Urgent help: Is it illegal to use methods such as applying plates or covering containers to deal with chemical leaks? Are there any standards or guidelines I can refer to? Thank you. Although some leaks can be sealed while the system is under pressure, and there are standards and guidelines for such sealing operations, in some cases it’s not possible to seal the leak under pressure, or the clamps used for this purpose are too large; as a result, it’s necessary to use plates or enclosures to fix the issue. I’m not sure if there are any relevant standards to follow. If anyone is familiar with these standards, please advise me. Thank you. . .
As one of the methods for effectively preventing leaks during emergency situations, there are no specific guidelines outlined for what individuals should do. However, as a special type of operation, it is necessary to conduct risk analysis and identification, develop countermeasures, and issue permits for such operations. When the identified risks are high and no effective solutions exist, it is not recommended to attempt to seal the leak; instead, complete replacement should be carried out.
What if it is said that this method of using stickers or packaging boxes does not comply with the pressure pipeline regulations? What if I have to stop the car to make a replacement?
Could anyone with experience give some advice? Thank you
What rule is being violated? It’s just a quick help in difficult times
It mainly depends on the sealing pressure; using a box to seal things poses certain risks. It’s better to opt for using clamps to stop leaks. If the fixture is too large, a variable fixture that allows for adhesive sealing can be used. It’s recommended to avoid using boxes for sealing. I do have some cases you can refer to
It is not recommended to wrap the box; previously, we ended up with a whole box due to steam leakage, and it exploded
