Troubleshooting method of parallel electric heating cables during storage and transportation of chemicals

As for the effect of the electric heating system on the stable operation of the warehouse and the transportation of chemicals, the emergency management aims to restore the electric heating system as soon as possible when the electric heating system fails, so as to avoid affecting the entry and exit of materials.

With regard to the effect of the electric heating system on the stable operation of the warehouse and the transportation of chemicals, emergency management is aimed at restoring the electric heating system as soon as possible when the electric heating system fails to avoid affecting the entry and exit of materials.

Most of the faults of parallel electric heating cables are caused by damage to the resistance wire. At this time, the electric heating cables can still work as a whole. Reasonable to assess the presence of a malfunction by analyzing the change in operating current. to find the location of the malfunction. The faults of consecutive electric heating cables mainly include shutdown errors, ground short circuit, and interfacial short circuits. There are three main search methods.

Wire search method. Disconnect the electric heating cable from the middle, and then measure the resistance to the ground or between phases from the shutdown, determine that the place of the damage is in the area before and after the break, and then disconnect the damage area from the middle after the area range is determined, and so on until the fault is confirmed. Within 20 cm, this method will cause greater damage to the electric heating cable.

Disable search method. It is mainly used to detect a shutdown fault, cut the middle insulation layer of the electric heating cable, ground one end, measure the on-off state of the heating cable to the ground with a multimeter, determine whether the fault point is in the first half or the second half, and then connect the cable after confirmation. Isolation in the middle of the faulty segment is cut, And so on until the fault is found.

Cable defect detection method. This method can find various faults of electric heating cables. Using the similarity between the structure of the electric heating cable and the structure of the cable, use the cable fault detector to determine the range of the fault point, and then use various fixed-point methods, such as the acoustic measurement method and the audio method, to accurately determine the point, improve the trouble finding efficiency, and reduce the damage of the electric heating cable. Should be used first when searching for faults.

Electrical heating installation precautions

Electric heating cable is a heating method that uses insulation resistance or resistance heating wire to create a temperature after power supply. It can automatically adjust the output temperature and reasonably maintain the process temperature requirements to keep warm, raise the temperature and protect the heating equipment from freezing. The insulation and antifreeze effect of the container is very good.

Which electric heating should be chosen for the main pipeline transport of heavy oil

Transport of heavy oil through the pipeline over long distances and long-term retention in the pipeline will result in a drop in temperature due to heat dissipation and increased viscosity, which will cause the pipeline to be blocked by freezing or condensation-related accidents. Electric heating is widely used as effective insulation of pipelines and anti-freeze protection.

Which electric heating cable should be considered for a 4 km pipeline

According to the statistics of the Hydrometeorological Center, the average daily minimum temperature at the location of the CNPC tank farm is 5 ° C, and the average daily maximum temperature is 14 ° C. Since the freezing point of the PX is about 15 °C, the supply pipeline needs heat preservation and heating. The oil depot has been in operation for many years without a stable source of steam, therefore, this project is considering the use of electric heating technology.

Application of outdoor electric heating cable in oil main pipelines with high paraffin content

Long-distance crude oil pipelines with a high paraffin content with freezing temperatures above 50 °C. According to the requirements of the production plan of the plant, the volume of oil transportation through the pipeline is 150 thousand rubles. Tons per year, maximum-200 thousand. Tons per year.. According to the thermodynamic analysis of the pipeline, the initial supply temperature of the pipeline is 80 ° C (TN), and the temperature of the end entering the tank is 60 ° C (Tu). Since the transportation temperature needs to be adjusted according to the time of year, it sometimes needs to be transported by heat.

What heating product to choose for main infusion pipelines

In petrochemical engineering, trunk infusion pipelines are the lifeblood of the factories. The temperature in the northern region is too low in winter and the pipeline needs to be insulated to compensate for the heat loss due to the low temperature in winter to ensure the normal operation of the pipeline.

The role of leather tracer cables in the insulation of asphalt main pipelines

The toughness of the asphalt is greatly affected by the temperature. When the temperature decreases, the toughness of the asphalt increases, and the drop in resistance of the asphalt during pipeline transportation increases; when the temperature falls below the freezing point, the asphalt solidifies, causing the pipeline to clog and the conveyor belt to come to trouble. Therefore, electric heating and heat preservation during the transportation of asphalt are very important.
