Before the major maintenance, extensive ultrasonic testing of pressure pipelines is carried out on the equipment – could this pose any risk to the employees?

With the major maintenance campaign approaching, there are increasingly more inspections being carried out at the site at night. Does such inspection work pose any harm to the health of employees? I wonder if your workplace also has such a phenomenon; if so, do you think it’s reasonable? After voting, reply below so that rewards can be given.
Generally, there is no harm: pipeline inspection is carried out in the dead of night when no one is working at the site. Unless someone decides to test the law by doing so.
They will be staggered, right? You will be informed before the inspection; maintaining a safe distance will not pose any problems
The radiation emitted by flaw detection equipment is harmful to the human body; it is recommended to evacuate unrelated people from the area before conducting the inspection, to set up warning barriers at relevant intersections, and to issue safety notices.
It depends on what type of detection is used – gamma rays or X-rays – and also on whether the safety distance is sufficient. Controls are becoming increasingly strict; in our unit, a safety distance is always maintained when conducting flaw detection
For radiographic inspection, a safety line must be installed. . . It’s fine as long as it’s not exposed to light.
