A water sump 106 is provided below the cooler 104, and the water sump 106 is connected to a floor drain through a drainage pipeline 107, and a U-shaped water seal section is provided in a section of the drainage pipeline 107.

[0004] During the operation of the nuclear-grade air handling unit 100, a large amount of condensed water is generated at the cooler 104 in the box body 101, and a drainage pipeline 107 with a U-shaped water seal is led out from the water sump 106 to the floor drain of the room. For the standby nuclear-grade air handling unit 100, no chilled water flows through the cooler 104, and no condensed water is generated on the surface of the cooler 104. If the weather is hot and dry, the liquid level of the U-shaped water seal in the drainage pipeline 107 drops rapidly. At this time, the water seal is damaged, and the drainage pipeline 107 forms a negative pressure to suck air into the box body 101. When the standby nuclear-grade air handling unit 100 is started again, due to the negative pressure situation, the water sump 106 below the cooler 104 cannot drain water, causing the water sump 106 to overflow and start to flood the box body 101, threatening the safe operation of the fan 102 of the nuclear-grade air handling unit 100.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 2 , the present utility model shows a nuclear-grade air handling unit 100, which includes a box body 101, and components such as a fan 102, an electric heater 103, a cooler 104, a filter 105, etc. arranged in the box body 101. A water accumulation tray 106 is provided below the cooler 104. The water accumulation tray 106 is connected to a floor drain through a nuclear-grade air handling unit drainage pipeline 107. The nuclear-grade air handling unit drainage pipeline 107 has a U-shaped water seal section, and a nuclear-grade air handling unit drainage pipeline blocking negative pressure protection device 10 is provided at the end (lower end) of the nuclear-grade air handling unit drainage pipeline 107. The nuclear-grade air handling unit drainage pipeline 107 can also be defined as "drainage pipeline 107".

[0029] As Figures 2 to 5 shown, in some embodiments, the nuclear-grade air handling unit drainage pipeline blocking negative pressure protection device 10 includes a sleeve 11 and a protection pipe 12.

[0036] In some embodiments, the sleeve 11 is a flexible pipe, for example, a plastic hose can be used.

[0037] Such as Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, the lower end of the protective pipe 12 is inclined. The lower end of the protective pipe 12 has a first position 12a and a second position 12b. The first position 12a is above the second position 12b in terms of horizontal height. The mounting seat 14 is provided at the first position 12a, that is, the mounting seat 14 is installed at a high point position.

[0038] In some embodiments, the outer diameter of the protective pipe 12 is 40 mm, and the inner diameter of the nuclear-grade air handling unit drainage pipeline 107 is approximately 50 mm. Of course, the structural dimensions of the protective pipe 12 can be selected and set according to actual needs, and no specific limitations are made here.

[0039] In some embodiments, the protective pipe 12 is a metal pipe, such as, but not limited to, stainless steel pipe, aluminum alloy pipe, etc.

[0040] In some embodiments, the protective pipe 12 is a plastic pipe. For example, the protective pipe 12 can be made of hard insulating materials, such as phenolic plastic, polyurethane plastic, epoxy plastic, unsaturated polyester plastic, furan plastic, silicone resin, allyl resin, etc. and their modified resins as the matrix.

[0041] In some embodiments, the counterweight 16 is a spherical structure.

[0042] In some embodiments, the mass of the counterweight 16 is 3 grams. Of course, the structure, size, and weight of the counterweight 16 can be selected and set according to actual needs, and no specific limitations are made here.
