Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a detection device, in particular to a radiation leakage detection device for a heat exchanger. Background Art
[0002] Heat exchangers are usually installed in gas pipelines to prevent the low temperature of the gas after pressure regulation from affecting the use of end users. Heat exchangers in gas pipelines are generally equipped with gas passages and liquid passages. When the gas flows through the gas passage, the temperature can be increased by heat exchange with the hot water in the liquid passage. This type of heat exchanger is constructed by welding plates and pipes. Once an internal leak occurs, the high-pressure gas in the gas passage will enter the liquid passage, which not only affects normal use, but also creates safety hazards. Because the pipes and welding points are inside the heat exchanger shell, it is very difficult to detect leaks in the heat exchanger. At present, there is no device or equipment specifically for leak detection of heat exchangers in this field. Utility Model Content

After the gas detector detects the gas signal, it can be determined that a leak has occurred in the heat exchanger, and countermeasures can be taken in time, which solves the problem that the existing technology cannot detect leaks in the heat exchanger, thereby improving safety and reliability.
[0009] The following is a further detailed description of a leakage detection device for a heat exchanger of the utility model in conjunction with the specific embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0014] The above arrangement constitutes a leakage detection device for a heat exchanger with a simple structure, low cost, convenient use, safety, reliability and strong practicality. In practical applications, the utility model is installed on the detection interface corresponding to the heat exchanger 100 through the second flange 14. When the heat exchanger 100 does not leak, the low-pressure water in the liquid passage of the heat exchanger enters the buffer tank 1. At this time, because the force of the water pressure on the sealing plate 33 is less than the force of the spring 36, the sealing ring 331 on the sealing plate 33 will be tightly attached to the sealing protrusion 312, so that the automatic exhaust component 3 is in a closed state, and the gas detector cannot detect the gas signal; when the heat exchanger 100 leaks, the gas in the gas passage will be The high-pressure gas will enter the buffer tank 1 through the liquid passage.
