Further
regulations and
measures
Gas bottles
It is forbidden to take gas bottles or liquid fuel (liquid gas) into an enclosed
vessel. (e.g. welding equipment, lamps or soldering tools).
Safety harness
If it is necessary to enter an enclosed vessel in which there is a danger of
fire or of harmful work substances being present or a risk of oxygen
deficiency, the person entering the vessel should be roped up with a
safety harness.
The following points must be observed:
• The end of the rope must be secured outside the vessel.
• Each worker must be monitored by a second person outside the
danger zone.
• It must always be possible to evacuate a worker from the danger zone
without delay.
• If the only rescue route is upwards, use only approved rescue
equipment, such as cable winches or manual lifting devices.
In the presence of working substances that may ignite, rescue ropes must
either be plastic-sheathed steel ropes or ropes with at least equivalent
heat-resistance properties.
If roping up is not possible, suitable escape hatches must be available
that will allow anyone inside the vessel to climb out without assistance
from outside.
