| EQUIPMENT | CONDITION AT START OF WORK | WHAT WAS MEASURED |
|---|---|---|
| VP 202-13/8 compressor | Plant equipment in service, treated without disassembly and without being taken out of operation | Filling time at a pressure of 38 kgf/cm²; drive current draw |
Measurements before and after treatment — VP 202-13/8 compressor
| PARAMETER | BEFORE | AFTER | CHANGE |
|---|---|---|---|
| Filling time at a pressure of 38 kgf/cm² | 120 s | 99 s | output +21 % |
| Drive current draw | 125 A | 112 A | −13 A · −10.4 % |
The certificate determines compressor output from the filling time at a pressure of 38 kgf/cm²; no direct measurement in m³/min was performed.
Certificate conclusion
After treatment on the run, the same volume is filled in 99 s instead of 120 s, while the drive draws 112 A instead of 125 A: the compressor delivers more air and at the same time consumes less electricity. Conclusion of the certificate: the use of XADO Technology® makes it possible to increase equipment output, thereby extending its service life and lengthening the intervals between overhauls, to prevent wear of new equipment, and to successfully treat compressors by XADO Technology® in normal duty, with guaranteed savings on energy. Recommendations: to introduce into the scheduled equipment repair system planned preventive work on machines and mechanisms by XADO Technology, providing a significant increase in serviceable life. XADO Technology® is recommended for further implementation at OAO KHLEB.
The results relate to the VP 202-13/8 reciprocating compressor of OAO KHLEB, treated under normal operating conditions; figures may differ on other units and in other duty modes. The original certificate of 10.01.2001 with signatures and stamps is published in full and available for download.
