Explosion-proof hydrothermal digestion tanks are commonly used equipment in laboratories, mainly for sample digestion under high temperature and high pressure conditions. However, during use, hydrothermal digestion tanks may have various problems that affect their normal operation and the effectiveness of the digestion. Therefore, it is critical to identify and solve these problems. In this article, we will introduce the steps to identify and solve common problems with explosion-proof hydrothermal digestion tanks to help users better maintain and use the equipment.
Ⅰ. Identify common problems
Explosion-proof hydrothermal anabolism tank in the use of a variety of problems that may occur in the process, the common ones include:
1. Slow heating speed or inability to heat;
2. Abnormal pressure, such as the pressure rises too quickly or fails to reach the preset value;
3. Leakage or poor sealing of the ablation tank;
4. Corrosion or damage to the inner wall of the ablation tank;
5. Control system failure, such as inaccurate temperature or pressure display.
Ⅱ. Problem Troubleshooting and Solution
For different problems, it is necessary to take appropriate troubleshooting and solution measures. The following are specific steps:
1. Heating problems:
Check whether the power connection is normal, make sure the equipment is connected to the power supply;
Check whether the heating element is damaged, and replace it in time if it is damaged;
Clean the dust and dirt on the heating element and the bottom of the ablation tank to improve the heating efficiency.
2. Pressure problem:
Check whether the pressure sensor and control system are working properly;
Ensure the sealing of the ablation tank is good, check whether the sealing gasket and fastening screws are tight;
Adjust the pressure control parameters to ensure that the ablation is carried out within the appropriate range.
3. Leakage problems:
Check whether the sealing gasket and O-ring of the ablation tank are intact, and replace them promptly if they are damaged;
Ensure that the screws of the ablation tank have been tightened to avoid leakage;
In the process of using, pay attention to observe the sealing condition of the ablation tank, find out the problem and deal with it in time.
4. Corrosion and damage problems:
Clean the inner wall of the ablation tank regularly to avoid corrosion caused by sample residue;
For the corrosion or damage that has occurred in the ablation tank, contact the manufacturer in time for repair or replacement;
In the process of use, pay attention to avoid the use of corrosive samples or ablating agents, so as not to cause damage to the ablating tank.
5. Control system problems:
Check whether the sensors and connecting wires of the control system are normal;
Calibrate the control system to ensure that the temperature and pressure display are accurate;
If the control system failure is serious, it is recommended to contact professional maintenance personnel for treatment.
Ⅲ. Preventive Measures
In addition to the above mentioned troubleshooting and solution measures, in order to prevent the occurrence of common problems of explosion-proof hydrothermal digestion tank, the following measures can also be taken:
1. Regularly maintain and repair the equipment, such as cleaning the ablation tank and replacing the sealing gasket;
2. Follow the instructions for use of the equipment to ensure correct operation;
3. pay attention to the observation of the operating status of the equipment, timely detection and treatment of problems;
4. carry out regular inspections and maintenance of the equipment to ensure that it is in good working condition.
Identifying and solving the common problems of explosion-proof hydrothermal anabolism tank is crucial to guarantee the normal operation of the equipment and the effect of anabolism. By adopting correct troubleshooting and solution measures as well as preventive measures, problems encountered during the use of the equipment can be effectively avoided and solved, and the efficiency of the laboratory can be improved.
