Requirements for compressed air precooler in lithium battery industry
In the production process of the lithium battery industry, compressed air is a key process medium, and its pretreatment is crucial to ensuring product quality. For the technical requirements of compressed air precooler, it is necessary to explain in conjunction with industry characteristics and equipment functions:
1. temperature control requirements
The lithium battery process is sensitive to the temperature of compressed air. The precooler needs to quickly reduce the high-temperature gas (usually 80-120℃) discharged by the air compressor to a reasonable range (such as 40-50℃) to avoid the impact of excessive temperature on subsequent treatment equipment. Performance, while reducing the moisture content in the air.
2. Dehumidification and cleanliness guarantee
The pre-cooler needs to use efficient condensation and separation devices to remove liquid water and some impurities in the compressed air. Granklin’s water-lubricated screw air compressor adopts oil-free design to avoid oil pollution from the source. However, water vapor may still be carried during the compression process, which requires further drying with a precooler to ensure that the air dew point meets the lithium battery process requirements (usually-40℃ to-70℃).
3. Energy saving and stability design
The pre-cooler needs to operate in conjunction with the air compressor system to optimize energy consumption through intelligent control. Granklin models use water lubrication technology to reduce the compression process temperature and reduce the load on the precooler; at the same time, the precooler adopts an efficient heat exchange structure to ensure the cooling effect while reducing operating costs.
4. Adaptability requirements
The pre-cooler needs to match the output characteristics of Granklin air compressor. For example, parameters such as processing air volume and pressure range need to be seamlessly connected to avoid airflow fluctuations or processing efficiency reduction caused by equipment mismatch.
In summary, the requirements of the lithium battery industry for compressed air precooler focus on temperature control, dehumidification and cleaning, and energy-saving adaptation. Through oil-free design and efficient compression technology, Granklin water-lubricated screw air compressor provides a low-pollution and stable air source foundation for the precooler. The synergy of the two can meet the high-quality demand for compressed air in lithium battery production and help ensure the consistency and safety of battery products.
