[0023] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] The present utility model relates to a power-off protection device for an electrolytic cell, as Figure 1 - Figure 2 shown, which includes a main power supply 2 connected to the electrolytic cell 4, an emergency power supply 3 connected in parallel with the electrolytic cell 4, a control module 6 connected between the main power supply 2 and the electrolytic cell 4, and a branch circuit 5 formed by connecting a relay 1, the emergency power supply 3, and a grounding resistor 7 in series;
[0025] In this embodiment, the input voltage of the main power supply 2 is: AC 220 - 380V, the output voltage is: DC 24V, and the output current is: 5A, which is used to provide a stable power supply for the normal operation of the electrolytic cell 4. The emergency power supply 3 is a battery pack, an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), or other backup power supply systems, which is used to provide the necessary power for the relay 1 and the control module 6 when the main power supply 2 is turned off, so as to ensure that the device can operate normally in an emergency. In this embodiment, the capacity of the emergency power supply 3 is 12V 7Ah.
[0026] Further, the control module 6 is a programmable logic controller (PLC), which is internally provided with a power supply monitoring circuit for monitoring the state of the main power supply 2 and sending a control signal to the relay 1 when a power supply abnormality is detected. In this embodiment, the input signal of the control module 6 is: 0 - 10V DC, the output signal is: 4 - 20mA, the working voltage is: DC 24V, and the power supply monitoring circuit therein is a relatively mature existing technology and has been disclosed in the prior art with the publication number: CN205787755U.
[0027] Further, the relay 1 is the core component of this device, which is used to quickly switch the on-off state of the emergency circuit when an abnormality of the main power supply 2 is detected. In this embodiment, the rated voltage of the relay 1 is: DC 24V, and the rated current is: 10A.
[0028] Working principle: During normal operation, the main power supply 2 provides the working power supply for the electrolytic cell 4. The relay 1 is in the off state, the branch circuit 5 is not conducting, and the control module 6 monitors the main power supply 2. When the main power supply 2 is emergently shut down, after detecting the change in the power supply state, the control module 6 immediately starts the emergency response program and sends a control signal to the relay 1, instructing it to switch to the emergency state. After receiving the control signal, the relay 1 immediately closes, enabling the emergency power supply 3 to supply power to the relay 1. After the relay 1 closes, the branch circuit 5 conducts, and the residual charge in the electrolytic cell 4 flows through the branch circuit 5 to the set discharge circuit or load to release the residual charge.
[0029] In summary, the utility model can ensure that the residual charge in the electrolytic cell 4 can be effectively released in the case of an emergency shutdown of the main power supply 2, thereby ensuring the safe operation of the electrolytic cell 4 and extending its service life.
[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
