Explosion prevention issues in the filter press workshop
Thread Content
According to the regulations, the filter press workshop where acetylene is produced is classified as a Class A explosion-proof area; therefore, all electrical equipment must be explosion-proof. However, in reality, the motors of filter presses used by many manufacturers are not explosion-proof, and some of them have been in use for many years. I would like to ask: can a filter press motor that is not explosion-proof be used after all? What is the level of safety associated with it? Do other companies have any good experiences in this regard? This post was last edited by shizhiyong001 on 2009-3-25 09:17.]
In explosion-proof areas, explosion-proof electrical equipment must be used. If it is not in an explosion-proof area, there is no need to use explosion-proof electrical equipment. This post was last edited by shizhiyong001 on 2009-3-25 09:17.]
The pressure filtration workshop where acetylene is produced is classified as a Class A explosion-proof area; therefore, all electrical equipment must be explosion-proof. Therefore, all electrical equipment must be explosion-proof; if nothing goes wrong, you won’t get any compensation for the money you saved. But if an accident occurs, you’ll be in trouble, and in serious cases, you may even face criminal liability. So you’ve thought it through; the concept of lifetime responsibility for projects is also being discussed these days. Even if you stop working there, they’ll hold you accountable if something goes wrong.
The calcium carbide filter press workshop is a blast-proof area, as acetylene is dissolved in the slurry, and it is inevitable that there will be some unreacted calcium carbide. Where there is acetylene gas, there is a possibility of gas accumulation, and thus a risk of danger. We follow explosion-proof post management, and for routine maintenance and welding work, we obtain welding permits in accordance with relevant regulations.
But some design institutes design ones that are not explosion-proof
Follow the regulations at all times – do not experiment with your life!
