Steam pressure vessel issues

2008-02-20View Original

Thread Content

I would like to ask all students, on the steam pressure vessel, there is only a remote pressure display and no on-site pressure gauge. Does it comply with the relevant regulations??????? What are the regulations??????? There are two steam generators in our factory. Only the pressure transmitter is remotely transmitted to the control room to display the pressure. There is no pressure gauge on it. I am worried that once the pressure transmitter fails, how can the operator know the pressure? After contacting the manufacturer, they said that there is no need to install it. I would like to ask if there are relevant regulations. Thank you everyone!!!!!!!!!:handshake :handshake

There should be one on site, because if the remote transmission pressure fails, it will cause safety hazards. It should be added that there is no need to save that money.

There is no mandatory requirement, but there is a triple device that can be connected to the on-site pressure gauge and one end to the remote transmitter.

Installing an electric contact pressure gauge can solve this problem. How much is a gauge worth? Why bother?

Since there is a pressure transmitter that is transmitted remotely to the control room, a pressure measuring point must have been installed. A pressure gauge should not be very expensive. Once the pressure transmitter fails, the consequences are unimaginable.

Safety accessories including pressure gauges should be installed where operators can easily observe them, so pressure gauges should be installed on the equipment.

It is very common that pressure vessels are not equipped with pressure gauges. For details, please refer to the vessel drawings and process design.

It is recommended that you add it, which can increase the safety factor of equipment operation.

There should be a local indicator to prevent the remote control from being unable to monitor when there is a failure. It seems to be a must.

It is recommended that you add a local display level gauge, which can enhance the safety factor when the equipment is running.

I think it would be better to have an on-site pressure gauge, which is more convenient for safe monitoring and operation, because when we need to go to the site from time to time during working hours to conduct inspections, including pressure, temperature, flow and other process indicators, problems can be discovered and dealt with in a timely manner. In addition, if the external insulation effect of the pressure transmitter is not good, it will easily freeze when the temperature is very low in winter, causing false instructions and incorrect operations. Giving the operator more "eyes" can avoid some safety accidents. It is strongly recommended that you install an on-site pressure gauge.

If you feel unsafe, add another one yourself. Boiler is no small matter
