Safety improvement requirements for ammonia tanks.

2015-09-11View Original

Thread Content

Experts came to our factory for an inspection and put forward the following requirements for improvement. I was wondering if anyone knows where these standards originate from? ? ? ““The root valves of the inlet and outlet pipes of the liquid ammonia storage tank are located about 6 meters away from the tank body, which does not meet the design requirements”…… Dear comrades, where does this design requirement come from? ? ? The expert also mentioned that \"there are non-explosion-proof air-conditioning outdoor units in the compressor plant\"… I’m speechless; how is this supposed to be fixed? ? Thank you all.

If the compressor room is in a explosion-proof area, explosion-proof equipment must be used; it’s kind of amazing to have air conditioning in a compressor room! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

The expert is right; The root cut-off valve is 6 M away from the tank; the closer the root cut-off valve is to the tank, the better ; I can’t remember the specific standards ; But 6M is definitely above the limit ; I wonder what kind of experts you hired to do the design ; Non-explosion-proof electrical appliances are not required to be used within the explosion-proof area ; It’s **what safety regulations require** ; That’s not wrong either ; You can get an explosion-proof air conditioner ; Don’t think that all experts are just manual laborers ; When the safety supervision department conducts inspections ; Experts in safety and chemical production are often invited to conduct inspections ; It is inspected in accordance with various specifications and standards ;

I’m not sure if there is positive pressure air available near you; if so, it can be used to seal the area and introduce pressurized air, thereby avoiding this inspection.
