Cryogenic vessels - Static vacuum insulated vessels - Part 2: Operational requirements (ISO 21009-2:2015)

ISO 21009-2:2015 specifies operational requirements for static vacuum insulated vessels designed for a maximum allowable pressure of more than 50 kPa (0,5 bar). It may also be used as a guideline for vessels designed for a maximum allowable pressure of less than 50 kPa (0,5 bar). ISO 21009-2:2015 applies to vessels designed for cryogenic fluids specified in ISO 21009‑1. Static cryogenic vessels are often partly equipped by the manufacturer, but may be installed or re-installed by another party, such as the operator, user or owner. NOTE 1 For the installation of these vessels, additional requirements can apply; these are defined in specific regulations. NOTE 2 Some requirements of this standard can be covered by local regulations, e.g. safety distances, occupational safety and health. Where there is a conflict between the requirements of this International Standard and any applicable local regulation, the local regulation always takes precedence.

Kryo-Behälter - Ortsfeste vakuumisolierte Behälter - Teil 2: Betriebsanforderungen (ISO 21009-2:2015)

Dieser Teil der ISO 21009 legt Betriebsanforderungen für ortsfeste vakuumisolierte Kryo-Behälter fest, die für den Betrieb mit einem maximal zulässigen Druck von über 50 kPa (0,5 bar) ausgelegt sind. Sie kann auch als Richtlinie für Behälter mit einem maximal zulässigen Druck von weniger als 50 kPa (0,5 bar) verwendet werden.
Dieser Teil der ISO 21009 gilt für Behälter für tiefkalte Fluide, wie in EN 21009-1 festgelegt.
Ortsfeste Kryo-Behälter werden oft teilweise vom Hersteller ausgerüstet, können jedoch von anderer Seite, wie Betreiber, Anwender oder Eigentümer aufgestellt oder wieder aufgestellt werden.
ANMERKUNG Es können zusätzliche Anforderungen an die Installation dieser Behälter gelten; diese sind in spezifischen Vorschriften festgelegt.

Récipients cryogéniques - Récipients fixes isolés sous vide - Partie 2: Exigences de fonctionnement (ISO 21009-2:2015)

ISO 21009-2:2015 spécifie les exigences de fonctionnement pour les récipients cryogéniques fixes isolés sous vide, conçus pour une pression maximale admissible supérieure à 50 kPa (0,5 bar). Elle peut également être utilisée comme guide pour les récipients conçus pour une pression maximale admissible inférieure à 50 kPa (0,5 bar). ISO 21009-2:2015 s'applique à des récipients conçus pour des fluides cryogéniques tels que spécifiés dans l'ISO 21009‑1. Les récipients cryogéniques fixes sont souvent partiellement équipés par le fabricant, mais ils peuvent être installés ou réinstallés par une autre partie, comme par exemple l'opérateur, l'utilisateur ou le propriétaire. NOTE 1 Pour l'installation des récipients en question, des exigences supplémentaires peuvent s'appliquer ; elles sont définies dans des réglementations spécifiques. NOTE 2 Un certain nombre d'exigences relatives à la présente norme peut être traité par les réglementations locales, par exemple, distances de sécurité, sécurité et santé au travail. En cas de conflit entre la présente Norme internationale et toute réglementation locale applicable, la réglementation locale prévaut toujours.

Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of

electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are

described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the

different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not

constitute an endorsement.

For an explanation on the meaning of ISO specific terms and expressions related to conformity

assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical

Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary information

Cryogenic vessels — Static vacuum insulated vessels —
Part 2:
Operational requirements
1 Scope

This part of ISO 21009 specifies operational requirements for static vacuum insulated vessels designed

for a maximum allowable pressure of more than 50 kPa (0,5 bar). It may also be used as a guideline for

vessels designed for a maximum allowable pressure of less than 50 kPa (0,5 bar).

This part of ISO 21009 applies to vessels designed for cryogenic fluids specified in ISO 21009-1.

Static cryogenic vessels are often partly equipped by the manufacturer, but may be installed or re-

installed by another party, such as the operator, user or owner.

NOTE 1 For the installation of these vessels, additional requirements can apply; these are defined in

specific regulations.

NOTE 2 Some requirements of this standard can be covered by local regulations, e.g. safety distances,

occupational safety and health. Where there is a conflict between the requirements of this International Standard

and any applicable local regulation, the local regulation always takes precedence.

