Definition of Pipe Dredging: Pipe dredging is a common pipe repair service used in daily life, generally referring to the dredging of household drains, municipal pipes, and industrial pipes. The causes of pipe blockage are complex, but can be broadly categorized as follows: Chronic blockage: Over time, fluid substances gradually adhere to the pipe walls, narrowing the pipe. Chemical reactions between the pipe itself and other substances also gradually narrow the pipe, eventually leading to blockage. Blockage caused by foreign objects: This is simply when something falls into the pipe and causes a blockage.
Internal blockage in rubber industrial pipes is often caused by rubber particles within the pipe. Rubber industrial pipes come in three different diameters: 0-30mm, 30-60mm, and 60-120mm. Pipes with an inner diameter less than or equal to 1200mm have the smallest internal cross-section, are the most commonly used, and are most prone to blockage, leading to air leaks. In practical use, due to different operating environments, varying operating conditions, and other reasons (such as air density being greater than water, low pressure); or in some cases, due to internal cross-section blockage (such as sealant entering the system), the sealing layer may be damaged and leaks may occur; or improper use may lead to abnormal flow, or even block the internal medium of the rubber industrial hose. So, how to solve this?
- Cleaning the Hose
When cleaning the rubber industrial hose, do not use hard objects such as wire brushes. High-pressure water can be used for rinsing, or a high-pressure air gun or other tools can be used to rinse the hose. When cleaning the hose with a wire brush or soft wire brush, be careful not to apply excessive force to avoid damaging the hose surface material.
- Selecting the Appropriate Hose Model
Different operating environments and conditions require different rubber industrial hose models. During use, pay attention to ambient temperature and pressure. During installation, avoid deforming the hose; after installation, ensure the hose does not leak.
- Controlling the Air Pressure in the Hose
Rubber industrial hose manufacturers should design a reasonable hose working pressure range based on the system pressure required by the user. Simultaneously, a reasonable working pressure range for the hose should be designed to ensure effective control of air pressure during use and avoid leakage problems. Furthermore, attention should be paid to whether there are serious leaks at the hose rubber joints and hose end threads. The operating environment for rubber industrial hoses is harsh, placing high demands on rubber materials and processing technology.
- Selecting the Appropriate Hose Type
Causes of internal blockage in rubber industrial hoses: The inner wall of the rubber is not smooth, containing impurities and oil spots, continuously absorbing oil and impurities; the inner surface of the rubber is rough, increasing its surface adsorption capacity. Different operating environments: Large amounts of water or gas entering the system through the hose can lead to a decrease in inner diameter pressure or blockage of the internal cross-section. Different operating conditions: During use, operating conditions need to be considered when selecting the rubber industrial hose model.
- Using Correct Operating Methods and Procedures
During operation, it is essential to strictly follow the operating procedures; failure to do so can easily damage the rubber industrial hose. Frequent malfunctions are mainly due to improper installation or use, improper adjustment, inadequate lubrication of the system, and replacement of seals.
