What should you pay attention to when using asphalt melting equipment in cold winter?

In the cold winter, you need to pay attention to the following points when using asphalt melting equipment:
1. Protection from cold and warmth: The equipment needs to be operated indoors or in a place with shading facilities, and ensure that the temperature of the equipment and the surrounding environment is maintained within an appropriate range.
2. Check the equipment: Before use, the equipment should be checked, including whether the circuits, fluid circuits and other parts of the equipment are working normally, and whether there are any leaks of electricity or water in the equipment.
3. Pay attention to safety: During operation, you should wear protective equipment and avoid direct contact with hot asphalt. At the same time, it is necessary to avoid equipment overload operation and prevent equipment damage and safety accidents.
4. Control speed: Reasonably control the working speed of the equipment according to weather conditions and road conditions to avoid overheating of the equipment, causing asphalt to flow too quickly or burn.
5. Storage conditions: When not in use, place the device in a dry, ventilated place with moderate temperature, and ensure that any residue in the device is completely removed.

    We need to prepare a lot of work when using modified asphalt equipment. What kind of work do we need to prepare? Next, let me briefly introduce the relevant knowledge points.
    1. Heat transfer oil heats and insulates the modified asphalt equipment and nozzle. After spraying, the asphalt pump and nozzle do not need to be cleaned with diesel. Use high-pressure air to press the asphalt in the pipeline and spray pipe back to the tank, and then blow the nozzle; use heat transfer oil to keep warm, so that the pipeline and nozzle are smooth and unobstructed. 2. Various asphalts can be spread: high-viscosity asphalt, hot asphalt, emulsified asphalt, etc.; the spreading width can be freely adjusted, each nozzle can be controlled separately, and the maximum spraying width is up to 6m. Flexible handheld spray guns can be used to spray asphalt on corners. 3. Excellent thermal insulation performance, average cooling ≤1-2℃/h. 4. Convenient loading and unloading function. In addition to filling asphalt from the asphalt tank port, hot asphalt can be sucked out by itself, and external asphalt can also be pumped and transferred. 5. The modified asphalt equipment is evenly spread, and the nozzle design can be used for triple overlapping spraying.
    The above are the relevant knowledge points of modified asphalt equipment. I hope the above content can be helpful to everyone. Thank you for your viewing and support. More information will be sorted out for you later. Please pay attention to our website updates.

    In the field of road construction, the technical adaptability of emulsified asphalt production equipment directly affects the efficiency of the project. This article analyzes the technical path for efficient production from three dimensions: equipment selection, core components, and cross-industry technology migration.
    I. Equipment type and technical adaptability
    Mainstream equipment is divided into mobile and fixed types. The ZMLR6000 equipment adopts a 304 stainless steel tank and a thermal oil heating system. The ±0.5% ratio accuracy meets the fineness requirements of high-grade roads ≤5μm, which is suitable for field operations. The YK6 unit realizes dual-mode heating through the RH6 colloid mill, heats to 100℃ within 45 minutes, supports continuous production of 20%-70% solid content, and has a daily production capacity of 120 tons, which is more suitable for small and medium-sized projects.
    II. Core component technology breakthroughs
    1. High-speed shear system: The German imported colloid mill adopts a stepped internal tooth structure with a rotation speed of 10,000rpm. The 0.05mm shear gap ensures that the asphalt particles are refined to 1-5μm, and the emulsion stability is improved by 30%.
    2. Temperature control and energy-saving design: The waste heat recovery system reduces energy consumption by 30%, the 10㎡ heat exchanger achieves closed-loop energy conservation, and the ±0.5℃ temperature control accuracy can simulate the long-term aging process of asphalt.
    3. Intelligent control system: The Internet of Things module supports remote early warning, and the SCADA system integrates 32 temperature sensors. The temperature difference is monitored in real time through dynamic thermal imaging, and the solid content deviation is controlled within ±1%.

    Water is one of the raw materials of the modified asphalt storage tank, and it is distributed in various components of the modified asphalt storage tank equipment. According to the components where water is distributed, the anti-cold measures are explained one by one. The water tank of the modified asphalt storage tank, the water inside the water tank is released through the filter valve. Some instruments of the modified asphalt storage tank do not have a filter valve to save the cost of the equipment. The modified asphalt storage tank can only be drained by loosening the flange bolts at the bottom. The water pump of the modified asphalt storage tank mentioned here includes a hot water pump and a circulating water pump. This type of water pump for the modified asphalt storage tank generally uses a pipeline centrifugal pump. There is a sewage outlet at the bottom of the pipeline centrifugal pump. The modified asphalt storage tank pays attention to the sewage treatment of the sewage outlet at the bottom of the pump. The modified asphalt storage tank emulsion tank generally uses a cone bottom. However, in order to better process the modified asphalt storage tank coefficient, the inlet and outlet are usually not placed at the bottom of the modified asphalt storage tank. Emulsion (mostly water) will remain at the bottom of the tank, and this part of the residual liquid in the modified asphalt storage tank must be discharged through the filter valve at the bottom. Emulsion pump for modified asphalt storage tank There are basically two types of emulsion pumps for modified asphalt storage tank equipment on the market, gear pumps or centrifugal water pumps. Gear pumps can only discharge the liquid inside the pump through the connection flange of the pipeline. The centrifugal water pump for modified asphalt storage tanks uses its own sewage outlet for sewage treatment. The first four items of modified asphalt storage tanks with basic knowledge are basically discharged, and the modified asphalt storage tanks will focus on the latter types. Modified asphalt storage tank colloid mill There will also be residual emulsion or water inside the modified asphalt storage tank colloid mill. The gap between the stator and rotor of the colloid mill is within 1mm. If there is a little residual water in the modified asphalt storage tank, it will cause the accident of frozen modified asphalt storage tank. The residue in the colloid mill can be treated by loosening the connection bolts of the finished product pipeline.