2 Normative references

The following referenced documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document

person authorized by the applicable regulations
4 Personnel training

Only persons trained for the specific task shall be allowed to install, put into service, fill, handle, operate

or maintain the vessel and its equipment.
The training programme shall include
— normal operating procedures;
— product and hazard identification;
— safe operating limits;
— emergency procedures;

— physical and chemical properties of the vessel’s contents and their effects on the human body;

5 General safety requirements
5.1 General
Identification labels and plates shall not be removed or defaced.

Appropriate warning signs regarding product and operational hazards and personnel protective

equipment requirements shall be displayed.

Parts under pressure shall be disconnected only if they have been previously depressurized.

All surfaces which may come in contact with the product shall be kept free from oil and grease. For

cleanliness requirements, see ISO 23208.

Leaking valves or connections should be depressurized before rectification. When this is not possible,

leaking valves under pressure shall be tightened using suitable tools and procedures. Direct flame or

intense heat shall never be used to raise the pressure or de-ice frozen components.

Valve outlets shall be kept clean, dry and free from contaminants.

Vessels and their accessories shall not be modified without proper authorization.

5.2 Safety considerations

In all operations and training, the following safety considerations shall be taken into account:

— Small amounts of cryogenic fluids will produce large volumes of vaporized gas. Spillage of oxygen can

result in an oxygen-enriched atmosphere; spillage of other cryogenic fluids can result in an oxygen-

deficient atmosphere. Provision is to be made for appropriate measures for this, e.g. ventilation.

— Due to the possibility of cold embrittlement, cryogenic fluids shall not come in contact with materials

(metals or plastics) which are not suitable for low temperatures.

— Because of their extremely low temperatures, cryogenic fluids will produce cold burns when

coming in contact with the skin. Cold burns can also be produced from contact with uninsulated

equipment and pipe.

— Oxygen enrichment due to liquefaction of ambient air can occur on the cold surfaces of uninsulated

equipment which contain fluids with a boiling point lower than that of oxygen.
6 Installation
6.1 General requirements

Vessels shall be installed and operated in such a way, that employees or third parties are not endangered.

Necessary minimum safety distances shall be observed; see also Annex A.
Vessels shall be installed so that the name plate is easily readable.

The installation should allow inspection of vessels on all sides. All vessel controls shall be capable of

being operated safely.

Vessels shall be installed in such a way that their filling operation can be carried out safely and easily.

Vessels shall be erected in such a way that no inadmissible misalignment or inclination can occur due to

— the actual foundations;
— the inherent mass of the vessel including its contents;
— external forces, e.g. seismic loads, wind loads.

---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
SIST EN ISO 21009-2:2016
ISO 21009-2:2015(E)
Gas from pressure-relief devices or vents shall be discharged to a safe place.

Appropriate warning signs regarding product hazards shall be displayed, e.g. in rooms, areas, or on

vessels. The operating instructions shall also refer to the properties of the gas.

Vessels shall be installed in locations where there is sufficient ventilation such that the formation of

dangerous explosive gas-air mixtures or an oxygen-deficient/-enriched atmosphere is avoided.

Vessels shall be installed in such a way that adequate space is provided for maintenance and cleaning,

as well as for emergency cases.

The space for maintenance and cleaning should be at least 0,5 m around the installation.

Vessels shall not be installed in corridors, passages or thoroughfares, generally accessible lobbies, stair-

wells or near steps. Vessels should not be installed close to the aforementioned areas if traffic routes,

escape routes or accessibility are limited.
Access by unauthorized persons should be prevented.

The area/foundation under vessels, as well as below detachable connections and fittings to the liquid

phase of the vessel of oxidizing gases, shall be of non-combustible materials and free of oil, grease and

other flammable contaminants.

Consideration shall also be given to the need for similar precautions for liquid-hydrogen or liquid-

helium installations where significant air liquefaction may occur around uninsulated equipment.

NOTE To prevent a risk of brittle fracture, consideration should be given to the design temperature

of the installation downstream of the installed or fitted vaporizing system and low temperature cut-off

systems, if necessary.
6.2 Outdoor installation
Vessels should be installed outdoors.
The drainage of surface water from the place of installation shall be ensured.

