When an earthquake occurs, what should be paid attention to in gas safety? Is it possible to manually turn off the gas for the first time to avoid secondary damage?
The damage caused by the earthquake is fully considered in the design of the gas pipeline network, and the pipelines and facilities of the gas pipeline network have a certain seismic level during construction. In the case of small earthquake intensity, the pipeline network itself can resist earthquake. In the case of high intensity, the gas pipeline network will be equipped with various vibration-sensing automatic shut-off valves, which will automatically cut off the gas supply in the earthquake area, even if the pipeline is damaged, The leaked gas is only a small part, and the damage will not be very large.
It is worth noting that some secondary damage caused by gas after the earthquake is caused by the damage to the gas pipeline in the home and the user did not find it in time, and it was caused by using gas when returning home after the earthquake. Gas leakage, whether the pipes and gas equipment in the home are damaged, whether there is gas leakage, etc. After the earthquake, the gas company will generally organize the gas security inspection at the user's home. harm.
For the safety of gas use in the kitchen in the home environment, qualified families can install a household gas alarm, so that it can detect whether there is gas leakage in the home in real time.
The household gas alarm can remind us through the alarm whistle sound when the gas leaks, and the supporting gas emergency shut-off valve immediately cuts off the gas to prevent the gas from continuing to leak. After the ventilation measures are implemented, when the gas concentration in the detection area of the household gas alarm drops and falls below the alarm setting value, the alarm state is automatically released and the alarm returns to the monitoring state.
