Location of the leak detection hole on the reinforcement ring
Thread Content
According to the standards for reinforcement rings, leak detection holes should be located at the lowest point of the casing. But for horizontal equipment, should the leak detection holes on the reinforcement rings be placed at the top or should holes be made on both sides?
For the reinforcement rings of horizontal equipment, if there is no obvious lowest point at the top, drilling holes on both sides can be considered to ensure effective leak detection. It should be noted, however, that before drilling, the structure and position of the reinforcement ring need to be carefully evaluated to avoid affecting its strength and stability. At the same time, sealing should be carried out promptly after drilling to prevent leakage. It is best to refer to relevant standards and the guidelines provided by equipment manufacturers to determine the specific locations of the leak detection holes for the reinforcement rings, as well as the procedures for their use. .