On sloping sites, an installation (e.g. a wall) may be necessary to prevent gas from penetrating over the

place of installation down into lower rooms, ducts, shafts or air intakes.

Vessels and their components shall be protected against mechanical damage, e.g. by vehicle buffer bars,

enclosures, safety distances. The protection of vessel supports against leaking cryogenic fluid should

be considered.
6.3 Indoor installation

If reasonable attempts to install the vessel outdoors fail, an indoor installation is permitted. Indoor

installation shall comply with the following safety precautions.

The entrance of rooms in which vessels are installed shall be labelled. Reference shall be made to the

relevant hazards of the gas.
Rooms shall:
— have self-closing doors, where these do not lead directly outside;

— consist of materials which are fire resistant or non-combustible, with the exception of windows and

other closures of apertures in external walls;
— be separated from other rooms and have a fire resistance up to 30 min;

— be separated from rooms normally occupied by the public in a gas-tight manner and without

any apertures;

Predgovor

Mednarodna organizacija za standardizacijo (ISO) je svetovna zveza nacionalnih organov za standarde

(članov ISO). Mednarodne standarde ponavadi pripravljajo tehnični odbori ISO. Vsak član, ki ga zanima

področje, za katero je bil ustanovljen tehnični odbor, ima pravico biti zastopan v tem odboru. Pri delu

sodelujejo tudi mednarodne vladne in nevladne organizacije, povezane z ISO. V vseh zadevah, ki so

povezane s standardizacijo na področju elektrotehnike, ISO tesno sodeluje z Mednarodno

elektrotehniško komisijo (IEC).

Postopki, uporabljeni pri pripravi tega dokumenta, in postopki, predvideni za njegovo nadaljnje

vzdrževanje, so opisani v Direktivah ISO/IEC, 1. del. Posebna pozornost naj se nameni različnim

kriterijem odobritve, potrebnim za različne vrste dokumentov ISO. Ta dokument je bil pripravljen v skladu

z uredniškimi pravili Direktiv ISO/IEC, 2. del (glej www.iso.org/directives).

Opozoriti je treba na možnost, da je lahko nekaj elementov tega dokumenta predmet patentnih pravic.

ISO ne prevzema odgovornosti za ugotavljanje katerekoli ali vseh takih patentnih pravic. Podrobnosti o

morebitnih patentnih pravicah, ugotovljenih med pripravo tega dokumenta, bodo navedene v uvodu in/ali

na seznamu patentnih izjav, ki jih je prejela organizacija ISO (glej www.iso.org/patents).

Morebitna trgovska imena, uporabljena v tem dokumentu, so informacije za uporabnike in ne pomenijo

podpore blagovni znamki.

Za razlago pomena specifičnih pojmov in izrazov ISO, povezanih z ugotavljanjem skladnosti, ter informacij o

tem, kako ISO spoštuje načela Mednarodne trgovinske organizacije (WTO) v Tehničnih ovirah pri trgovanju

(TBT), glej naslednji naslov URL: Foreword - Supplementary information.
Za ta dokument je odgovoren tehnični odbor ISO/TC 220, Kriogene posode.

Ta druga izdaja standarda razveljavlja in nadomešča prvo izdajo (ISO 21009-2:2006), ki je bila tehnično

revidirana.

ISO 21009 sestavljajo naslednji deli pod skupnim naslovom Kriogene posode – Stabilne, vakuumsko

izolirane posode:
‒ 1. del: Konstruiranje, izdelava, pregledi in preskusi
‒ 2. del: Zahteve za obratovanje
---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
SIST EN ISO 21009-2 : 2016
Kriogene posode – Stabilne, vakuumsko izolirane posode – 2. del: Zahteve za
obratovanje
1 Področje uporabe

Ta del standarda ISO 21009 določa zahteve za obratovanje stabilnih, vakuumsko izoliranih posod,

konstruiranih za največji dovoljeni tlak, ki presega 50 kPa (0,5 bar). Uporablja se lahko tudi kot smernica

pri posodah, konstruiranih za največji dovoljeni tlak, ki ne presega 50 kPa (0,5 bar).

Ta del standarda ISO 21009 velja za posode, konstruirane za kriogene fluide, ki so opredeljeni v ISO

21009-1.

Stabilne kriogene posode pogosto delno opremi proizvajalec, vendar jih lahko namesti ali znova namesti

druga oseba, na primer upravljavec, uporabnik ali lastnik.

