Electrostatic protection measures before working in the petroleum industry
It is well known that the petroleum industry is the industry with the greatest static electricity hazard. Petroleum products and steam are dangerous flammable and explosive products. Weak spark discharge can also cause the combustion of air containing gasoline or kerosene vapor to cause an explosion. Therefore, oil workers must strictly check their dress before entering the work every time. They must be meticulous from top to bottom and from the inside to the outside to be foolproof.
In the production, storage and transportation of oil, static electricity is generated almost everywhere. For example: oil flows in the pipeline and generates static electricity on the wall of the pipe; oil flows out of the nozzle and impacts on the metal container to generate static electricity; oil droplets splash and air friction will generate static electricity; oil will generate static electricity through the filter; oil in the oil Continuous bumps in tank trucks and oil tankers. When the tank trucks are running, tires and road friction, or even pouring new oil of different specifications into the tank, will generate a lot of static electricity. Improper anti-static measures or slight negligence may cause irreparable damage.
Flammable and explosive places are extremely hazardous. Workers must wear anti-static clothes and flame-retardant work clothes, and they are forbidden to take off and take off midway. They must strictly abide by the operating rules in their work, and take the collective as a unit.
Finally, remind the majority of petroleum workers that the electrostatic protection measures must be foolproof before they are put into work to avoid losses.
