20080286087 | System and a Method for Capacity Control in a Screw Compressor - A system and a method for implementing capacity control in a screw compressor, said system comprising; a screw compressor, said compressor driven by a multi-capacity (speed and power) motor to compress air or gas medium, a bypass inlet member with a bypass valve, extending from the high pressure zone to the low pressure zone of the screw compressor to recirculate the gaseous medium, a bypass valve controller functionally connected to said bypass valve, a motor controller functionally connected to the motor to effect multi-capacity (speed and power) operations, a main processing control unit disposed to control the bypass valve and multi-capacity (speed and power) operations, measuring means disposed on the compressed medium passage for measuring the changes in the pressure and/or temperature changes in the form of signals, a signal converter functionally connected to the main processing unit and the measuring means to receive the signals, and said motor controller and bypass valve controller are functionally connected to the main processing unit to perform the capacity control of the screw compressor. | 11-20-2008 |
