Our methanol project finished product tank area needs to add eye wash showers, but I don’t know what the specific safety requirements are. Please enlighten me. Thank you.
Just be nearby. Generally installed in the pump shed area or loading area. :)
eye wash station: They are roughly divided into emergency eyewash stations and shower equipment. Emergency eyewash stations and shower equipment are emergency rescue facilities used in toxic and hazardous operating environments. 1. According to the American AI Z358-1 2004 eyewash standard, the materials used to produce eyewash must have three properties:: 1. Performance that meets hygienic requirements. 2. Resistant to corrosion by environmental chemicals. 3. It has certain performance requirements of service life. According to the above regulations, eyewash stations can be made of stainless steel, copper and plastic. 2. "Design Code for Occupational Safety and Health in Petrochemical Enterprises" 4.4.2 A special safety room should be set up near the device control room. The room should be equipped with safety protective clothing, neutralization tank, personal washing facilities, eye washers, emergency medicines, etc. 4.4.3 A personal neutralization tank, accident shower and eyewash should be installed near the main fractionation tower feed pump, reflux pump and regeneration tower feed pump. 5.7.10 The phenol and propylene filling plant should be mechanically ventilated, and the phenol barrel filling point should be equipped with emergency showers and eye washers. 5.10.1 Equipment containing hydrogen fluoride materials should be concentrated in one area, and cofferdams and obvious safety signs should be set up around them. The area should be equipped with personal neutralization pools, equipment and tool neutralization pools, personal flushing facilities and eyewash stations. 5.10.5 A special safety room should be set up in the device, equipped with a neutralization pool, shower, eyewash station, safety protective clothing and first aid medicine kit. 3. "Safety and Hygiene Design Regulations for Chemical Enterprises" 4.1.4 In operating environments with toxic hazards, necessary sanitary protection facilities such as showers and eye washers should be designed with a service radius of less than 15m. 4.6.5 Work areas with the risk of chemical burns should be equipped with necessary safety protection measures such as eye washers and showers, and first aid boxes should be set up in the installation area. 4. "Safety and Hygiene Design Regulations for Chemical Powder Engineering" HG 20532-93 5.5.1.9 Work sites with highly toxic materials should be equipped with emergency facilities such as water showers and eyewash stations nearby. 5. General principles for setting up eyewash stations: 1. The eyewash station is installed in a hazardous chemical area, and the time it takes for users to reach the eyewash station in a straight line shall not exceed 10 seconds. 2. Eye wash station rescue scope: Within 15 meters. 3. Eye washers cannot be installed across floors. 4. There are no electrical switches around the eyewash station to prevent accidents. 5. The eyewash outlet must be connected to the sewer or wastewater treatment tank. 6. Eyewash water pressure requirements: 0.2--0.4MPa This post was last edited by zhangyong6404 on 2009-2-23 22:44 ]
When purchasing, you should also pay attention to where it is used, whether portable or fixed. Other materials include plastic and stainless steel, etc.
Continue a question: Do the above-mentioned equipment need to be installed in the loading and unloading area of hazardous chemicals? How to set it up? Thanks
