The difference between explosion-proof air conditioners and ordinary air conditioners

01: Explosion-proof air conditioning principle of work

Explosion-proof air conditioning is designed to provide comfortable air conditioning in potentially explosion-hazardous environments. Its working principle can be briefly summarized in the following key steps:

Air Circulation: Explosion proof air conditioners use a built-in fan to draw in room air, which is then filtered and purified by an air handling unit. This keeps the indoor air clean and fresh.

Cooling process: The refrigerant circulation system of an explosion-proof air conditioner recovers and circulates refrigerant to lower the indoor temperature. The refrigerant absorbs heat from the indoor air in the evaporator and cools the indoor air. The refrigerant is then compressed to release the heat to the outside environment.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL: Explosion-proof air conditioners have a built-in thermostat that monitors the indoor temperature and controls the operation of the refrigeration cycle. When the temperature reaches the set value, the refrigeration cycle system will automatically stop working until the temperature rises to a level where cooling is needed again.

Safety: Explosion-proof air conditioners are equipped with various safety measures. Explosion-proof air conditioners use fire dampers and special materials to prevent sparks and explosions. Explosion-proof air conditioners are also equipped with a pressure control system to ensure that the internal pressure remains within safe limits and to prevent temperatures from exceeding acceptable limits.

02: Explosion-proof air conditioning working characteristics

The working characteristics of explosion-proof air conditioners include fire and explosion-proof design, safe pressure control, selection of safe refrigerants, good environmental adaptability and customized design. These features enable explosion-proof air conditioners to provide safe and reliable air conditioning services in potentially explosion-hazardous environments.

1. Fire and explosion-proof design: Explosion-proof air conditioners use special fire dampers, explosion-proof materials and explosion-proof designs to prevent sparks or explosions in potentially explosion-hazardous environments. These design measures ensure the safety of the air conditioner and reduce the potential danger.

2. Safe Pressure Control: Explosion-proof air conditioners are equipped with a pressure control system that monitors and regulates the pressure inside the air conditioner. This system ensures that the air conditioner operates within a safe pressure range, thus avoiding temperature runaway and potential explosion risks.

3. Coolant selection: Explosion-proof air conditioners pay more attention to safety when selecting refrigerants. They usually use low-toxicity, non-flammable and non-explosive refrigerants to reduce potential safety risks.

4. Environmental adaptability: Explosion-proof air conditioners usually have good environmental adaptability and are able to operate normally under extreme temperature conditions. They can adapt to high temperature, low temperature and humidity and other special environments, to ensure that in a variety of work scenarios to provide stable air conditioning effect.

Because explosion-proof air conditioners are often used in special industrial environments, their design often needs to be customized to meet specific requirements. This includes installation locations, dimensions, electrical requirements and more. A customized design ensures compatibility with existing facilities and meets industry-specific requirements.

03: What is the difference between explosion-proof air conditioners and ordinary air conditioners?

Explosion-proof air conditioners differ significantly from ordinary air conditioners in terms of safety design, protective measures, environmental adaptability, customized design and scope of application.

Explosion-proof air conditioners pay more attention to safety and special environmental needs, providing safe and reliable air conditioning services in hazardous environments.

1. Safety design: explosion-proof air conditioners are designed with special fire dampers, explosion-proof materials and explosion-proof structures to prevent sparks and explosions in potentially explosive environments. These safety designs ensure that explosion-proof air conditioners operate without danger in potentially explosive environments.

2. Safety measures: explosion-proof air conditioners are usually equipped with a pressure control system to ensure that the air conditioner operates within a safe pressure range. This prevents temperature runaway and potential explosion hazards. Explosion-proof air conditioners also have special cooling water options to minimize potential safety hazards.

3. Environmental adaptability: explosion-proof air conditioners are usually environmentally adaptable and can operate properly in extreme temperature conditions. Explosion-proof air conditioners are specially designed to cope with high temperatures, low temperatures and high humidity environments, providing stable cooling under a variety of operating conditions.

4. Customized design: explosion-proof air conditioners are usually used in special industrial environments and often need to be designed according to specific requirements, such as installation location, size and electrical requirements. Compared with traditional air conditioners, explosion-proof air conditioners require more attention to the following aspects.

04: Explosion-proof air conditioning will appear temperature can not be adjusted for what reasons?

1. Check if the mode of the explosion-proof air conditioner is set in cooling or heating mode, if not, you need to set the air conditioner back to cooling or heating mode for temperature adjustment.

2. Check if the remote control is out of power or malfunctioning. Insufficient power or damage to the remote control will affect the temperature adjustment function.

3. Clean the filter of the air conditioner. If the filter accumulates dust seriously, it will affect the cooling effect and air quality. Remove the filter, wash it with detergent and dry it.

4. Check the heat sink of the air conditioner, use a rag or brush to clean the dust on the surface of the heat sink, then spray air conditioner cleaner and turn on the air conditioner for about ten minutes to remove the sewage. This can effectively remove dirt and bacteria.

5. Check whether there is a lack of refrigerant or a high accumulation of dust inside the air conditioner. If these are the problems, you need to add refrigerant in time and clean the stains.

6. Check whether the four-way valve of the explosion-proof air conditioner is leaking. Four-way valve is an indispensable part of the refrigeration equipment, once found four-way valve leakage, you need to replace the four-way valve.

7. Check whether the refrigeration copper tube has air leaks or cracks. If there is such a situation, you need to replace the refrigeration copper tube.
