This article will interpret the safety standards of bundle pullers for safety engineers and purchasers, helping them better understand and evaluate the safety of equipment, ensure personal safety and equipment performance.

 Relevant safety standards

Bundle puller safety standards mainly include:

1.National standards (GB):

2.GB/T 14414-2004 "Safety Regulations for Lifting Machinery": This standard stipulates the overall safety requirements for lifting machinery, including design, manufacture, installation, inspection, use, maintenance, and scrapping.

3.GB 2844-2010 "Safety of Machinery - General Technical Conditions for Hydraulically Driven Machinery": This standard stipulates the safety requirements for hydraulically driven machinery, including requirements for the hydraulic system, control system, and protective devices.

4.GB/T 12998-2014 "General Technical Conditions for Safety of Industrial Electrical Equipment": This standard stipulates the safety requirements for industrial electrical equipment, including requirements for electrical insulation, ground protection, short-circuit protection, and overload protection.

5.Industry standards (JB):

6.JB/T 8524-2007 "Safety Specifications for Bundle Pullers": This standard formulates specific safety specifications for bundle pullers, including requirements for design, manufacture, use, maintenance, etc.

7.International standards (ISO):

8.ISO 12100:2010 "Safety of Machinery - General Principles - Risk Assessment and Risk Reduction": This standard stipulates the general principles of machinery safety, including methods for risk assessment and risk reduction.

9.ISO 4413:2014 "Hydraulic Systems - Safety Requirements": This standard stipulates the safety requirements for hydraulic systems, including design, manufacture, installation, inspection, use, maintenance, and scrapping.

I Key points of bundle puller safety design

1.Mechanical structure safety:

2.Strength and stiffness: The structure must be able to withstand the weight of the tube bundle and various loads during the operation process to ensure the strength and stiffness of the structure and avoid problems such as breakage and deformation.

3.Stability: The structure must be stable to prevent tipping or instability and ensure the safety of the equipment and operators.

4.Material selection: Select high-strength and corrosion-resistant materials to ensure the durability of the equipment and avoid accidents.

5.Hydraulic system safety:

6.Overload protection: An overload protection device is provided to cut off the hydraulic oil source in time when the hydraulic system is overloaded to avoid damage to the hydraulic system or safety accidents.

7.Pressure relief protection: A pressure relief valve is provided to automatically relieve pressure when the hydraulic system pressure is too high to prevent damage to the pipeline or equipment.

8.Leakage control: The hydraulic pipeline must be well sealed to prevent hydraulic oil leakage, causing pollution or fire accidents.

Electrical safety:

Insulation protection: Electrical equipment must be reliably insulated to prevent electric shock accidents.

Ground protection: Electrical equipment must be reliably grounded to avoid electric shock accidents.

Short-circuit and overload protection: Corresponding protection devices must be set to avoid fires or equipment damage caused by short circuits or overloads.

Safety devices:

Emergency stop button: An easily accessible emergency stop button is provided to quickly stop the equipment in case of an emergency.

Safety guard: A safety guard is provided to isolate the dangerous area and prevent the operator from touching rotating mechanical parts or high-temperature parts.

Safety indicator light: A safety indicator light is provided to clearly display the running status and dangerous area of the equipment to improve safety.

Safety operation regulations:

Develop operating procedures to standardize the operation process of operators and prevent operational errors.

Regularly conduct safety training for operators to improve their safety awareness and operation skills.

II Purchasing considerations

1.Check the product certificate of conformity and relevant certificates: Ensure that the equipment meets national and industry safety standards and obtains the corresponding certificates.

2.Learn in detail the technical parameters of the equipment: Focus on safety performance indicators, such as clamping force, working speed, safety protection devices, alarm systems, etc.

3.Inspect the strength of the equipment manufacturer: Choose a supplier with a good reputation, strong technical strength, and a complete after-sales service system to ensure the quality of the equipment and after-sales service.

4.Sign a detailed contract: Specify the equipment specifications, safety standards, after-sales service, and responsibility definition to avoid future disputes.

IV. Summary

The safety of bundle pullers cannot be ignored. Safety engineers and purchasers need to carefully study the relevant safety standards, understand the key points of equipment safety design, and strictly review the performance and quality of the equipment to ensure the safe and reliable operation of the bundle puller, ensure personal safety and equipment performance, and provide safety guarantees for industrial production.
