    Sample collection means ofprotection when working in thefield of wastewater treatmentplants

    Appl ication o f this Sample collection

    The Section"Disposal" of the Federation the Accident Insurers (BUK) has this

    collection of examples of sewage systems that were previously in the Blue Print(07/2000) listed under point 4.1 in the current collection of examples of the

    explosion protection regulations, created as a separate booklet. *)

    You gives the entrepreneur a help, its obligation under 5 of the operating

    instructions (air) comply dividing hazardous areas into zones.

    Explosionsschutzmanahmen

    Forto determine the nature and extent of the measures in potentially hazardous

    areas is to Annex 4 of the Ordinance on Industrial Safety and the

    "Explosion protection rules - (EX-RL) "(GUV-R 104) referenced. This can for

    example under the In-ternet www.hvbg.de be viewed at BGR 104th

    For some common key terms here the definitions (see 2 of the Ordinance on

    Industrial Safety and Section B of the "explosion protection rules") stated:

    ExplosionsfhigeAtmosphere:

    Explosive Atmosphereist is a mixture of air and flammable gases, vapors, mists or

    dusts under atmospheric conditions in which the combustion process after ignition

    transfers to the entire unburned mixture ( 2 (8) Industrial Safety Ordinance).

    Note: As atmospheric conditions apply Here total pressures from 0.8

    bar to 1.1 bar and the mixture temperature of -20 C to +60 C.

    *) The above version 07/2000 has been amended slightly editorial. Furthermore, were the No.

    ExplosiveAtmosphere:

    Explosive atmosphere (pea) is an explosive atmosphere occurring in such amount

    (danger threatening amount) that special protective measures for themaintenance of protection of safety and health of workers or others are required

    ( 2 (9) Reliable safety regulation).

    Imminent DangerQuantity:

    More than 10 liters of explosive atmosphere as cohesive group have to beconsidered in closed rooms, regardless of the room size is always a hazardousexplosive atmosphere. Smaller quantities can already be potentially hazardous if,

    when they are in close proximity to people. Even in periods of less than about 100m3 already a smaller amount than 10 liters must be regarded as hazardous. A

    rough estimate can be made by the rule of thumb that in such rooms explosive

    atmosphere by more than a ten-thousandth of the space volume must be

    considered as potentially hazardous if, eg ina space of80 m3 8 liters. However, this does not infer that

    then the entire space as a hazardous applies, but only part of the area, may occur

    in which an explosive atmosphere (see Section 1.3.4.1 of the explosion E-rule

    [GUV-R 104, previously GUV 19.8]).

    that special protective measures are needed shall not be considered a hazardous

    area ( 2 (10) Betriebssicherheitsver Regulation).

    Ztions classification of hazardousAreas

    The following zoning applies to areas where arrangements set out in 3, 4 and

    6 of the Ordinance on Industrial Safety must be taken. This classification

    provides the scope of the aforementioned measures to be taken according to

    Annex 4, section A Regulation.

    ExplosionsgefhrdeteRanges of frequency and duration of the occurrence of an

    explosive atmosphere in zones:

    Zone 0 is an area in which an explosive atmosphere consisting of a mixture

    of air and flammable gases, vapors or mists or for long periods or

    frequently.

    Zone 1 ist is an area where at times during normal operation form an explosive

    atmosphere as a mixture of air and flammable gases, vapors or mists.

    Zone 2 is an area in which under normal operation a dangerous explosive

    atmosphere as a mixture of air and flammable gases, vapors or mists

    or not normally occurs only briefly.

    Zone 20 is an area that constantly in the explosive atmosphere in the form of

    a cloud of combustible dust in the air for long periods or frequently.

    Zone 21 ist is an area where at times during normal operation form anexplosive atmosphere in the form of a cloud in the air corresponds

    The following sample collection may be used as a decision aid for classifying

    potentially explosive areas into zones.

    Sample collection(Excerpt from the foreword the explosion protection regulations)

    The listed in each example measures are taken into account for the normal

    operation, but also failures. They can serve as decision support in the selection of

    the nature and extent of the measures for the prevention of explosion hazards.

    For first and repeated startup and shutdown of a plant and the explosion

    protection in common areas available via openings to hazardous areas in

    conjunction, special considerations apply.

    Under Section D 1 the explosion protection rules "basis for the assessment of the

    risk of explosion", the decision of whether and how likely an explosive

    atmosphere may occur, given off by the circum-stances and must always refer to

    this particular case. Therefore, when applied to investigate the collection of

    examples, always check to be assessed in the case matches the occurrence of

    an explosive atmosphere in the amount and the probability with which the

    example of the underlying facts of the matter.

