What are common operational issues and troubleshooting methods?
Typical issues in chemical emulsification and solutions include:
Insufficient Emulsification/Dispersion: Caused by worn rotor blades, low speed, or incompatible shear head type. Solution: Replace worn parts, increase speed (within limits), or switch to a toothed shear head for particle breakdown.
Equipment Corrosion: Caused by incompatible material selection or residual corrosive materials. Solution: Replace contact parts with corrosion-resistant alloys (Hastelloy, titanium) and optimize cleaning procedures.
Motor Overheating: Caused by overload, poor ventilation, or friction from misaligned rotor-stator. Solution: Reduce load, clean cooling vents, realign rotor-stator, or replace worn bearings.
Material Leakage: Caused by degraded seals or excessive pressure. Solution: Replace seals with chemical-resistant materials (PTFE, Viton) and release excess pressure during operation.
Flammable Fume Accumulation: Caused by inadequate ventilation or vacuum system leaks. Solution: Improve ventilation, repair vacuum leaks, and stop operation if fume levels exceed safety limits.
