Why doesn’t the steam generator need inspection and won’t explode?
First of all, the size of the steam generator is very small, the water volume does not exceed 30L, and it is within the national inspection-free product series. Steam generators produced by regular manufacturers have multiple protection systems. Once a problem occurs, the equipment will automatically cut off the power supply.
Product multiple protection system:
① Water shortage protection: The burner is forced to shut down when the equipment is short of water.
② Low water level alarm: Low water level alarm, shut down the burner.
③Overpressure protection: System overpressure alarm and shut down the burner.
④Leakage protection: The system detects a power abnormality and forcibly shuts down the power supply. These protective measures are heavily obstructed, so that if there is a problem, the equipment will not continue to operate and will not explode.
However, as an important special equipment often used in daily life and production, steam generators have many safety problems during use. If we can understand and master the principles of these problems, we can effectively Avoid safety accidents.
1. Steam generator safety valve: The safety valve is one of the most important safety devices of the boiler, which can release and reduce pressure in time when overpressure occurs. During use, the safety valve must be manually discharged or functionally tested regularly to ensure that there will be no problems such as rust and jamming that may cause the safety valve to malfunction.
2. Steam generator water level gauge: The water level gauge of the steam generator is a device that visually displays the water level position in the steam generator. A normal water level higher or lower than the water level gauge is a serious operating error and can easily lead to an accident. Therefore, the water level meter should be flushed regularly and the water level should be closely observed during use.
3. Steam generator pressure gauge: The pressure gauge directly reflects the operating pressure value of the boiler and instructs the operator never to operate at overpressure. Therefore, the pressure gauge requires calibration every six months to ensure sensitivity and reliability.
4. Steam generator sewage device: The sewage device is a device that discharges scale and impurities in the steam generator. It can effectively control the steam generator to prevent scaling and slag accumulation. At the same time, you can often touch the rear pipe of the sewage valve to check whether there is any leakage problem.
5. Normal pressure steam generator: If the normal pressure boiler is installed correctly, there will be no overpressure explosion problem, but the normal pressure boiler must pay attention to anti-freeze in winter. If the pipeline is frozen, it must be manually thawed before use, otherwise the pipeline will explode. It is crucial to block overpressure explosions.
