Winter anti-freezing and anti-slip measures
Thread Content
Winter has arrived, and whenever it snows, thick ice often forms on the inspection routes, causing inconvenience for the plant workers carrying out their inspections. During harsh weather conditions such as snowfall in winter, how to ensure the slip resistance of inspection routes is a topic for which we welcome active participation from all maritime enthusiasts. :victory: For those who engage in in-depth discussions, a reward of 10-20 wealth points is offered; participation is welcome:victory:
1. Address any leaks promptly once they are detected. 2. Clear ice or snow promptly if it forms. 3. Wear non-slip shoes.
This proposal is really good; I hope to exchange ideas with peers. Companies that have the means can scatter some CaCl2 reagent along the inspection routes
The snow can’t be swept continuously. Gloves are required when going out for inspections; inspection tools should be kept in a bag, and it is necessary to hold onto the handrails when using the stairs. The floor tiles at the entrance to the control room are too slippery; add anti-slip mats.
Spreading slag can prevent slipping, but it may produce sparks
The personnel on duty in the inspection passages should clean them promptly. When using the escalators, one must hold onto the handrails tightly and wear anti-slip shoes. It is also important to move slowly during inspections and not walk too fast
1. Address any leaks promptly once they are detected. 2. If ice forms or snow falls, clean it up promptly. 3. If possible, sprinkle CaCl2. 4. Wear anti-slip shoes
1. The snow at the site should be cleared promptly, especially on the platforms； 2. Anti-slip pads should be installed in areas with slopes or steps ； 3. The operator’s cotton shoes must be non-slip ； 4. When going up or down escalators, one must hold onto the handrails tightly; surely not everyone does this properly, and warning signs should be placed at the exit of the escalators to remind people ； 5. In winter, if there are emissions or leaks in the steam and water systems, they must be addressed promptly; otherwise, everything will freeze over ； 6. The heat tracing for the equipment, especially the hot water heat tracing, should be inspected more frequently, as it is particularly prone to freezing.
1. Remove snow and ice accumulations from the site promptly. 2. Spread a certain amount of slag along the inspection route. 3. Wear non-slip shoes or cotton shoes. 4. Eliminate any leakage points promptly. 5. There are gripping points on site.
Spread calcium chloride; in chemical plants, water spots will inevitably appear on the floor. It’s not a problem if there is water – just make sure it doesn’t freeze.
1. After it snows, it is necessary to assign dedicated personnel to carry out snow removal work promptly; the longer snow remains, the more likely it is to freeze. In harsh conditions, calcium chloride can be used to melt the snow, but in steel structure workshops, it is important to clean up the calcium chloride-containing snow water as soon as possible after melting it, in order to prevent corrosion of the platforms and stairs. 2. Take proper measures to keep yourself warm, and prepare the necessary tools for self-rescue such as a flashlight (for night inspections), in case you slip and cannot receive timely assistance
