Which sector is affected by the risk of LPG leaks
- Filling stations (LPG bottling sites for domestic use);
- Storage areas (bulk relay, gas storage for distribution);
- The industrial sector where the LPG is stored and used as an energy source;
- Gas stations (sale of LPG as fuel).
Today, several solutions allow you to prevent the risks associated with LPG, a particularly flammable and explosive hydrocarbon. Among the most recommended solutions is the installation of gas and flame detectors. These devices will warn you in the event of abnormal gas concentrations, or the start of a fire and trigger different safety devices.
Obligations for the implementation of gas and flame detection solutions:
- Ministerial decree 4718 of 21/09/2017, for bulk relays, bottling sites, and customer facilities.
- Order of 30/08/2010 heading 1414-3, for service stations