OPOMBA 1: Za namestitev teh posod lahko veljajo dodatne zahteve; te so določene v posebnih predpisih.

OPOMBA 2: Nekatere zahteve tega standarda so lahko določene v lokalnih predpisih, npr. varnostne razdalje, varnost in

zdravje pri delu. V primeru neskladja med zahtevami tega mednarodnega standarda in katerimkoli veljavnim

lokalnim predpisom ima lokalni predpis vedno prednost.
2 Zveze s standardi

Naslednja referenčna dokumenta sta v celoti ali delno nepogrešljiva pri uporabi tega dokumenta. Pri

datiranih sklicevanjih velja samo navedena izdaja. Pri nedatiranih sklicevanjih velja najnovejša izdaja

dokumenta, na katerega se sklicuje (vključno z vsemi dopolnili).
ISO 23208 Kriogene posode – Čistoča za obratovanje v kriogenem območju

SIST EN ISO 21009-2 : 2016
3.6
varnostna razdalja

najmanjša razdalja, ki ločuje del opreme od nevarnosti, povezane z njo, ter s tem omili učinek

najverjetnejše predvidljive nesreče in prepreči, da bi manjša nesreča prerasla v večjo

Opomba 1: Varnostne razdalje se določijo tudi zato, da se zagotovi zaščita pred predvidljivim zunanjim vplivom (npr. cesta,

plamen) ali dejavnostjo zunaj upraviteljskega nadzora (npr. mejno območje obrata ali mesta, kjer se nahaja

stranka).
3.7
izpust plina

uhajanje plina zaradi obratovalnih pogojev ali okvar, ki jih ni mogoče razumno izključiti

Opomba 1: Do izpusta plina zaradi obratovalnih pogojev lahko na primer pride na odzračevalnih vodih in vodih za

razbremenitev tlaka.

Opomba 2: Do uhajanja plina zaradi okvar, ki jih ni mogoče razumno izključiti, lahko na primer pride v primeru prekomerne

napolnitve, okvare fitingov, nezadostne pritrditve priključkov, napak v delovanju in netesnosti.

3.8
posoda

toplotno izolirana posoda, namenjena uporabi z enim ali več kriogenimi fluidi v stacionarnem stanju

[VIR: ISO 21009-1, 3.19, spremenjen: Izraz je v tem dokumentu spremenjen v kratko obliko "posoda".]

3.9
pooblaščena oseba
oseba, pooblaščena v skladu z veljavnimi predpisi
4 Usposabljanje osebja

Posodo in njeno opremo smejo nameščati, dajati v uporabo, polniti, upravljati ali vzdrževati samo osebe,

usposobljene za te posebne naloge.
Program usposabljanja mora obsegati:
‒ običajne postopke delovanja;
‒ prepoznavanje proizvoda in nevarnosti;
‒ omejitve varnega delovanja;
‒ postopke za ravnanje v nujnih primerih;

‒ fizikalne in kemijske lastnosti vsebine posode ter njihove učinke na človeško telo;

‒ osebno varovalno opremo (npr. varnostne čevlje, očala, rokavice).

Usposabljanje je treba po potrebi ponavljati in obnavljati znanje, da se zagotavlja ustrezna

usposobljenost osebja. Voditi je treba zapise o usposabljanju, v kateri so navedene informacije, ki jih je

prejelo osebje.
5 Splošne varnostne zahteve
5.1 Splošno
Identifikacijskih oznak in ploščic se ne sme odstranjevati ali jih poškodovati.

Nameščeni morajo biti ustrezni opozorilni znaki v zvezi z nevarnostmi, povezanimi s proizvodom in

obratovanjem, ter navedene zahteve glede osebne varovalne opreme.

Deli pod tlakom se smejo odklopiti le, če so bili predhodno tlačno razbremenjeni.

---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
SIST EN ISO 21009-2 : 2016

Vse površine, ki bi lahko prišle v stik s proizvodom, morajo biti brez olj in masti. Za zahteve glede čistoče

glejte ISO 23208.

Iz puščajočih ventilov ali priključkov je treba pred popravljanjem sprostiti tlak. Kadar to ni mogoče, je

treba puščajoče ventile pod tlakom priviti z ustreznim orodjem in postopki. Za dvig tlaka ali odtajanje

zamrznjenih delov se nikoli ne sme uporabljati neposredni plamen ali intenzivna toplota.

