1. Improvement of material utilization
The cyclopentane premix system uses a static mixer and a metering pump to achieve accurate proportions of polyols and cyclopentane. The mixing ratio error can trigger an alarm to ensure maximum utilization of raw materials. Compared with Freon technology, cyclopentane has a smaller molecular weight, and the amount can be saved by nearly half, and the thermal conductivity increases less, which reduces material costs while ensuring thermal insulation performance.
2. Continuity and automation development
Traditional Freon foaming relies on manual intervention, while the cyclopentane premix system adopts a continuous static mixing process, interacts with the main equipment through a PLC control system, and realizes continuous production of the main foaming machine.
3. Improvement of energy consumption and thermal efficiency
The cyclopentane premix system generally adopts Class D digital amplifier technology, with an energy conversion efficiency of more than 90%, which is much higher than the 60-70% of traditional Class AB amplifiers. During the mixing process, the material temperature is controlled by a heat exchanger, and the nitrogen pressure-maintaining technology is combined to reduce volatilization losses and reduce overall energy consumption. In contrast, Freon technology requires maintaining a low temperature environment and complex gas phase processing, which consumes more energy.
4. Environmental compliance and reduction of safety costs
The ODP value of cyclopentane is zero, and the GWP is only 1/10,000 to 4/10,000 of CFC-11, which meets the requirements of global environmental regulations. The system has built-in explosion-proof control, and through magnetic couplings, explosion-proof motors and nitrogen pressure-maintaining design, the safety risk is reduced to 1/5 of the traditional Freon process. This not only reduces the efficiency loss caused by environmental penalties or accidental shutdowns, but also reduces the long-term cost of enterprise upgrades.
