Issues regarding the installation of eye wash stations in chemical manufacturing enterprises
Thread Content
Should the eyewash stations in tank areas for diesel, naphtha, coal tar, etc., be located outside or inside the protective dikes?
It doesn’t seem to be clearly specified; either inside or outside is fine! If the tank area is large, place it inside; if it’s small, place it on top!
It should be placed outside the retaining wall....
Regarding the detailed specifications for eye wash stations and shower stations, in China, only Article 4.1.4 of the \"Regulations on Safety and Health Design for Chemical Enterprises\" (HG20571-95) stipulates that their service radius should be less than 15 meters.
:Victory: Most of the opponents are at 15 meters or less than 15 meters
Inside the tank area or outside? How to prevent freezing in winter?
There are no specific regulations on this. Personally, I think that some fire-resistant bags have a higher standard; since they are needed for certain operations carried out inside, it is appropriate to place them there
The few locations I’ve been to were all set up outside the walls
Place it in an accessible location. . . . . . . . . . .
The small tank area can be set up next to the ladder outside the fire dike, while for the large tank area a radius of 15 meters should be considered, with a few more added inside the fire dike
There are no special requirements regarding the interior or exterior; it’s sufficient as long as the potential leakage points lie within its operating radius
