Abstract
The invention deals with a device to control the desalination and dehydration processes for petroleum in electro-dehydrators. In the latter, the water-petroleum emulsion introduced is separated by an electric field into petroleum and salt water. Regulation of the dehydration and desalination process by means of the current difference of two circuits in the emulgator, in which this difference controls the controlling unit of a regulating valve, via which salt water and dirt remains are removed from the dehydrator, is known. This device, however, is not immune to disturbance, as when changing the water content of the emulsion, spark-overs may occur between one electrode and the surface of the separated salt water. This disturbance is removed according to the invention in that the abrupt changes of current prior to the spark-over cause a forcibly increased through-flow amount of discharging salt water and dirt remains for a certain time and thus prevent the full formation of an electric spark-over disturbing the operation of the dehydrator.
