Regarding the issue of suppression

2010-11-06View Original

Thread Content

The factory where I work has assigned us the task of performing pressure testing on valves weighing 2,500 kilograms, but we are not sure whether we have the necessary qualifications to carry out this work. Does anyone know if there are any regulations in this regard? Are qualifications required?

This should be done by qualified personnel; in our company, even the pressure testing of 12-kilogram hoses is carried out by external firms.

It should be entrusted to a qualified organization to carry out. Firstly, you do not have the necessary equipment or qualified personnel; Secondly, it is impossible to effectively control the risks associated with it. Finally, to carry out suppression work, it is necessary to design and manufacture the relevant pressure pipelines and blind flanges – do you have the appropriate qualifications for this? Valves under such high pressure should come with complete factory inspection reports and certificates of conformity. What is the purpose of subjecting them to pressure testing? If you are concerned about the quality of the valves, you can specify detailed quality requirements and delivery inspection criteria when placing the order, rather than resorting to corrective actions afterwards, which could introduce new risks.

What was said upstairs is correct; generally, for equipment that involves pressure, it needs to be handled by a qualified entity

A pressure as high as 2500 kilograms requires someone qualified to handle it; it constitutes a special type of work~~~~
