What is a Mars catcher? What are the design requirements?
Mars catcher is composed of intake pipe, exhaust pipe, cylinder, cone and ash hopper. Because of its simple structure, easy manufacture, installation, maintenance and management, and low equipment investment and operation cost, it has been widely used to separate solid and liquid particles from gas flow or from liquid.
Mars catcher is a dry gas-solid separation device, which uses the centrifugal force generated by the contraction of rotating dusty gas to separate dust from the gas flow. When the dust laden airflow enters the equipment through the intake pipe, the air flow will change from linear motion to circular motion. Dust particles with higher density than gas lose inertia force when contacting the wall and fall down into the ash discharge pipe along the wall. The purified gas is discharged from the exhaust pipe exhauster, and some of the dust liquid which is not supplemented is discharged from the exhaust pipe. It has high collection and separation efficiency for dust above 5-10 M
The design requirements of Mars trapper are as follows:
(3) It is a simple and feasible method to install Mars trapper on the pipeline. When Mars passes through the trap, it sends out an electrical signal to give an alarm. At the same time, stop the operation or replace the gas circuit.
