Safety Control Measures of Air Compressor

Air compressor safety control measures mainly include the following aspects to ensure the safety and stability of air compressor operation:

design and installation of 1. equipment

follow the relevant national design specifications: the air compressor and its supporting storage tanks and piping systems shall be designed in accordance with the relevant national design specifications to ensure the safety performance of the equipment.

Install a dry filter: a dry filter should be installed before the suction pipe of a large air compressor to reduce the impact of impurities in the air on the equipment.

2. operation and maintenance

cooling system: After the air is compressed, the temperature rises sharply, and the air compressor must be equipped with an effective cooling system. Large air compressor cooling water system, water protection device must be sensitive and reliable. If the water supply is interrupted during operation, forced water supply is strictly prohibited, and shutdown is required.

Pressure monitoring and alarm system: the design and operation of the air storage tank shall comply with the regulations of Safety and Technical Supervision Regulations for Pressure Vessels. Necessary pressure display, overpressure regulation and alarm system shall be installed, and interlocking device shall be designed if necessary.

Alarm interlocking device: large air compressor should be set according to the characteristics of equipment surge, vibration, oil pressure, water supply, shaft displacement and bearing temperature alarm interlocking device. Airdrop test shall be done before driving.

Lubricating oil and other organic matter control: air with a certain pressure has strong oxidation, and lubricating oil and other organic matter should be strictly prevented from being mixed into its internal, so as to avoid oxidation of oil and other organic substances and combustion or explosion accidents in the system.

3. operation and use

operator training: Operators must receive relevant training and have relevant technical and safety knowledge.

Inspection before use: Before operating the air compressor, you must check for any damage or malfunction. If there is a problem, it must be repaired or replaced in time. At the same time, ensure the safety of the surrounding environment, remove any debris, and keep the passage unblocked.

Wear Work Equipment: Operators must wear suitable work equipment, such as safety shoes, glasses, gloves, etc.

Follow the operation manual: when operating the air compressor, it must be operated in accordance with the operation manual provided by the manufacturer, and overload use is strictly prohibited.

Prohibit contact with moving parts: The operator is forbidden to put fingers, arms or any other body parts close to the moving parts of the air compressor to avoid injury.

Unrelated operations are prohibited: When the air compressor is running, it is forbidden to place debris on or near the machine to avoid blocking the vent or causing accidents. At the same time, it is forbidden to switch operation, adjustment or maintenance during the operation of the air compressor, unless it is carried out by professionals.

4. maintenance and repair

regular inspection: regularly check the electrical circuit, pipe connection, filter and other components of the air compressor to ensure its normal operation and safe use.

Timely maintenance: when the equipment problems, should be timely maintenance or repair. However, when performing these operations, it is necessary to ensure that the equipment has been completely shut down and carried out by professional staff.

5. Management Requirements

safety files of special equipment: if the air storage tank and pipeline in the air compressor system meet the definition of special equipment, corresponding safety technical files should be established to record the design, manufacture, use, maintenance, inspection and other information of the equipment.

Periodic inspection and scrapping: regular inspection and energy efficiency test of special equipment shall be carried out in accordance with the periodic inspection requirements of safety technical specifications. Equipment with serious accident hazards or exceeding the service life shall be scrapped and cancellation procedures shall be handled in time.

Through the implementation of the above measures, the safe operation of the air compressor can be effectively guaranteed and the occurrence of safety accidents can be reduced.
