrogen charging protection device of this embodiment specifically takes a double oil cooler as an example, including a first cooler 1 and a second cooler 13 connected in parallel and having the same structure. The structure of the first cooler 1 refers to Example 1. The second cooler 13 is connected with a second water inlet pipe 27 and a second water outlet pipe 28, and the second water inlet pipe 27 is provided with a second water inlet valve 17, and the second water outlet pipe 28 is provided with a second water outlet valve 18; the second water inlet pipe 27 between the second cooler 13 and the second water inlet valve 17 is connected with a second gas source pipeline 14, which is used to pass instrument nitrogen when the second cooler 13 is on standby. The second gas source pipeline 14 is provided with a second check valve 16 and a second nitrogen charging valve 15 in sequence near one end of the second water inlet pipe 27.

Specifically, there are indicator positions on the first switching valve 10 and the second switching valve 24. When the first cooler 1 and the second cooler 13 are operated in parallel, the first switching valve 10 and the second switching valve 24 are switched to the middle position. When the first cooler 1 or the second cooler 13 is operated alone, the first switching valve 10 and the second switching valve 24 both point to the operating cooler.

[0025] When the first cooler 1 and the second cooler 13 of the compressor are in normal use, the first nitrogen filling valve 3 on the first gas source pipeline 2 and the second nitrogen filling valve 15 on the second gas source pipeline 14 are closed before the compressor is started, and the first water inlet valve 5, the first water outlet valve 6, the second water inlet valve 17 and the second water outlet valve 18 of the cooling water are opened for normal cooling. When the compressor is stopped for standby, the first water inlet valve 5, the first water outlet valve 6, the second water inlet valve 17 and the second water outlet valve 18 are closed to discharge the cooling water in the first cooler 1 and the second cooler 13.

Close the first water inlet valve 5 and the first water outlet valve 6 of the first cooler 1 to drain the cooling water in the first cooler 1, then open the first nitrogen filling valve 3 on the first gas source pipeline 2 to introduce nitrogen to blow away the accumulated water in the first cooler 1, and close the first sewage valve 7 and the first nitrogen filling valve 3 when the nitrogen discharged from the first sewage outlet 8 has no free moisture. At this time, the first cooler 1 is filled with dry nitrogen, and the first cooler 1 can be kept pressurized for standby use.

[0027] When the cooler 1 has been running for a period of time or the second cooler 13 fails and needs to be switched, open the first exhaust valve 9 on the oil side of the first cooler 1 to exhaust the gas on the oil side of the first cooler 1 and confirm that the first exhaust valve 9 on the oil side of the first cooler 1 is discharging oil; open the first cooling water inlet valve 5 and the first outlet valve 6 of the first cooler 1, slightly open the first oil filling valve 12 of the first cooler 1, and slowly open the first switching valve 10 and the second switching valve 24 to the middle position under the premise of stable oil pressure, so that the first cooler 1 and the second cooler 13 run in parallel for about one hour, and then gradually fully open the first switching valve 10 and The second switching valve 24 is used to put the first cooler 1 into use and the second cooler 13 out of use.
