In the daily operation of pharmaceutical factories, boilers are important energy equipment, and their stable and safe operation is directly related to the quality and efficiency of drug production. The detection of boiler water quality indicators is an important link to ensure the safe operation of boilers, energy saving and consumption reduction, and extend the service life. This article will discuss the importance of boiler water quality index detection in pharmaceutical factories, common water quality indicators and their detection methods.

1.Importance of boiler water quality index testing

In pharmaceutical factories, boilers are mainly used to provide steam and hot water, which are used in the heating, disinfection and drying of medicines. If the boiler water quality does not meet the standards, it may cause scaling and corrosion inside the boiler, or even cause accidents, affecting the safety and quality of drug production. Therefore, regular testing of boiler water quality indicators is essential to ensure the normal operation of the boiler and the stability of drug production.

2. Common boiler water quality indicators

The main indicators of boiler water quality include pH value, conductivity, hardness, alkalinity, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, total dissolved solids (TDS), etc. These indicators can reflect the impurity content and corrosiveness of water, so as to judge whether the water quality is suitable for boiler use.

3. pH

PH It is an indicator to measure the pH value of water. The pH value of boiler water should usually be controlled between 10-12 to reduce corrosion inside the boiler. Too high or too low a pH value may cause corrosion on the metal surface of the boiler, affecting the safety and life of the boiler.

4.Conductivity

Conductivity reflects the ion content of water. In boiler water, high conductivity usually means that there are more dissolved salts in the water, which may cause scaling inside the boiler and reduce thermal efficiency.

5.Alkalinity

Alkalinity reflects the ability of water to neutralize acidic substances. Appropriate alkalinity can prevent corrosion of boiler metals, but too high alkalinity may cause scaling inside the boiler.

6.Dissolved oxygen

Dissolved oxygen is one of the main causes of boiler metal corrosion. By controlling the deoxygenation of boiler feed water, the corrosion effect of dissolved oxygen on the boiler can be reduced.

7.Detection method

The ERUN-SP boiler water quality testing and analysis instrument produced by Erun Environmental Protection can directly detect multiple indicators of boilers in pharmaceutical factories on one instrument, and can also detect individual indicators separately. We provide parameter customization based on the actual water quality conditions. If you need detailed information and water quality equipment prices, you can directly contact customer service.

Testing of boiler water quality indicators in pharmaceutical factories

In summary, the detection of boiler water quality indicators in pharmaceutical factories is of great significance to ensure the safe operation of boilers and improve the quality of drug production. Through regular detection and reasonable control of water quality indicators, scaling and corrosion inside the boiler can be effectively prevented, ensuring the efficient and stable operation of the boiler, and providing reliable energy guarantee for drug production.
