Safety measures for air compressors in coal washing plants

The relevant safety measures of air compressors in coal washing plants involve multiple aspects to ensure the safe operation of equipment and the safety of personnel. The following are some key safety measures: 1. Equipment installation safety measures

  1. Installation location selection:

    • Air compressor should be installed in a place with good ventilation, dryness, no corrosive gases, and no flammable and explosive items.
    • Avoid installing air compressors near coal piles or areas where fire sources exist to prevent fire and explosion accidents.
  2. Fixing and Protection:

    • Fixing and Protection:

      • Fixed fixing measures should be taken during installation to prevent the equipment from shaking and displaced during operation.
      • Installing protective devices at the air inlet and exhaust ports of the air compressor to prevent personnel from entering or causing mechanical failure.

2. Equipment operation safety measures

  1. Operator training:

    • Conduct necessary training for operators to become familiar with the structure, performance, operating methods and safety procedures of air compressors.
    • Operators should be certified to work, have proficient operating skills and safety awareness.
  2. Regular inspection and maintenance:

    • Regular inspection and maintenance of air compressors, including cleaning equipment, checking oil levels, fastening bolts, replacing consumable parts, etc.
    • Check whether the air compressor’s pressure gauge, safety valve and other safety accessories are intact and effective to ensure that the equipment is in normal working condition.
  3. Rational use of equipment:

    • Operators should operate according to the rated working conditions of the equipment to avoid overload operation and overtime work.
    • Please pay attention to controlling the exhaust pressure of the air compressor within a safe range to avoid excessive pressure causing equipment damage or safety accidents.

3. Emergency safety measures

  1. Develop emergency plans:

    • Develop detailed emergency plans for possible fires, explosions, mechanical injuries and other accidents.
    • Clarify the emergency response procedures and operating methods to ensure that the accident can be responded quickly and effectively.
  2. Emergency drills:

    • Conduct regular emergency drills to improveOperators’ emergency response capabilities and safety awareness.
    • Discover shortcomings and loopholes in the emergency plan through drills and revise and improve them in a timely manner.
  3. Equipment with emergency equipment:

    • Equipment necessary emergency equipment in coal washing plants, such as fire extinguishers, fire hydrants, first aid kits, etc.
    • Ensure that emergency equipment is in good condition and is regularly inspected and maintained.

IV. Other safety measures

  1. Electrical safety:

    • The electrical system of the air compressor should comply with relevant standards and specifications, be firmly grounded, and be sensitive to electric shock protectors.
    • Avoid using electrical equipment in humid environments to prevent electric shock accidents.
  2. Environmental Safety:

    • Keep the environment in the coal washing plant clean and avoid debris accumulation and water accumulation.
    • Confirm and explosive items around the equipment regularly and clean and deal with them in a timely manner.
  3. Personal Protection:

    • Operators should wear personal protective equipment that meets standards, such as hard helmets, protective glasses, earplugs, work clothes, etc.
    • It is prohibited to wear long hair, jewelry and other debris to operate the air compressor to avoid accidents.

In summary, the safety measures of air compressors in coal washing plants need to be comprehensively considered in terms of equipment installation, equipment operation, emergency treatment and other aspects. By formulating and implementing strict safety measures, the safe operation of air compressors and the safety of people’s lives and property can be ensured.
