In industrial production, the boiler water softening processor is a crucial device for ensuring water supply safety and production stability. However, malfunctions often occur during the operation of this equipment. To help enterprises solve these problems, senior industry experts have summarized and released a series of solutions.
Key Points for Solving Water Quality Problems
Regarding the excessive hardness of softened water, the resin should be regularly inspected. When it is severely aged or damaged, it should be replaced in a timely manner. For contaminated resin, treatment should be carried out according to the type of contamination. For example, in case of iron – ion contamination, the resin can be soaked in a 10% – 15% hydrochloric acid solution for 5 – 8 hours and then rinsed. The dosage and quality of the regenerant should be strictly controlled according to the equipment requirements, with the concentration maintained at 5% – 10%. The influent water quality should be monitored in real – time, and when it exceeds the standard, a pretreatment device should be added. If the softened water contains impurities, the pretreatment filter should be back – washed 1 – 2 times a week. The damaged filter screen should be replaced in a timely manner, and a precision filter should be installed at the outlet of the resin tank.
Methods for Coping with Abnormal Pressure
If the operating pressure of the equipment is too high, the pipeline can be cleaned chemically or physically, and a filter can be installed at the inlet to prevent blockages. When there are valve malfunctions, check the opening status, and repair or replace the jammed valve cores and damaged seals in a timely manner. After repair, test the tightness and flexibility. If the pressure is too low, conduct a comprehensive overhaul of the water pump. Repair or replace the worn impeller, and replace the motor with an appropriate one if its power is insufficient. Regularly maintain the pump and replace the seals. Use pressure – testing equipment to check for pipeline leakage points. For small leaks, use leak – repair glue, and for large leaks, repair by welding and then retest.
Measures for Handling Regeneration System Malfunctions
When the salt level in the salt tank is lower than one – third, add qualified salt to avoid impurities from mixing in. Regularly measure the brine concentration with a hydrometer, maintain it at 5% – 10%, and clean the salt tank regularly. If the brine delivery pipeline is blocked, unclog it with a high – pressure water gun, compressed air, or chemical cleaning. Repair or replace the salt water pump in a timely manner if it malfunctions. In case of regeneration control malfunctions, calibrate the controller parameters, adjust the regeneration cycle and time according to the actual water consumption and water quality, repair or replace the malfunctioning sensor and calibrate it, and check the connection lines.
Ways to Repair Equipment – related Malfunctions
If the equipment leaks, tighten the bolts and nuts at the loose pipeline connection parts, replace the aging gaskets, and sealant can be applied. For slight corrosion of the tank body, repair it with anti – corrosion paint, and replace the tank if the corrosion is severe. Replace the damaged valve seals or the valve body in a timely manner and test the tightness. If there are abnormal noises and vibrations in the equipment, check components such as motors and water pumps, address problems such as worn bearings and unbalanced impellers, reinforce the installation foundation, and install shock – absorbing pads at the bottom. When dealing with electrical malfunctions, replace the aging and damaged components, check and repair the wiring problems. For control system malfunctions, reset it first. If it doesn’t work, contact professional personnel for repair. These solutions provide strong guidance for industrial enterprises to maintain their equipment, help improve the operational stability of the equipment, ensure the safety of industrial production water supply, and promote the efficient and safe development of the industry.
