1. Can valves be installed above the walkways in the facilities of chemical enterprises? 【Answer】No. 【Basis】According to Article 8.1.11 of the Code for Design of Industrial Metal Piping (GB50316-2000 (2008 edition)), piping above roads and railways shall not be equipped with components that may cause leakage, such as valves, flanges, threaded connections, and compensators with fillers.
Valves cannot be installed above the walkways in the facilities of chemical enterprises. This is because the Code for Design of Industrial Metal Piping specifies that pipes above roads and railways should not be equipped with components that may leak, such as valves and flanges. Such regulations are mainly in place to ensure the safety of those using the passage. .
