The confined space gas detector can monitor the concentration of flammable gas or toxic and harmful gas leakage in real time and give early warning in time, effectively reducing the occurrence of explosion, fire, poisoning and other accidents. However, in daily work, the operation of equipment with "failure" often occurs. Common phenomena are:
1. Places with flammable and toxic and harmful gas leakage are not equipped with detection and alarm devices according to national standards.
2. Flammable and toxic gas leakage alarm system is not put into use or in an abnormal state, and the alarm is not disposed of for a long time.
It is important that operators are proficient in the "Petrochemical Combustible Gas and Toxic Gas Detection and Alarm Design Standard" and other specifications to ensure that the sensitive function of the instrument.
New Standard requires:
The new GB/T 50493-2019 "Petrochemical Combustible Gas and Toxic Gas Detection and Alarm Design Standard" has more clear requirements for alarm systems.
The gas detector is set up more clearly
1. The single-component gas medium that belongs to both combustible gas and toxic gas should be equipped with a toxic gas detector.
2. When combustible gas and toxic gas exist at the same time, the concentration of combustible gas and toxic gas may reach the alarm setting value at the same time when leaking, the combustible gas detector and toxic gas detector should be set respectively.
Confined space monitoring equipment should be regularly maintained, and the causes of alarm should be carefully found, such as gas leakage in the tested environment, unreasonable alarm value setting, failure to calibrate on time, sensor damage, equipment line problems, etc. According to the provisions of "Combustible Gas Detection Alarm" (JJG 693-2011) to verify the detection and alarm device, and the cycle is generally not more than 1 year to prevent sensor problems and zero drift. If the instrument is subjected to severe vibration or shock, or if important components are replaced or repaired, it should be calibrated in time. If the detection alarm device is found to be unqualified or faulty, it shall be repaired or replaced immediately.
Gas detector is a precision and professional equipment to protect the safety of various fields of gas environment. In the process of installation and application, the staff should operate in strict accordance with the relevant specifications, and respond to the early warning information in time, take effective rescue measures to prevent problems before they happen!
The confined space gas detector of Yunku Technology can customize the gas type according to the actual needs, and when beyond threshold can be real-time alarm to remind the regulators and the personnel inside the confined space to avoid the occurrence of accidents.
