[0052] The multi-flow automatic standard calibration system of the gas analyzer has the following beneficial effects: when the multi-flow automatic standard calibration system of the gas analyzer is in normal operation, the on-off switch 301a of the gas inlet channel 301 connected to the sample gas collection module is opened by the control unit 50, and the on-off switches of the other gas inlet channels are closed, so that the sample gas (ambient air) collected by the sample gas collection module enters the dehumidification module 40 through the first gas outlet pipeline 3021 and is dehumidified, and then enters the gas analyzer 100 through the second gas inlet pipeline 401 for detection of ambient air; when the gas analyzer needs to be calibrated, the gas inlet channel connected to the sample gas collection module is closed by the control unit 50, the gas inlet channel connected to the standard gas bottle containing standard gas of a to-be-detected concentration is opened, so that the standard gas of the concentration enters the dehumidification module 40 through the first gas outlet pipeline 3021 and is dehumidified, and then enters the gas analyzer 100 through the second gas outlet pipeline 401 for calibration; after the calibration of the standard gas of the concentration is completed, the gas inlet channel connected to the standard gas bottle containing the standard gas of the concentration is closed, and the gas inlet channel connected to the standard gas bottle containing standard gas of another concentration is opened, and so on, so that the gas analyzer 100 is calibrated with standard gas of different concentrations; after the calibration is completed, the gas inlet channels connected to the standard gas bottles are closed by the control unit 50, the gas inlet channel connected to the sample gas collection module is opened, and the normal detection of ambient air is continued.

[0053] Further, the inlet Figure 1 As shown, in the present embodiment, the first outlet gas pipeline 3021 is further provided with a mass flow controller 60.

The gas analyzer quantitatively extracts gas when performing sampling detection or standard calibration, so when the flow of sample gas or standard gas to the gas analyzer 100 is too much, the excess sample gas or standard gas will be discharged from the exhaust pipeline 402. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the second flow meter 4021 is a float flow meter

[0055] Further, as Figure 1 As shown, in the present embodiment, the dehumidification module 40 includes a nanometer tube 41 and a zero gas generating unit capable of generating pure and dry air (zero gas), and the zero gas generating unit is connected to one end of the nanometer tube 41 through a zero gas pipeline 420. When dehumidifying, the moisture in the sample gas and the standard gas is removed based on the humidity difference between the inside and outside of the nanometer tube 41. Specifically, the nanometer tube includes a sample gas path and a purge gas path, and the purge gas path is coaxially arranged with the sample gas path, and the sample gas path is sleeved inside the purge gas path, wherein the sample gas path is used to pass the atmospheric sample gas or standard gas to the gas analyzer, and when the atmospheric sample gas or standard gas passes through the sample gas path of the nanometer tube, the moisture in the atmospheric sample gas or standard gas will penetrate into the purge gas path, the zero gas pipeline 420 is connected to one end of the purge gas path of the nanometer tube 41, and the pure and dry air generated by the zero gas generating unit is introduced into the purge gas path through the zero gas pipeline 420, so that the moisture penetrated into the purge gas path is blown out from the other end of the purge gas path, thereby realizing the dehumidification and drying of the atmospheric sample gas or standard gas. Preferably, in order to improve the dehumidification effect, the flow direction of the zero gas (pure and dry air) in the purge gas path is opposite to the flow direction of the sample gas in the sample gas path.

[0056] Further, as Figure 1As shown, in the embodiment, the zero air generating unit comprises an air compressor (not shown in the figure), a first filter 421, a zero air generator 422, a pressure regulating valve 423 and a first flow meter 424. Specifically, the air compressor is connected with the air inlet end of the zero air pipeline 420, the first filter 421, the zero air generator 422, the pressure regulating valve 423 and the first flow meter 424 are all arranged on the zero air pipeline 420, the first filter 421 is located between the air compressor and the zero air generator 422, and the pressure regulating valve 423 and the first flow meter 424 are located behind the zero air generator 422. During operation, as shown, Figure 1 As shown, the air compressor first passes the compressed air into the first filter 421 for preliminary dehumidification and impurity removal, and then passes the compressed air into the zero air generator 422 for professional water removal and dust removal, so as to generate pure and dry air, and then passes the air into the nanometer pipeline 41 through the pressure regulating valve 423 and the first flow meter 424. Through the arrangement of the pressure regulating valve 423 and the first flow meter 424, the pressure and flow of the zero air passing into the nanometer pipeline can be adjusted. Specifically, in the embodiment, the first flow meter 424 is a float flow meter.

