Where can I find the design specifications for cable trays in hazardous chemical storage tank areas?
Thread Content
A recent safety inspection indicated that the cable trays in the tank area do not meet the requirements, but it wasn’t specified what those requirements are. Does anyone have any design standards or guideline documents related to this issue? Please let me know. . . .
**A rectification notice will be issued for the non-conformities identified during departmental inspections. The following is for reference only. SHT 3019-2016 Code for Design of Instrumentation and Pipeline Systems in Petrochemical Industries: SHT 3184-2017 Code for Design of Automation Systems in Petrochemical Tank Farms:
Cable filling capacity of the tray, corrosion resistance and fire protection properties of the tray material; the tray should be installed in the ductwork away from areas where corrosive gases and liquids may be present!
Thank you, thank you :handshake
The 2nd and 3rd floors are both correct answers; in addition, there is also clause 15.1.13 of the GB50074-2014 Code for Design of Oil Storage Facilities, as well as clause 2.(ii)2.(5) of Document No. 3 (2012) issued by the General Administration of Work Safety
