What safety problems should be paid attention to when contacting nitrogen

Nitrogen is a colorless, tasteless and odorless inert gas. It is harmless to human body, but when the nitrogen content in the air increases, it reduces the oxygen content, making it difficult to breathe. If pure nitrogen is inhaled, it will be asphyxiated due to severe hypoxia and cause death.

In order to avoid the increase of nitrogen content in the air in the workshop, nitrogen separated from the air separation plant shall not be discharged indoors. When there is a large amount of nitrogen, you should wear an oxygen respirator. When overhauling nitrogen charging equipment, vessels and pipelines, air shall be used to replace them, and the operation shall be allowed only after the oxygen content is qualified. During maintenance, the nitrogen valve shall be supervised to prevent personal accidents caused by opening the valve by mistake.

The research rooted in and practiced in the field of air separation is a professional research and development, manufacturing, installation of various complete sets of air separation equipment, focusing on the pressure and challenges faced by customers, and is good at providing customers with the most competitive air separation project design scheme. DEAR gas mainly produces conventional gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide, etc. Provide users with timely and accurate technical support, find possible problems as early as possible, and handle them in a timely manner.

1. Before filling with pearlite, the water accumulated on the foundation surface of air separation unit must be removed, dried with hot air, and all manholes shall be closed. 2. When filling pearlite, all containers and pipes in the cold box should be inflated and kept at 50kPa pressure, then slightly open the valve of each meter pipeline, and all thermometers should be electrified to check whether the thermometer cable is damaged during the filling process. 3. The filled pearlite shall not be mixed with combustibles. 4. When filling with pearlite, coarse mesh or pearlite pouring device should be set at the manhole on the top of the cold box to prevent whole bag pearlite from entering the cold box. 5. After the pearlite is filled, the manhole shall be sealed.