[0057] Further, as shown, Figure 1 In the embodiment, the sample gas collecting module comprises a sample gas collecting pipeline 11 and a sample gas inlet pipeline 12. The first end of the sample gas collecting pipeline 11 is used for collecting sample gas, i.e. ambient air. The second end of the sample gas collecting pipeline 11 is connected with the first end of the sample gas inlet pipeline 12. The second end of the sample gas inlet pipeline 12 is connected with an air inlet channel 301 of the multi-channel switching valve 30. Specifically, in the embodiment, a water-blocking filter 110 is arranged at the first end of the sample gas collecting pipeline 11.

[0058] Further, considering that the first end of the sample gas collection pipe 11 is usually located on the sampling tower, the sample gas collected by the first end of the sample gas collection pipe 11 has a long path to the gas analyzer 100, and the gas replacement is slow, therefore, in order to accelerate the time of gas replacement and improve the detection efficiency, preferably, a gas extraction pipeline 101 is arranged on the gas analyzer 100, one end of the gas extraction pipeline 101 is connected with the gas analyzer 100, the other end of the gas extraction pipeline 101 is externally exhausted, and a gas extraction pump 1010 is arranged on the gas extraction pipeline 101; correspondingly, the second end of the sample gas collection pipe 11 is connected with the sample gas inlet pipe 12 through a three-way joint 13, that is, the second end of the sample gas collection pipe 11 is connected with the gas inlet port of the three-way joint 13, the first end of the sample gas inlet pipe 12 is connected with the first gas outlet port of the three-way joint 13, and the second gas outlet port of the three-way joint 13 is connected with the gas extraction pipeline 101 through the exhaust pipeline 14. Through this structural design, when sampling and detection are performed, the sample gas is provided with a suction force by the gas extraction pump 1010, the flow speed is accelerated, the collected sample gas quickly reaches the position of the three-way joint 13, then part of the sample gas is exhausted outward through the exhaust pipeline 14 and the gas extraction pipeline, and the other part of the sample gas flows downward through the multi-channel switching valve 30, the first gas outlet pipeline 3021, the mass flow controller 60, the nanometer pipeline 41 and the second gas outlet pipeline 401 to enter the gas analyzer 100 for detection.

[0059] Further, in order to limit the gas flow passing through the exhaust pipeline 14, prevent too much sample gas flowing to the exhaust pipeline 14 from the three-way joint 13, and cause too little sample gas flowing to the gas analyzer, preferably, as shown in Figure 1 in the embodiment, a second filter 141 and a flow limiting hole 142 are sequentially arranged on the exhaust pipeline 14, that is, the second filter 141 is located upstream of the flow limiting hole 142. Through this structural design, the flow limiting hole 142 can accurately limit the flow of gas passing through, thereby accurately controlling the flow of sample gas flowing to the exhaust pipeline 14, and preventing most of the sample gas reaching the three-way joint 13 from being exhausted from the exhaust pipeline 14. In addition, the second filter 141 is arranged upstream of the flow limiting hole 142, which can make the gas pass through the second filter 141 first to remove the water and particles in the gas, and then exhaust through the flow limiting hole 142, thereby preventing the water and particles in the gas from causing the flow limiting hole to be blocked.

[0060] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 in the embodiment, five standard gas cylinders are arranged, the five standard gas cylinders are filled with standard gas with different concentrations, and eight gas inlet channels 301 are arranged on the multi-channel switching valve 30. Of course, it should be noted that in other optional embodiments, the number of standard gas cylinders and the number of gas inlet channels arranged on the multi-channel switching valve can also be set to any number according to requirements.

[0061] In summary, the multi-flow automatic pass-through standard calibration system of the gas analyzer can realize automatic switching between sample gas and multiple different standard gas concentrations, thereby realizing automatic pass-through standard calibration and sampling detection, being flexible in configuration, simple and easy to operate, greatly avoiding human intervention, saving labor cost, and being high in calibration efficiency.
