How to Prevent Overpressure in Paint Cans?

Pressure Gauge Inspection
1. Mandatory Verification Pressure Gauges (Class A): When used in critical equipment such as boilers and pressure vessels, the calibration cycle should be ≤6 months.
2. Non-Mandatory Verification Pressure Gauges: Class B (process control type) cycle ≤12 months; Class C (monitoring type) cycle is 1-2 maintenance cycles.
3. Household Pressure Water Tanks: It is recommended to check them every 3 months, as water hammer can easily cause gauge needle misalignment.
Safety Valve Inspection
1. Keep clean to prevent grease buildup;
2. Check the seal for integrity to prevent unauthorized adjustments;
3. Establish a regular discharge system based on the actual equipment conditions (e.g., manually discharge the safety valve of a steam boiler once a day).
Rupture Disc Device Inspection
1. Check if the installation direction is correct and if the nameplate parameters meet operating requirements;
2. Check for damage, corrosion, or deformation on the outer surface;
3. When used in series with a safety valve, check for leaks in the pressure indicator;
4. Check if the discharge pipe is unobstructed and the support is secure.
Comprehensive Explosion Protection Measures
1. Mechanical Explosion Protection: Such as industrial flame arresters and active/passive explosion-proof devices, used to prevent the spread of flames in the initial stage of an explosion.
2. Chemical Explosion Suppression: Suppressing the range of an explosion by spraying explosion suppressants; suitable for equipment where explosion vents cannot be installed.
