What safety regulations should be met when storing gas cylinders?

1, explosion-proof sun: in summer, a shed should be built to cover the bottle and prevent the direct sunlight from shining on the bottle.

2. Rain-proof: the storage point should be located in a high place to prevent the bottle from rusting due to rain and ground water.

3. Lightning protection: the storage point should be far away from lightning rods and lightning protection grounding devices of high-rise buildings, and the distance should be kept above10m.

4. Prevention of grease pollution: The storage point should be kept at a distance of more than10m from the oil storage tank and oil drum.

5. Anti-static: the storage point should be far away from overhead high-voltage lines and underground cables to prevent more accidents when cables fail.

6. Anti-heat source: the storage point should be far away from heating pipes and plates to prevent heat source radiation.

7. House collapse prevention: The storage point cannot be built near dangerous houses or temporary houses, and compressed gas cylinders cannot be stored in dangerous houses.

8. Fire prevention: the storage point shall be kept at a distance of 10 meter or more from the combustible storage point.

9. Corrosion protection: The storage point of compressed gas cylinders should be far away from substances with strong oxidation and corrosiveness, and fire fighting equipment should be set at the storage point of 3-5 meters.

Extended data

Periodic inspection

The inspection cycle of various gas cylinders is specified as follows.

1. Gas cylinders containing corrosive gases should be inspected every two years 1 time.

2. Gas cylinders filled with general gas should be inspected every 3 years 1 time.

3, liquefied petroleum gas cylinders, less than 20 years of use, 0 times every 5 years; More than 20 years, every 2 years 1 time.

4. Cylinders filled with inert gas should be inspected 1 time every 5 years.

5. Low temperature insulated gas cylinders shall be inspected every 3 years 1 time.

6. Vehicle liquefied petroleum gas cylinders are inspected every 5 years 1 time, and vehicle compressed natural gas cylinders are inspected every 3 years 1 time. When the car is scrapped, if serious corrosion, damage or doubts about its safety and reliability are found during use, it should be inspected in advance. Cylinders that have been stored and stopped for more than one inspection cycle shall be inspected before being put into use.
