Ventilation For Gas Cylinder Storage

In addition to requiring ventilation down to the gas storage space, large openings in the roof of an anticipatory wise in case of an accident.

 
It turned out that gas cylinders at home you need to breathe. Its lighter than oxygen and requires a high-pressure liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) are stored in a safe place. There have been many horrible cases due to the use and storage of LPG is less precise. So, let the breathing gas is free!

The three "enemies" of the main gas cylinder

Agency for assessment and implementation of technology (BPPT) in Indonesia, said there were at least three things that can cause leaks, even the explosion of the use of gas cylinders is wrong. First, the poor quality of the stove components, tubing and other accessories such as hose regulator and valve. This can be overcome by the way: do not use a hose that is too long and careful in installing the seal regulator. If the tube is not used in a long time, close the valve with a seal cap. Problem of laying gas cylinders in storage space is not vented into the second trigger the use of LPG in the accident. As a chamber that holds the dangerous element, space is generally placed under the sink or behind the kitchen set should have a special ventilation. The third trigger, a lack of public knowledge of the characteristics of LPG as well as securing the right way.

Scheme under the ventilation gas storage. Minimum-sized one and a half times the width of the tubes used. use non-flammable materials such as stainless steel.

Ventilation window multi-function security

As the "nose" of a dimension of space, ventilation not only serves as a port rotation of the air. The presence of ventilation in enclosed spaces in addition to providing a fresh breeze of air circulation, but also directly support the object I therein. Enclosed spaces that are rarely touched like a gas cylinder storage space is usually unnoticed.

Place the stove away from the position of the source water (pipeline). Marble stove to table to avoid the spread of fire.

Special ventilation tubes for gas storage space is not just the air holes. Because it stores objects that are aeraosol, ventilation should be prepared carefully. LPG is flammable and high pressure should be placed parallel to the plane around. Storage space was much more secure when away from the pipeline and exposure to direct sunlight. The most wise, give vent to the bottom door of cabinet storage space. Because the density of gas that is lighter than air, the gas will flow down near the ground. This vents the gas stream that runs beneath the air so it can be detected if there is a leak. Aside from being air circulation, ventilation also maintain the gas pressure is stable. For materials storage cabinet or room door, it is better to use non-flammable materials. Avoid the use of wood and fiberglass.
