The issue of safety distance
Thread Content
Are there specifications stating the required safety distance from the emergency button on site to the shut-off valve?
I’ve done distances of several kilometers; I haven’t heard of any specific requirements.
The emergency button on-site should be placed in a location that is easy to access and protected from rain and sunlight; add a protective cover to prevent accidental activation: lol. I didn’t see any specific regulatory requirements regarding this.
On-site emergency button: It is generally required to be located at a safe distance of 15 meters away, in a location that is easily accessible. Such as the on-site emergency button for fire isolation valves: it is generally installed at a distance of 15 meters from the valve, in a suitable and safe location where it can be easily accessed for operation.
