What should be noted during the installation process of compressed air booster pump?

A compressed air booster pump is a device that increases the pressure of compressed air again to achieve the desired operating pressure. Compared to high-pressure air compressors, air booster pumps are simpler and more practical. It has many advantages such as small size, high pressure, low noise, easy maintenance, explosion-proof, and low cost. But what should be noted during the installation process of the compressed air booster pump with higher precision?

A compressed air booster pump is a device that increases the pressure of compressed air again to achieve the desired operating pressure. Compared to high-pressure air compressors, air booster pumps are simpler and more practical. It has many advantages such as small size, high pressure, low noise, easy maintenance, explosion-proof, and low cost. But its precision is higher, and it requires higher requirements for the usage location and working conditions. Below, the air booster pump editor will give you a brief explanation.

Requirements for installation site:

Although compressed air booster pumps are small in size, they cannot be easily placed in any location. It is necessary to plan ahead and avoid damp, direct sunlight, high dust, and outdoor places. To prevent frequent malfunctions of the compressed air booster pump in the future.

1. Using a good open space is beneficial for operation, maintenance, heat dissipation, and ventilation.

2. In a dry and dust-free environment, compressed air booster pumps have self-priming function. If the site is too humid or has too much dust, the booster pump will suck in the moisture and dust near the inside of the booster pump. Long term use will form water and dust accumulation in the booster pump cylinder, causing damage to the sealing ring of the booster pump and even scratching the cylinder.

3. Environmental temperature: The working environment temperature should not be lower than 0 degrees and higher than 40 degrees. When the flow rate of compressed air booster pump is high during the boosting process, it will cause a temperature drop (the effect of gas flow). At this time, if the ambient temperature is too low, ice will form and block the process channel. If the ambient temperature is too high, water accumulation and other problems will occur.

Configuration of pipeline accessories for compressed air booster pump

1. The pipeline should be higher than the operating pressure, and the compressed air booster pump is pressurized proportionally. For example, a double booster pump increases the existing air source pressure by two times or even higher. The higher the pressure, the more dangerous the gas is. When selecting pipelines, it is necessary to have a higher boost pressure than the booster pump, rather than using pressure.

2. Explosion prevention measures: When using high pressure, it is necessary to prevent explosions caused by pipeline aging and other factors in the later stage. A relief valve must be installed to prevent explosions caused by high gas pressure.

3. Install a gas storage tank. During the pressurization process of the compressed air booster pump, the gas will form pulses one by one, which will impact the subsequent equipment. Adding the gas storage tank can effectively offset the pulses. Another advantage is that it can effectively reduce the impact of instantaneous gas consumption and ensure stable output.
