1.What is an oil temperature control units ?
An oil temperature control units is a temperature control device that uses heat transfer oil as a medium, consisting of an oil tank, cooler, heating tube, pressure gauge, pressure switch, transmission system, hydraulic system, control system, temperature sensor, and oil filling port.Pump (circulating pump): Transfers heat transfer oil from the reservoir to the system, heating it through the heating tube, and circulating it into molds or other equipment requiring temperature control. Simultaneously, cooled heat transfer oil is recirculated back to the reservoir.
Heating tube: The main function of the heating tube in the oil temperature control units is to heat the heat transfer medium, raising the temperature of the heat transfer oil medium to meet the temperature requirements in the production process.
Cooler: Cools the heat transfer oil passing through the heating equipment (such as molds) to lower it to an appropriate circulating temperature before recirculating it back to the reservoir for reheating.
Pressure gauge: Monitors the internal pressure of the system and feeds data back to the control system to determine if the oil temperature controller is operating within a safe range. If the pressure exceeds the set value, it may lead to equipment failure or other safety risks. By monitoring the readings on the pressure gauge, operators can take appropriate measures to ensure the system's safe operation. Additionally, the pressure gauge can help diagnose potential system faults, such as valve leaks, pipe blockages, or component failures.
Temperature sensor: Detects the temperature at the outlet and inlet of the oil type mold temperature controller in real time, then feeds the detected temperature back to the control system. When the actual temperature exceeds the set value, the oil type mold temperature controller activates the cooling function and deactivates the heating function. When the actual temperature is below the set value, the heating function activates, and the cooling function deactivates.
Electrical control system: Controls and monitors various parameters within the oil type mold temperature controller system, such as temperature, pressure, flow rate, etc., to ensure the equipment's stable operation. Additionally, the electrical control system can detect various faults that may occur during system operation, record fault events, provide fault diagnosis information, and help operators quickly locate and resolve issues.
Safety valve: A safety device used to protect equipment and systems. Its main function is to automatically release pressure when the internal pressure of the system exceeds the set value, to prevent equipment or system over-pressure situations, avoiding equipment damage or serious accidents such as explosions. Once the pressure returns to a safe range, the safety valve closes, maintaining the system's normal operation.
Liquid level switch: Installed inside the oil tank, it prevents the heat transfer oil level from being too low or overflowing, protecting the equipment from potential damage or accidents caused by abnormal liquid levels.
Oil Discharge Port: During use, heat transfer oil may be affected by contaminants, impurities, and oxidation products, which may reduce the thermal conductivity and stability of the heat transfer oil. By setting up an oil discharge port, operators can regularly drain the heat transfer oil from the system to remove impurities and contaminants. This helps maintain the cleanliness of the heat transfer oil, improve the system's thermal conductivity efficiency, and extend the life of the heat transfer oil.
2. Types of oil temperautre control units
Depending on the temperature control range, oil temperature controllers can be divided into standard oil temperature control units,hot oil temperature control units, and ultra-high-temperature oil temperature control units.
2.1 Standard oil temperature control units
The temperature control range is room temperature to 180°C. Kassel's standard oil temperature control units use high-quality imported components from international first-line brands such as ABB, WEST, and CRYDOM, ensuring stable performance and long service life. The equipment features temperature deviation alarms, over-temperature automatic power-off protection, etc., ensuring the equipment is always within a safe operating range.2.2 Hot oil temperature control units
Also known as oil heaters, the temperature control range is room temperature to 300°C. Kassel's hot oil temperature control units use core components from international first-line brands, with various protection systems, high safety, and long service life. They are widely used in processes requiring high-temperature treatment such as chemical reaction kettles, lithium battery materials, rubber vulcanization, etc.Ultra high oil temperature control units: The temperature control range is room temperature to 400°C,Kassel can customize products according to customer requirements too.
3. Applications of Oil Type Mold Temperature Controller
3.1 Laboratories
Oil temperature controllers used in laboratory reaction kettle jackets provide precise temperature control, process control, and safety protection. This provides a reliable temperature management system for chemical reactions, synthesis, catalysis, and other experiments in the laboratory, helping researchers achieve more accurate, efficient, and safe experimental operations.3.2 Rubber Processing Industry
In the rubber vulcanization industry, oil temperature controllers can replace traditional boiler equipment, providing the temperature required for vulcanization heating. The temperature can be set according to the rubber formula, ensuring uniform heating of the molds, shortening vulcanization time, and improving production efficiency.3.3 Composite Material Industry
Oil type mold temperature controllers are widely used in the processing of composite materials. Taking hot pressing molding as an example, the main role of oil type mold temperature controllers in the hot pressing molding process is to control the temperature inside the mold cavity to ensure that the resin and glass fiber can quickly cure at the appropriate temperature, thereby ensuring the quality of composite materials and improving production efficiency.In addition, Oil type mold temperature controllers are also used in the chemical industry, mold processing, and medical equipment fields.
In summary, the Oil type mold temperature controller plays a crucial role as an important temperature control device in industrial production. It achieves temperature control and regulation through the heat transfer oil medium, meeting the diverse needs for stable temperature control across industries.