Izhodi ventilov morajo biti čisti, suhi in brez onesnaževal.
Spreminjanje posod in njihove opreme ni dovoljeno brez ustrezne odobritve.
5.2 Varnostni vidiki

Pri vseh postopkih in usposabljanju je treba upoštevati naslednje varnostne vidike:

‒ majhne količine kriogenih fluidov proizvedejo velike količine uparjenega plina. Pri razlitju kisika

lahko pride do nastanka ozračja, obogatenega s kisikom; pri razlitju drugih kriogenih fluidov lahko

nastane ozračje s pomanjkanjem kisika. Za te primere je treba določiti ustrezne ukrepe, npr.

prezračevanje;

‒ zaradi možnosti razvoja krhkosti zaradi nizkih temperatur kriogeni fluidi ne smejo priti v stik z

materiali (kovinami ali plastičnimi masami), ki niso primerni za nizke temperature;

‒ kriogeni fluidi lahko ob stiku s kožo zaradi svoje ekstremno nizke temperature povzročijo ozebline.

Do ozeblin lahko pride tudi pri stiku z neizolirano opremo in cevmi;

‒ na hladnih površinah neizolirane opreme, ki vsebuje fluide z vreliščem, nižjim od vrelišča kiska,

lahko pride do obogatitve s kisikom zaradi utekočinjenja zraka okolice.
6 Namestitev
6.1 Splošne zahteve

Posode je treba namestiti in upravljati tako, da zaposleni ali tretje osebe niso ogroženi. Upoštevati je

treba najmanjše varnostne razdalje; glejte tudi dodatek A.
Posode morajo biti nameščene tako, da je napisna ploščica lahko čitljiva.

Namestitev naj omogoča pregled posod z vseh strani. Omogočeno mora biti varno upravljanje vseh

nadzornih točk posode.
Posode morajo biti nameščene tako, da je omogočeno varno in enostavno polnjenje.

Posode morajo biti postavljene tako, da ne more priti do nedopustne neporavnanosti ali nagiba zaradi:

‒ samih temeljev;
‒ lastne mase posode, vključno z njeno vsebino;
‒ zunanjih sil, npr. obremenitve pri potresni dejavnosti, vetru.

Plin iz naprav za razbremenitev tlaka ali oddušnikov je treba odvesti na varno mesto.

Nameščeni morajo biti ustrezni opozorilni znaki o nevarnosti proizvoda, npr. v prostorih, na območjih ali

posodah. V navodilih za uporabo morajo biti navedene tudi lastnosti plina.

Posode morajo biti nameščene na lokacijah, kjer je zagotovljeno zadostno prezračevanje, da ne pride

do nastanka nevarnih eksplozivnih zmesi plina in zraka ali ozračja, obogatenega ali osiromašenega s

kisikom.
---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
SIST EN ISO 21009-2 : 2016

Posode morajo biti nameščene tako, da se zagotovi ustrezen prostor za vzdrževanje in čiščenje ter tudi

za nujne primere.
Okrog nameščenih posod naj bo vsaj 0,5 m prostora za vzdrževanje in čiščenje.

Posode ne smejo biti nameščene na hodnikih, prehodih ali prometnicah, splošno dostopnih vežah,

stopniščih ali v bližini stopnic. Posode naj ne bodo nameščene v bližini zgoraj omenjenih območij, če so

prometne poti, izhodi v sili ali dostopnost omejeni.
Prepreči naj se dostop nepooblaščenim osebam.

Območje/temelji pod posodo ter pod odstranljivimi priključki in fitingi posode za oksidativne pline v tekoči

fazi morajo biti iz negorljivih materialov ter brez olj, masti in drugih vnetljivih onesnaževal.

Razmisliti je treba tudi o potrebi po podobnih previdnostnih ukrepih za utekočinjeni vodik ali utekočinjeni

helij, kjer lahko v okolici neizolirane opreme pride do večjega utekočinjanja zraka.

OPOMBA: Da se prepreči lom zaradi krhkosti, naj se upošteva temperatura, za katero je bila naprava konstruirana, za

vgrajenim ali nameščenim uparjalnim ali prekinitvenim sistemom, ki se aktivira ob nizkih temperaturah, kadar je

to potrebno.
6.2 Namestitev na prostem
Posode naj bodo nameščene na prostem.
Zagotoviti je treba drenažo površinskih voda z mesta namestitve.

