Project Details

hello. This is MJ from RS Korea. Today's blog post is about the installation. This installation site is the agricultural and marine product market wastewater treatment plant. Like other wastewater treatment plants, this is a place where all wastewater and debris, such as water used in the market or ice used to keep fresh fish, are collected in one place. Purpose of installation

This wastewater treatment plant is located underground and is classified as a closed space, so it had to measure the five major gases, O2, CO, CO2, H2S, and LEL, which must be measured in closed spaces according to the Occupational Safety and Health Act. In the process of treating seafood wastewater, H2S gas was generated at more than 10ppm, so a gas meter and electronic signboard were requested for the safety of workers. What is H2S? H2S is the chemical formula of hydrogen sulfide. Hydrogen sulfide is a gas that smells like eggs. Because it is classified as a toxic gas, it is a deadly gas to the human body that if inhaled even in small amounts can cause difficulty breathing, nausea, vomiting, and in severe cases, death. Because it is an invisible harmful gas, we must be especially careful. 

 ㅣPre-installation work Safety training before installation

Prior to installation, the installation was carried out after safety training as it was an installation work done in an enclosed space and a site with toxic gases that are harmful to the human body. We visit the installation site during the on-site inspection and re-confirm the planned installation points before proceeding with the construction.

The initial location of the electronic signboard was on the left wall of the lobby. We tried to move it from the left wall to the front, but we thought it would be better for construction site officials to see more easily, so we decided to move it to its original location, on the left wall of the lobby.

This display board work was carried out to display the measured values ​​of two FIX800 devices on one display board. ㅣIntroduction of installation products

The product to be installed today is FIX800, an installation type gas meter from WANDI, a gas meter specialist brand. The FIX800 gas meter uses military-grade high-strength aluminum, allowing it to be used even in harsh environments. In order to apply to various environments, it is possible to use the pump and suction type by using an adapter (optional) as well as inserting a pipe with a thread (M45*15).

FIX800 is capable of various outputs. Supports various outputs such as 400mA, RS485, and 2 relay outputs. It allows various responses to on-site risks and makes it easy to manage measurement data.

More than 40 types of gas are supported, allowing various gases to be installed as needed in the field. When ordering, the buyer can also choose the unit notation. FIX800 can measure up to 5 gases simultaneously. A total of 4 gas slots are provided, and when dual sensors are installed, up to 5 gases can be measured and displayed simultaneously.※ For a list of gases that can be installed on FIX800, please visit the following URL. https://www.rs-korea.com/shop/goods_view.php?gno=326&mtype=all&cate1=83&cate2=95ㅣInstallation work

In addition to the H2S gas, there was a strong odor, so after opening the door, work continued for 30 minutes and then took a 5-minute break while ventilating at intervals.

This is a photo after completing installation of FIX800 and electronic signboard. He said he plans to install not only a gas meter but also an automatic ventilation system to ensure the safety of workers. ㅣAfter installation

After completing the installation work, we were asked to check whether the FIX800 was measuring gas properly, so we returned with the G2000 demo equipment. The values ​​from FIX800 were cross-validated against the calibrated demo equipment. In addition, we have provided maintenance training and alarm tests.ㅣFinish: This site is a closed space, and H2S (hydrogen sulfide), a toxic gas harmful to the human body, is generated during the treatment of marine product wastewater, so FIX800 was installed for safety purposes. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the five major gases O2, CO, CO2, H2S, and LEL must be measured in confined spaces. To prevent accidents, we recommend installing a gas meter. In addition to simple product sales, RS Korea is a gas-specialized company that provides self-calibration/domestic repair (A/S)/production/delivery/installation work. We provide 1:1 customized solutions for gas measurement environments based on our experience conducting demonstration / inspection / delivery / repair / installation work in various environments.
