Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to crude oil water content analysis equipment technical field, specifically speaking is a pipeline type water content analyzer. BACKGROUND
[0002] Crude oil is one of the most important energy resources on earth, and it plays a crucial role in the global economy. Among them, the water content of crude oil is an important indicator, which has an important influence on the production and processing of the oil industry. The water content in crude oil is a very important parameter for the oil industry, and the presence of water will cause a series of problems in the process of oil transportation and storage, for example, water will combine with sulfide and acid in crude oil to generate sulfuric acid and sulfate, accelerating the corrosion of pipelines and storage tanks. In addition, the presence of water in crude oil also affects the separation effect and product quality in the refining process, reducing the efficiency and service life of the refining equipment. Therefore, accurate measurement of the water content in crude oil is of great significance to the production and processing of the oil industry.
[0003] The existing online instrument commonly used to detect the water content of crude oil is a water content analyzer, and its detection method includes capacitance conductivity method, radio frequency method, electromagnetic wave method and electromagnetic wave method. Its principle is to emit electromagnetic waves of different frequencies to the crude oil medium through the sensor probe, and according to the phenomenon that the medium absorbs different electromagnetic wave energy when the water content in the crude oil is different, the water content of the crude oil is measured. However, these water content analyzers have some common problems: due to the design process of the sensing electrode, the measurement accuracy is not high, which is easy to cause measurement error; the sealing structure of the sensor assembly is not ideal, and liquid leakage is easy to occur under high pressure working condition, which has safety hidden danger; the sensor probe is also easy to be corroded by long-term contact with crude oil, affecting the service life. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is to provide a pipeline type water content analyzer with the following structure: a meter head, a sensor assembly and a metal pipeline, the meter head is connected to the outer peripheral wall of the metal pipeline, the sensor assembly is arranged in the metal pipeline and electrically connected with the meter head; the sensor assembly includes an electrode base and a sensing electrode, the sensing electrode is two, symmetrically connected to both ends of the electrode base, and coaxially arranged with the metal pipeline; an insulating coating is coated on the sensing electrode to improve the sensitivity of the signal.
[0006] After adopting the above structure, compared with the prior art, the pipeline type water content analyzer of the utility model has the following advantages:
[0007] The utility model discloses a sensor electrode is coated with insulating coating on, and the signal change of sensor will become more sensitive and stable after the insulation treatment of sensor electrode, this is because the insulation treatment can reduce the charge accumulation and dielectric loss of electrode surface, thereby reducing the fluctuation of dielectric constant, in electromagnetic wave measurement, the slight change of dielectric constant can all lead to the remarkable change of electromagnetic wave signal, and therefore the stability of dielectric constant means that the change of electromagnetic wave signal is more sensitive, thereby improving the sensitivity of measurement, and simultaneously, the stable dielectric constant reduces the error in measurement, thereby improving the measurement precision of water content analyzer.

[0011] As preferred, the support connecting pipe is filled with an insulating and heat-insulating member. The pressure of the crude oil pipeline is high, and the temperature is also relatively high. Arranging the hollow support connecting pipe between the meter head and the metal pipeline and filling the support connecting pipe with the insulating and heat-insulating member can reduce the heat transferred from the metal pipeline to the meter head, avoid the influence of high temperature on the electrical components in the meter head, and reduce the failure rate.

[0024] The utility model discloses a sensor electrode 22 is coated with insulating coating, and the dielectric constant change will become stable after the insulation treatment of sensor electrode 22, this is because the insulation treatment can reduce the charge accumulation and dielectric loss of electrode surface, thereby reducing the fluctuation of dielectric constant, in electromagnetic wave measurement, the slight change of dielectric constant will cause the significant change of electromagnetic wave signal, and therefore the stability of dielectric constant means that the change of electromagnetic wave signal is more sensitive, thereby improving the sensitivity of measurement, at the same time, the stable dielectric constant reduces the error in measurement, thereby improving the measurement precision of water content analyzer.
[0025] In addition, the insulating coating on the sensor electrode 22 can also isolate direct contact with crude oil, preventing the sensor electrode 22 from being contaminated and corroded, and improving its service life.
