Geltungsbereich und Anwendbarkeit

This standard applies to oxygen-deficient hazardous work environments and personnel protection. It covers various confined spaces, including enclosed equipment (e.g., ship holds, storage tanks), underground confined spaces (e.g., pipelines, tunnels), and above-ground confined spaces (e.g., fermentation pools, cold storage). This standard is mandatory for all operations involving potential oxygen deficiency. It classifies work into general hazardous work and special hazardous work.

Technische Anforderungen

The standard defines oxygen deficiency as an environment where the oxygen content is below 0.195 (19.5%), updating the threshold from the previous GB 8958-1988. It specifies requirements for general hazardous work, emphasizing the principle of test before work and continuous monitoring during operations. For special hazardous work where other toxic gases may be present, simultaneous testing of oxygen and harmful gases is required. Personnel must use isolated respiratory protective equipment, and the use of filter masks is strictly prohibited. Additionally, pure oxygen must not be used for ventilation, and comprehensive safety education, training, and emergency rescue plans are mandated.

Prüfverfahren

The standard requires oxygen content measurement before and during operations using calibrated and reliable analytical instruments that comply with relevant national standards such as GB 12358. For special hazardous work, simultaneous testing of harmful gases (e.g., hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, methane) is required alongside oxygen testing. Pre-surveys using test drilling methods are also mandated for tunneling or excavation operations.

Häufige Fragen

What is the oxygen concentration threshold defined as oxygen deficiency in GB 8958-2006?

The standard defines oxygen deficiency as an environment where the oxygen content is below 0.195 (19.5%), which is an update from the previous 18% threshold in the 1988 version.

What types of confined spaces are covered under this standard?

It covers enclosed equipment (e.g., ship holds, storage tanks), underground confined spaces (e.g., pipelines, tunnels), and above-ground confined spaces (e.g., fermentation pools, cold storage).

What respiratory protective equipment is mandated by GB 8958-2006?

Workers must use isolated respiratory protective devices such as air respirators or hose masks. The use of filter-type masks is strictly prohibited.