Na nagnjenih lokacijah bo morda treba namestiti objekt (npr. zid), da se prepreči uhajanje plina z mesta

namestitve v nižje ležeče prostore, odtoke, jaške ali odprtine za dovod zraka.

Posode in njihovi sestavni deli morajo biti zaščiteni pred mehanskimi poškodbami, npr. z odbojniki za

vozila, ogradami, varnostmi razdaljami. Razmisli naj se o zaščiti podpornikov posode pred uhajanjem

kriogenega fluida.
6.3 Namestitev v zaprtem prostoru

Če razumni poskusi namestitve posode na prostem ne uspejo, je dovoljena namestitev v zaprtem

prostoru. Pri namestitvi v zaprtem prostoru je treba izpolnjevati naslednje varnostne previdnostne

ukrepe.

Vhod v prostor, v katerem so nameščene posode, mora biti označen. Navesti je treba ustrezno

nevarnost, ki jo predstavlja plin.
Prostori morajo:
‒ imeti vrata, ki se zapirajo sama, kjer ta ne vodijo neposredno ven;

‒ biti izdelani iz materialov, ki so požarno odporni ali negorljivi, razen oken in drugih zapiral za

odprtine v zunanjih stenah;
‒ biti ločeni od drugih prostorov in imeti požarno odpornost do 30 min;

‒ biti ločeni od prostorov, ki se običajno uporabljajo v javne namene, in sicer tako, da so neprepustni

za plin in nimajo nobenih odprtin;

– imeti ustrezno prezračevanje – pri ocenjevanju zahtev glede prezračevanja je treba upoštevati

izpust plina pri prelivnem ventilu.

Uvesti je treba previdnostne ukrepe/postopke, da se zagotovi, da osebje, ki vstopa v prostor oziroma se

v njem zadržuje, ni izpostavljeno nevarnemu ozračju.

SIST EN ISO 21009-2 : 2016

Prostori, v katerih so nameščene posode, se ne smejo uporabljati na noben drug način, ki bi lahko

predstavljal nevarnost za posodo zaradi mehanskih učinkov, požara ali eksplozije.

Vsi priključki za polnjenje, odvodi za cevi, merilniki tlaka, merilniki nivoja tekočine in oddušniki, potrebni

za varno polnjenje posode, morajo biti speljani na varno lokacijo na prostem. Vsi odvodi naprav za

razbremenitev tlaka morajo biti speljani na varno lokacijo na prostem. Vsi cevovodi morajo biti združljivi

z ustrezno plinasto in tekočo fazo fluida in brez konstrukcijskih omejitev, ki bi vplivale na varno delovanje

posode.

Vse naprave za razbremenitev tlaka morajo biti konstruirane za delovanje v zaprtem prostoru.

V prostorih ne sme biti:
‒ odprtin za dovod zraka za prezračevanje drugih prostorov;
‒ odprtih kanalov;
‒ odprtin vodov, nezaščitenih pred prodiranjem plina;
‒ odprtih jaškov;
‒ odprtin do nižje ležečih prostorov.
6.4 Varnostne razdalje

Najmanjše varnostne razdalje niso predvidene, da bi zagotovile zaščito pred katastrofalnimi dogodki ali

večjimi izlivi; te naj se obravnavajo drugače, da se njihova pogostost in/ali posledice zmanjšajo na

sprejemljivo raven.
Varnostne razdalje obsegajo:

‒ razdaljo med posodo in sosednjimi napravami, stavbami ali javnimi cestami, da se posoda zaščiti

pred poškodbami, kot je pregrevanje zaradi požara ali mehanska poškodba;

‒ razdaljo med posodo in predmetom zunaj naprave, ki mora biti zaščiten pred učinki izpusta plina,

do katerega pride pri normalnem obratovanju.

Te razdalje se merijo od tistih točk na posodi, pri katerih lahko pri normalnem načinu obratovanja pride

do izpusta plina, npr. odzračevalno mesto, polnilni priključek, prirobnice in drugi mehanski spoji.

Varnostna razdalja je razdalja, zunaj katere je:
‒ v primeru vnetljivih plinov odpravljena nevarnost zaradi
