Installation of industrial gas systems requires design, installation and inspection units to strictly comply with the provisions of industry standards in the field of gas (gas) and fire prevention to ensure safety. and save when using the system.
Common industrial gas supply systems:
• Gas supply system for furnaces, boilers
• LPG raw material supply system in the plastic, foam, and foam industries …
• Supply of gas (LPG) for industrial kitchens, restaurant kitchens, hotels
• Central gas system provides gas for domestic use in residential clusters or residences
When installing industrial gas systems, pay attention to the following key issues.
General requirements for industrial gas system installation
When designing and installing an industrial gas system in addition to the safe and economical use, that system must satisfy:
• The reserve must be appropriate to the demand
• There are pressure and flow rate suitable for use
• Use equipment (pipes, tanks, steam generators, pressure valves, lock valves …) in accordance with specialized standards.
• Ensuring a safe operating distance
• Units designing and installing industrial gas systems must have expertise and experience
The main equipment in industrial gas systems
Industrial gas supply systems usually have the following main equipment:
• Gas storage equipment (storage tanks, storage bottles)
• Pipelines (carbon steel pipes, copper pipes, specialized hoses, rubber or specialized plastic pipes)
• Pressure regulator
• Lock valves and control valves
Selection of equipment and materials when installing an industrial gas system must strictly comply with the requirements of specialized gas design, installation and use standards.
Gas storage (LPG) reserves
To determine an efficient industrial gas storage capacity, the design unit must:
• Determine the power consumption of the equipment using fuel as well as the demand in the future.
• The LPG supplier’s capacity to ensure continuous use.
• The storage capacity of the storage system. This determines the choice of the tank shape (evaporative surface of the tank), the number of cylinders, the additional evaporator. Determination of the steam capacity should take into account the ambient temperature in use.
• The provisions of the law (FPF) that are regulated by that locality
Industrial gas storage equipment
Choosing LPG storage equipment (tanks or cylinders) in industrial gas systems depends on:
• Installation location
• Power Consumption
• Investment cost
• Ability to satisfy gas supplier
Installation location of gas storage
When choosing the installation location of industrial gas stations, it is necessary to satisfy the provisions of law on LPG storage at the consuming place:
• Local regulations on fire prevention (fire protection)
• National and industry regulations on LPG
• Technical standards for safety in designing, installing and using LPG
• Optimization of the distance between the supply station and the last used equipment
Pressure grades on industrial gas systems
There are many levels of pressure on industrial gas supply systems (high pressure, medium pressure, low pressure). The choice of pressure levels or pressure valve clusters on industrial gas systems depends on:
• Pressure to use final equipment
• Amount to provide
• Pipe distance and size as well as resistance caused by the equipment mounted on the system
• Due to safety requirements specified by the design standard
Choosing the right pressure levels will make the system operation safer and more economical.
Fire protection systems and means
Gas is a highly explosive fuel. When designing and installing the industrial gas system, it is necessary to design an appropriate fire protection system to ensure safety for people and property when the system has an incident.
