What is intrinsic safety?

In-depth promotion of the construction of intrinsic safety is an important measure for the safe development of many power companies.So what exactly is intrinsic safety, and how to understand safety and intrinsic safety will be the key to our successful completion of this work.

Intrinsic safety, in a narrow sense, refers to the safety performance of machines and equipment themselves.When the system fails, the machine and equipment can automatically prevent operation errors or cause accidents; even due to human operation errors, the equipment system can automatically exclude, switch or stop operation safely, thus ensuring the safety of people, equipment and property.Broadly speaking, it refers to the security embodied by the system of "man-machine-ring-pipe".To put it simply, by optimizing resource allocation and improving its integrity, various hazard factors are always under control, making the entire system safe and reliable, and gradually approaching the security goal of long-term stability.

Intrinsic safety mainly consists of four parts.

(1) Human safety and reliability.No matter what the operating environment and conditions are, it can be operated according to the procedures to prevent the "three violations" and achieve individual safety.

(2) The safety and reliability of objects.No matter in the dynamic process or the static process, the thing is always in a state that can operate safely.

(3) The security and reliability of the system.In daily safety production, no major accidents will occur due to unsafe behavior of people or unsafe conditions of things, and a safety system of "complementary man-machine and man-machine contract" will be formed.

(4) Management norms and continuous improvement.By standardizing the system and scientific management, we can eliminate management mistakes and achieve zero defects and zero accidents in production.

Among them, the intrinsic safety of human beings is pre-requisite, guiding and fundamental compared to the intrinsic safety of things, systems and institutions.status.It includes two basic meanings, one is that people have a need for safety in nature, and the other is that people can achieve safe production of systems and individual positions without accidents through education and guidance and institutional constraints.The popular explanation is: to be safe, to be safe, to be safe, that is, to have independent safety concepts, to have sufficient safety skills, and to have safe results under the guarantee of a reliable safety environment. Production managers and operators.

Intrinsic safety runs through the entire process of our work. In order to promote the overall management improvement of the enterprise, we must do a good job of intrinsic safety, and we must start from organizational management,All aspects such as hidden danger investigation and governance, risk management and control, emergency response, team quality, technological innovation and other aspects will comprehensively improve the ability of intrinsic safety.There is no dead angle in all-round management and control. Only in this way can we ensure the healthy and sustainable development of the enterprise.

Safety is the premise and foundation of all work, and intrinsic safety is an inevitable requirement for in-depth safety work, and a fundamental solution to ensure safety.
