When selecting and installing explosion-proof membranes for portable fuel tanks, it is necessary to start with adaptability, safety and standardization to ensure the protective effect:
1. Correctly select explosion-proof membranes
Material matching: oil-resistant and high-temperature resistant polycarbonate or aramid explosion-proof membranes are preferred to avoid chemical reactions with fuel; metal mesh explosion-proof membranes must be free of rust and sharp burrs to prevent scratches on the inner wall of the fuel tank.
Specification adaptation: Customize explosion-proof membranes according to the volume and shape of the fuel tank to ensure that the internal space is fully covered; if it is a split design, the joints of each component must fit tightly without gaps.
Certification standards: Select explosion-proof membrane products that have passed international safety certifications such as UL 142 and FM to ensure that they meet the explosion-proof grade requirements and have reliable flame retardant and explosion suppression performance.
2. Standardized installation process
Preliminary preparation: Completely empty the fuel tank before installation, use a special cleaning agent to remove residual fuel and impurities, and fully ventilate and dry; wear protective gloves and goggles to prevent the explosion-proof membrane from scratching the skin.
Precise installation: slowly place the explosion-proof membrane into the fuel tank to ensure that it fits tightly against the inner wall; if it is a split type, use a high temperature and oil resistant sealant to fix the joints to prevent displacement.
3. Inspection and testing:
After installation, inject a small amount of clean water into the fuel tank to check whether the explosion-proof membrane is floating, deformed or leaking; if a metal mesh explosion-proof membrane is used, use insulating materials to detect whether there is a short circuit risk.
