Low-dew-point production workshops typically rely on rotary adsorption dehumidifiers for air treatment. To achieve optimal dehumidification, manufacturers often use two-stage rotary adsorption systems in series. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, in order to achieve the technical effect of "meeting the requirements of low dew point production workshops for constant temperature control of the environment and achieving the goal of energy saving and consumption reduction", the structure and function of an energy-saving low dew point air supply rotary dehumidification constant temperature unit are described in detail below;

[0021] An energy-saving low dew point air supply rotary dehumidification constant temperature unit includes a dual-rotor dehumidification system and a refrigeration system. The dual-rotor dehumidification system includes a fresh air inlet 1, a fresh air valve 2, a first filter 3, a first surface cooler 4, an evaporator 5, a first rotor 8, a processing fan 10, a second filter 11, a second surface cooler 12, a second rotor 9, a second condenser 13 and a supply air valve 29 connected in sequence along the fresh air flow direction, and enters a production workshop 30;

[0022] The refrigeration system includes a first circuit and a second circuit. When the fresh air passes through the first circuit, it passes through the compressor 6, the first flow regulating valve 21, the first condenser 7, the electronic expansion valve 23 and the evaporator 5 in sequence. When the fresh air passes through the second circuit, it passes through the compressor 6, the second flow regulating valve 22, the second condenser 13, the electronic expansion valve 23 and the evaporator 5 in sequence.

[0023] During operation, the fresh air passes through the first surface cooler 4 and the evaporator 5 for cooling and dehumidification, then passes through the first rotor 8 for dehumidification before passing through the second surface cooler 12 for cooling and dehumidification, and then passes through the second rotor 9 for further dehumidification to the set low humidity requirement. The compressor 6 of the refrigeration system transfers part of the heat recovered by the evaporator 5 to the second condenser 13, which is used to heat the low-humidity air after dehumidification by the second rotor 9. Therefore, the energy required for heating after dehumidification by the second rotor 9 utilizes the heat recovered by the second condenser 13 of the refrigeration system, which greatly reduces energy consumption compared with traditional commonly used electric heating.

[0024] The first rotor 8 includes a first treatment zone 81 and a second regeneration zone 82, and the second rotor 9 includes a second treatment zone 91, a cooling zone 92 and a first regeneration zone 93;

[0025] A regeneration branch 14 is provided between the second surface cooler 12 and the second rotor 9, and the regeneration branch 14 sequentially connects the cooling zone 92, the first regeneration heater 15, the first regeneration zone 93, the second regeneration heater 16, the second regeneration zone 82, the regeneration fan 17 and the exhaust outlet 18 along the fresh air flow direction;

[0026] A return air port is provided between the first rotor 8 and the processing fan 10, and the return air port is connected to the production workshop 30 through a return air duct 31, and a return air valve 32 is provided on the return air duct 31;

[0027] The evaporator 5 is provided between the first surface cooler 4 and the first rotor 8, and the second condenser 13 is provided after the second rotor 9;

[0028] The compressor 6 is a DC variable frequency compressor; through the stepless adjustment of the capacity of the compressor 6, the refrigeration and dehumidification capacity of the refrigeration system can be adjusted at any time to ensure that the moisture content is stable regardless of how the outdoor climate parameters change;

[0029] The first condenser 7 is a water-cooled condenser;

[0030] The first flow regulating valve 21 and the second flow regulating valve 22 are respectively provided before the first condenser 7 and the second condenser 13, and are used to control and distribute the refrigerant flow of the first circuit and the second circuit;

[0031] By adjusting the opening of the first flow regulating valve 21 and the second flow regulating valve 22, the refrigerant flow of the second condenser 13 can be controlled while ensuring stable operation of the refrigeration system, thereby controlling the temperature of the low-humidity air entering the production workshop 30 and ensuring the low humidity and constant temperature requirements of the production workshop 30.

[0032] This document uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The above examples are only intended to help understand the method and core concept of the present invention. At the same time, those skilled in the art will find that the specific implementation methods and application scopes may vary based on the concept of the present invention. In summary, the contents of this specification should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
