According to relevant specifications, equipment other than pumps can be installed beneath the pipeline corridor for flammable liquids. The specific requirements are as follows: 1. Equipment spacing requirement: In accordance with the \"Design Code for Urban Water Supply and Drainage Systems\" (GB 50014), a certain distance must be maintained between the equipment located beneath the pipe galleries to facilitate the operation and maintenance of such equipment. 2. Fire protection requirements for equipment: In accordance with standards such as the \"Code for Design of Building Electrical Engineering\" (GB 50052) and the \"Code for Design of Building Fire Protection Facilities\" (GB 50084), equipment located beneath utility tunnels must meet corresponding fire protection requirements, such as being constructed from fire-resistant materials and having fire isolation measures in place. 3. Equipment drainage requirements: In accordance with the \"Code for Construction and Acceptance of Water Supply and Drainage Projects\" (GB 50268), equipment located beneath pipe galleries shall be equipped with appropriate drainage systems to prevent water from accumulating around the equipment. 4. Equipment ventilation requirements: In accordance with the \"Design Code for Ventilation and Air Conditioning Engineering\" (GB 50736), the \"Design Code for Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Engineering\" (GB 50736), etc., equipment located beneath utility tunnels must have adequate ventilation to prevent overheating or the generation of harmful gases. In summary, the specifications for installing equipment beneath utility tunnels must comply with the design standards applicable to fields such as construction engineering and water supply and drainage engineering, in order to ensure the safe and reliable operation of the equipment. The specific regulatory requirements may vary depending on the region and the particular project; it is recommended to consult professional design firms or relevant authorities in actual projects to obtain accurate regulatory requirements. .

All can be arranged, and the pump can also be placed there. Any equipment can be installed beneath the pipeline corridor for flammable liquids; for liquefied hydrocarbon pipelines, an isolation fireproof board needs to be placed above the equipment. Refer to the specifications “Design of Industrial Pipeline Systems and Engineering Examples”, SH3011, and “Design Manual for Process Pipelines in Petrochemical Industries”
