How to determine the air supply plan for factory air compressors is determined after comprehensive consideration and comparison of technical and economic conditions based on factors such as factory scale, gas point distribution, gas supply pressure level, and compressed air quality required to be supplied. There are generally 6 types of gas supply plans:
1. Set up regional compressed air stations for gas supply. When the factory is large in scale, the compressed air consumption is large and the main users are relatively dispersed, in order to reduce the pressure loss of the pipeline network and ensure the use of key gas, this plan is often used. There should be pipelines connecting the regional station buildings to achieve the purpose of mutual load adjustment and mutual backup.
2. Set up several compressed air stations for gas supply. This plan is mainly used for small and medium-sized factories and large factories with relatively concentrated gas consumption.
3. On-site gas supply plan. When the factory gas consumption is not large and the gas consumption points are few and dispersed, it can be considered to use a small air compressor unit to be placed near the starting point.
4. A combination of centralized and decentralized gas supply plans. In some large and medium-sized factories, the main compressed air consumption is relatively concentrated, and the secondary is relatively dispersed. Especially at night when the gas consumption is less, this solution is suitable.
5. When the factory needs to supply different compressed air, and the low-pressure gas consumption is large, it should consider using gas supply systems with different pressure levels and configuring air compressors with different pressures. To reduce the energy waste caused by pressure reduction, but the gas supply pressure level should generally not exceed two, so as to reduce the initial equipment investment.
6. When some gas consumption points in the factory need to supply higher quality compressed air, it can be considered to use a single oil-free lubricated ten air compressor. It can also be considered to use the compressed air supplied centrally, and then process some post-processing equipment for gas supply. The specific method to be adopted should be determined after comprehensive economic comparison, depending on the specific gas consumption and the location of the gas consumption point.
In summary, the determination of the gas supply plan is an issue that requires comprehensive consideration, involving the user's initial investment, the management of the production process, and especially for users who expand production and increase the amount of compressed air consumption, it should be combined with the layout of the original compressed air supply system. There is one thing that Fusheng Air Compressor should remind its users: if an oil-injected screw air compressor is used, it does not require a special air compressor foundation and station building, nor does it require a full-time operator to monitor it like a piston air compressor. Therefore, it is recommended that you try to avoid using centralized air supply and the customary air supply plan of transporting air over long distances, so as to achieve the goal of saving energy and investment while ensuring air supply requirements.
