Description

  The present invention relates to an electric dust collector that collects dust particles contained in a dust-containing gas.

  Spark discharge may occur during operation of the electrostatic precipitator, but if the material deposited in the precipitator is flammable, the deposit will ignite by spark discharge and the inside of the electrostatic precipitator The temperature may rise.

  Conventionally, there has been a method of controlling a high voltage output that does not sustain this spark discharge (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

In FIG. 1, two dust collection units 1A and 1B are arranged up and down, and equipped with cleaning nozzles 2A and 2B on the upstream side and the downstream side, respectively. There is a casing 3 so as to surround them, and the casing 3 has an opening so that the wind passes through the dust collecting units 1A and 1B. There are closing means 4A, 4B for closing the opening. In the present embodiment, the closing means 4A and 4B are dampers. There is a blower fan 5 on the downstream side, and by operating it, dust-containing gas flows into the dust collection units 1A and 1B. Inside the casing 3 are provided thermocouples as temperature sensing means 6A and 6B and smoke detectors as smoke sensing means 7A and 7B. It is desirable that the set temperature is 100 to 150 ° C. In addition, a lamp as a display means 8 is provided on the upper part of the electric dust collector. The display means is not limited to the upper part of the electric dust collector and may be installed anywhere. And it is comprised by the high voltage generator 9 which supplies a high voltage to dust collection unit 1A, 1B, and the controller 10 which controls performing a high voltage and a temperature fall means.

In the dust collection portion 22, a plurality of metal load electrode plates 25 and metal ground electrode plates 24B are alternately arranged, and the load electrode plates 25 and the ground electrode plates 24B are not electrically connected. A high voltage is applied to the discharge electrode plate 23 and the load electrode plate 25 from a high voltage generator. The grounding plates 24A and 24B of the charging unit 21 and the dust collection unit 22 are connected to the ground.

  The high voltage causes air breakdown between the discharge electrode plate 23 and the load electrode plate 25 and the ground electrode plate 24 of the charging unit 21 and the dust collection unit 22, and spark discharge may occur between the electrode plates.

  When combustible substances are accumulated in the electrostatic precipitator, spark discharge occurs, the deposit ignites and the temperature in the precipitator begins to rise, and the temperature sensed by the temperature sensing means 6A, 6B is set.

Ejected from 2A and 2B, the temperature inside the electric dust collector is lowered. As a result, it is possible to prevent the temperature from partially rising and interfere with the electrostatic precipitator, and other facilities around the electrostatic precipitator and structures where the precipitator is installed. It is possible to prevent troubles.

  Also, when the dust collection unit dimensions are vertical x horizontal x height is about 1m x about 1m x about 1m, the part where the temperature rises further connects the temperature sensing means 6A and 6B to the ground. When it is located just diagonally from a certain place, it may be difficult to sense the temperature rise by the temperature sensing means 6A, 6B. In such a case, the smoke detection means 7A and 7B provided on the downstream side of the dust collection unit senses the occurrence of a temperature rise.

  In addition, when the temperature or smoke exceeding the set value is detected, the lamp as the display means 8 is turned on to notify that the temperature or smoke exceeding the set value has been detected. Outputs a signal and anomaly signal notifying that a temperature or smoke above the set value has been detected, and can detect a temperature above the set value or detecting smoke at a remote location such as a monitoring room. It is like that.

One of temperature sensing means 6A and 6B or smoke sensing means 7A and 7B may be provided. Since wind flows in the dust collection unit, heat or smoke flows downstream without being detected by the temperature sensing means 6A, 6B or smoke sensing means 7A, 7B provided in the casing, Since it may reach the fan 5, in such a case, the temperature sensing means 6A, 6B or the smoke sensing means 7A, 7B provided in the portion of the blower fan 5 senses a temperature higher than an abnormal set value or senses smoke. Therefore, it is designed to prevent anomaly detection leakage.
