MDP Hydraulics
We provide specialized hydraulic oil stations and lubrication systems for high-end compressors in the energy industry (petrochemicals, coal chemicals, power, natural gas). Our systems are not just accessories; they are the key to ensuring your compressors operate for a long period, with high efficiency and low energy consumption, directly impacting the continuity of production and the economic efficiency of operations.
Our system is strictly designed and manufactured in accordance with API STD 614 (the fifth edition), which exceeds ordinary industrial standards.
• Pipes and Materials: All pressure pipelines use seamless steel pipes with a wall thickness of SCH80 or above, and undergo acid washing and passivation treatment to eliminate the risk of leakage caused by corrosion or pressure fluctuations.
• Cleanliness control: All pipelines within the factory are pre-assembled, cleaned, passivated and sealed. A 72-hour circulation rinse is conducted before leaving the factory to ensure a cleanliness level of NAS 1638 6 or higher, avoiding equipment damage caused by on-site contamination.
• Safety redundancy design: Standard configuration includes two pumps (one in use and one as backup) with automatic uninterrupted switching, dual filters, and a high-level emergency oil tank. This ensures that in the event of a main pump failure, the system can continuously supply oil to the compressor bearings, allowing for a safe shutdown.
Traditional gas stations only offer basic alarms, while our system is an "intelligent monitor" for the health of the compressor.
• Core parameter monitoring: Real-time monitoring of supply pressure, temperature, flow rate and oil tank level, and intuitive display on the HMI.
• Oil quality health analysis (optional): Integrates online viscosity sensors and moisture sensors to monitor the quality changes of the oil in real time. It provides early warnings before the oil deteriorates, scientifically guiding the oil replacement cycle and avoiding excessive maintenance or lubrication failure.
• Remote operation and maintenance support: The data can be connected to the factory's DCS or uploaded to the cloud via the IoT module. You and our engineers can remotely monitor the system status and predict potential risks in advance.
The energy optimization of the lubrication system itself can bring long-term benefits to your enterprise.
• Efficient heat exchange design: Using plate or tube-type coolers with optimized flow channels, compared to traditional designs, the heat exchange efficiency is increased by more than 15%, reducing the consumption of cooling water.
• Frequency conversion drive option: For applications with significant fluctuations in operating conditions, a frequency control main oil pump can be provided. The pump speed can be adjusted according to the actual lubricating oil demand, avoiding waste of electrical energy. The typical energy saving rate can reach 20% - 30%.
• Synthetic oil application support: The system design is compatible with high-performance synthetic lubricants, assisting customers in replacing traditional mineral oils with synthetic oils. This can reduce friction losses and achieve a 1.5% - 3% energy-saving effect for the compressor main unit.
Compressor type | Core challenge | points of our solution |
|---|---|---|
Centrifugal compressors | High-speed sliding bearings (tilting pad bearings) are extremely sensitive to oil temperature and cleanliness. | Dual precision filters (with a precision of up to 3-5 μm) are used, along with a precise temperature control valve to ensure that the inlet oil temperature fluctuation is less than ±2℃. A pressure accumulator is also equipped to stabilize the pressure and prevent bearing wear caused by pressure fluctuations. |
reciprocating compressors | Different pressures of lubricating oil are required for the cylinders, stuffing boxes and crosshead slide ways. The system is complex and prone to leakage | A pressure-regulated lubrication system is designed, with the main oil circuit supplying the bearings and the independently pressure-regulated oil injector supplying the cylinders. A modular piping system and high-quality joints are adopted to minimize on-site leakage points. |
screw compressors | typically use dedicated lubricating oil, which has functions of lubrication, sealing and cooling. The oil is prone to aging | Optimizing the oil-gas separation and cooling process, shortening the residence time of hot oil in the system. Strengthening the oil filtration system to effectively filter out solid impurities in the oil-gas mixture, significantly extending the service life of the lubricating oil and the compressor rotor. |
Process gas compressor (such as recycle hydrogen, ammonia compressor) | The medium gas is flammable, explosive or toxic, and the sealing requirements are extremely high. The gas may seep into the oil. | A double-end face mechanical seal and nitrogen buffer system are adopted to prevent the leakage of process gas. A degassing oil tank or online vacuum dehydration device is equipped to continuously remove the hidden gas dissolved in the oil. |
