Confined space operation rescue is a vital task, involving people's life safety. To understand and master the basic knowledge and skills of accident rescue in confined space operation is very important to protect people's life safety. This article introduces the basic concepts, characteristics, methods and precautions of accident rescue in confined space operation, hoping to be helpful to readers. In actual operation, it is necessary to take appropriate measures and technical means according to the specific situation to ensure the safety and effectiveness of rescue work.

Confined space refers to closed or partially closed, relatively isolated from the outside world, the entrance and exit are relatively narrow, and it is difficult for operators to stay in the space for a long time. Confined space operation accidents refer to accidents that occur during operation in a confined space, such as poisoning, suffocation, fire, explosion, etc. Confined space operation rescue refers to taking a series of measures and technical means in the event of confined space operation accident to rescue the trapped personnel and reduce the accident hazard.

1. "First ventilation, then detection, after operation" principle: Before entering the confined space operation, the space must be ventilated first to ensure that there is enough oxygen in the space and good air quality. Next, it is necessary to test, including but not limited to the gas composition, oxygen concentration, combustible gas concentration in the space. After confirming that the environmental conditions in the space meet safety standards, work can begin.

2. Take reliable partition measures: In the confined space operation, we must take a reliable partition. The operation area is isolated from other areas to prevent the leakage of toxic and harmful gases or other dangerous substances. At the same time, it is also necessary to isolate the equipment and pipes in the confined space to avoid accidents.

3. Enough lighting: The lighting in the confined space must be sufficient to ensure that the operators can see the working environment and avoid accidents caused by lack of light. At the same time, the lighting equipment must also meet the relevant safety standards to ensure that there will be no safety hazards such as electrical sparks.

4. Complete equipment: In the confined space operation, we need to be equipped with complete protective equipment and rescue equipment, such as gas masks, respirators, first aid kits, etc. The equipment needs to be inspected and maintained before operation to ensure that it is in good condition and effective.

5. Set eye-catching safety warning signs: In the confined space operation, it is necessary to set eye-catching safety warning signs in the working area to remind other personnel to pay attention to safety and avoid accidents. At the same time, it is also necessary to set up a clear emergency exit sign, so that in the event of an accident, we can quickly evacuate.

In short, when carrying out confined space operations, it is necessary to strictly abide by the relevant principles and regulations to ensure the safety and smooth operation. At the same time, it is also necessary to strengthen training and exercises to improve the safety awareness and emergency response capacity of operators.