    Deviations from the Sample collection requirements specified in the amendments

    to the zone or its extension is possible.

    In the sample collection zone expansions are given in column 5 in meters. It is

    assumed that the g.e.A. approximately spherical shape around the discharge

    point, wherein the outlet point is propagated to see-as the center of the sphere

    radius. Possible deviations are especially mentioned. Proximity is the imme-diate

    vicinity of the discharge point. The radius of the immediate area is 0.5 m.

    For surface sources the zone is usually caused by an envelope with

    Verrundungsradius specified.

    GUV-I 8594

    In cases where hazardous areas (zones) measures to E 1 of the explosion

    protection regulations (GUV-R 104, previously GUV 19.8) are reduced or

    eliminated, consider the following:

    In the opinion of the Technical Committee"Chemistry", Subject "Explosion"

    mentioned in column 5 of the sample collection extensions of zones shall be

    used optimally for the measures to E 1 (column 4). This should be considered

    in the required assessment of the individual case.

    Particularly clearly this issue is by applying the protective measure

    "Technical ventilation" (Section 1.3.4.2 E of explosion protection rules

    [GUV-R 104, previously GUV 19.8])

    Wie shown in Section E 1.3.4 of explosion protection rules, an optimal design

    of the ventilation system is possible only if the expected maximum amount

    leaking substances and the other conditions are known or can be estimated

    reliably.

    In the examples, referring only to the vicinity of the equipment, the interior of the

    apparatus requires a separate assessment.

    The e specified in sections 1.3.1 to 1.3.3 of the e explosion protection rules

    prerequisites of explosion protection must always be met, and they are not in

    the examples mentioned.

    Notes to tables:

    FirstIn the presence mentioned in column 2 of the plant or processes in column

    3 shall different apparatus or process-related conditions or features orcomments occur [a), b), c), ..., 1, 2, 3, ...]. Among these points is indicated to

    what extent the occurrence of a hazardous explosive atmosphere (pea) is

    expected.

    Second For the case that, with g.e.A. must be calculated, is mentioned in column

    4 whether in the plant protection measures by E 1 (Avoid explosive atmos-

    phere) are applied.

    Third Can safeguard measures as E 1 (column 4) are not or not fully carried out,

    are protective measures to E 2 (Avoidance of ignition sources), depending on

    the applicable zone, necessary.4th Is avoiding g.e.A. and no ignition sources in accordance with the respective

    zone possible, protective measures for E 3 (Constructive explosion

    protection) necessary and indicated in column 6.

    The TLV is generally two to three orders of magnitude below the lower explosion

    plosionsgrenze (LEL). If increased health reasons technical measures must be

    carried out in areas the probability of occurrence and the extent of a potential

    explosive atmosphere are indeed significantly reduced, an at least briefly

    exceeded the LEL can there-by but not always be excluded. This is especially

    true for dust when dust deposits can form. To that fact in the collection of

    examples of the explosion protection regulations referenced.

    Explanation of the example used in the collectionAbbreviations

    no Protective measures to E 1, E 2 and E 3 are not required. gR

    Protective measures for e 2 are carried out throughout the room.

    Expansion The Numerical data for the extension of the zone is always in meters

    to

    zones vpurchase. Provided that no particular form of words From the

    geometric expansion of the zone is made, the number means the

    radius of a sphere around the source for the formation of explosive

    atmospheres (exit point of flammable substances or the like).

    g.e.A explosiveAtmosphere.

    b) as a) means in column 3 (features, comments / conditions) the same factsas in a) specified. In column 4, but another protective measure is

    provided and thus investments in column 5 in a different zoning than

    a); may they can even be omitted.

    Note:

    Since October2002 is the BRE rules "health and safety" restructured and provided with

    new names and part numbers. In coordination with the Main Association of theprofessional trade association publications were all the categories of "safetyregulations", "r ules for safety and health," "Information" and "princip les" category.

    In upcoming revisions or reprints the publications to the new names and part numbersare changed. Thereby facilitating a transition period of approximately 3 to 5 years, thenew order numbers the previous order number i s added.

    Furthermore, the transition to the new name and numbering of a so-called transfer listare removed, including the is published in the document directory and on the websiteof the Federation of Accident Insurance (www.unfallkassen.de).
