What do I need to pay attention to when using gas alarms in boiler rooms?
Gas safety hazards in boiler rooms exist mainly in the areas of gas leaks and electrical equipment failures. Gas leaks may occur in areas such as gas lines, valve meters, fittings, etc. between the regulator station and the boiler, and may lead to fires and explosions in the event of open flames, static electricity, lightning, or improper operation. And electrical equipment failures may also lead to an increased risk of fire and explosion.
Ensure that gas pipes, valves and connections are well sealed, regularly checked for gas leaks, and equipped with fire alarms and fire extinguishing equipment. Carry out regular maintenance and inspections of gas pipes and equipment to ensure that they are functioning properly and that there are no gas leaks or other problems. When using gas, keep the room well ventilated to avoid safety hazards such as open flames or static electricity. When operating gas equipment, it is necessary to strictly follow the operating procedures to avoid improper operation leading to gas leakage.
At the same time, in order to prevent electrical equipment failure, the electrical equipment in the gas boiler room should comply with the relevant safety standards, regularly check the use of electrical lines and equipment, and find and deal with electrical failures in a timely manner; avoid the use of electronic equipment such as cell phones near the gas equipment, in order to prevent electrical failures caused by electromagnetic interference; carry out regular maintenance and inspection of the electrical equipment and lines to ensure that they function properly and do not have short circuits, breaks and other problems; when using gas equipment, pay attention to indoor ventilation to avoid electric sparks and other safety hazards.
Preventing gas leaks and electrical equipment failure is a key measure to ensure the safety of boiler room gas. It is necessary to strengthen the daily inspection and maintenance of gas equipment and electrical equipment, improve the safety awareness and operating skills of operators, and ensure the safe operation of gas equipment and electrical equipment.
The use of gas alarms in boiler rooms can effectively monitor gas leaks and prevent potential fire and explosion risks.
Issues to note when using gas alarms
Installation location: The gas alarm should be installed in a place where there is no shock, no vibration, and no interference from strong electromagnetic fields such as high-power motors and transformers. At the same time, if there is no supporting linkage exhaust fan in the boiler room, gas electromagnetic shut-off valve and other auxiliary equipment, the gas alarm control box should be installed in the 24-hour staff on duty conveyor room or custodial room, in order to detect problems in a timely manner and quickly disposed of.
Probe installation: gas alarm probe in the installation must be careful, can not be negligent to break the probe.
Determine the monitoring point: for the existence of a large number of gas leakage possibility of dangerous places, such as space is relatively closed to the large gas boiler room, every 10-20m apart should be set up a detection point. For general gas places such as restaurants, restaurants kitchen, cooking room is usually 20 square meters a probe is appropriate. The number of probes should be installed according to the actual need for reasonable and scientific arrangement, in order to prevent the existence of hidden dangers, not to achieve the purpose of fire prevention.
Installation height: According to the density of the leaking gas is different, the probe should be installed in different locations. For gas density greater than air media such as liquefied gas, the probe should be installed in the leak below the plane, generally installed above the ground from the ground about 30cm. For the measured gas density is less than the air medium, such as natural gas, hydrogen, etc. should be installed in the probe above the leak, the installation height should be about 30CM from the ceiling.
In short, the correct installation and use of gas alarms can effectively monitor gas leakage, prevent fire and explosion accidents, to ensure the safe operation of the boiler room.
