Anti-static clothing is the safety guarantee for gas stations


Anti-static clothing has now become a special clothing for modern industrial production work, and many advantages played in industrial production have been used by more and more industries. With the continuous improvement of the production technology of anti-static clothing, the scope of use of anti-static clothing is also constantly expanding, such as: gas stations, petrochemical industry, coal mining and other industries.

Because the climate in northern China is dry, especially in winter, and when people wear or take off clothes or touch metal objects, the discharge phenomenon is very common, and the sparks generated can be seen with the naked eye; sometimes, contact between people can also produce strong Discharge, this discharge energy will exceed the energy required to detonate the gas mixture. Even if the discharge is at the fueling site, fuel vapor may be ignited. In our country, there have also been cases of static electricity igniting oil-gas mixture gas caused by friction of clothes. In the dry winter in northern China, a driver did not cover the fuel tank after refueling at the gas station. He lifted his coat and prepared to pay for it. Out of the tank mouth, fortunately, the oiler present immediately blocked the tank mouth with a damp cloth to avoid a disaster.


The danger of static electricity caused by textiles in a gas station cannot be taken lightly. The staff at the gas station should be aware of the safety of dressing due to the wide working hours and wide range of activities in the station, to prevent wearing chemical fiber clothing and wearing pure cotton inner and outer clothing. . In addition, when maintaining the equipment, do not use chemical fiber fabrics to wipe the equipment to avoid static electricity.
