[0021] A switching power supply 10 is installed inside the housing 2. A three-phase air switch 12 is arranged inside the housing 2. A terminal block 11 is installed inside the housing 2. An inlet solenoid valve relay 15 and an outlet solenoid valve relay 14 are arranged inside the housing 2. A touch screen 16 is installed on the housing 2. A power switch 19, an emergency stop button 17, and a start button 18 are arranged on the housing 2. An inlet pressure gauge 21 is arranged on the housing 2. An air source pressure regulating valve 20 is installed on the housing 2. The touch screen 16 is arranged between the inlet pressure gauge 21 and the power switch 19.
[0022] The Siemens PLC 8 can achieve automatic and precise control, programmable setting of test parameters, adopt advanced control technology to ensure the stability and repeatability during the test process, and can also automatically record test data for easy analysis and report generation.

[0024] This gas durability test platform is designed to simulate the normal working state of a gas pressure regulator and conduct simulations of the opening and closing states of the equipment. Compressed air is selected as the power gas source for this equipment. The compressed gas passes through a gas source triple unit for gas filtration and pressure regulation to provide different inlet pressures that meet the test requirements of the gas pressure regulator. The test inlet pressure range is 0.05 - 1.6 MPa. The compressed air is reduced in pressure to low-pressure gas by the pressure regulator body 1. The valve port of the pressure regulator body 1 is closed, and then the inlet solenoid valve 4 is closed and the outlet solenoid valve 6 is opened. The gas at the rear end of the pressure regulator body 1 is discharged to the atmosphere. Then the valve port of the pressure regulator body 1 is opened again. Each opening and closing is regarded as a cycle. At the same time, the inlet gas speed of the gas source can be adjusted by the inlet gas source speed control valve 3 to avoid impact on the pressure regulator body 1. This equipment is configured with a gas source triple unit, a Siemens PLC 8, an inlet solenoid valve 4, an outlet solenoid valve 6, a touch screen 16, an inlet pressure gauge 21, electrical components and other components, which is convenient for setting equipment parameters and information display and interaction. The test cycle of the equipment can be set to 30,000 times by default according to the standard, or it can also be set manually.
