The excavator suddenly caught fire. The machinery and equipment used by the excavator boss to make money to support his family instantly turned into ashes and lost hundreds of thousands. According to investigations, there are hundreds of units every year, and construction machinery caught fire. This total number does not include those that have not been reported by the news. It was not the excavator that burned, it was the boss's money! In order to avoid accidental losses, everyone must understand some of the excavator fire factors and how to rescue them in the event of a fire accident.
Which excavator is most prone to fire accidents?
1. Antique cars in disrepair:
Some antique cars of about ten years are in disrepair, and the hardware configuration and wires are aging. The parts are loose, and they will have changed hands several times. Perhaps they have experienced common failures that are not well known, and the performance of the car is difficult to grasp. And generally, old cars do not pay attention to cleaning, the oil stains on the outer shell are thick, if a spark is standing, it is very easy to cause a fire accident.
2. The hydraulic pipeline has safety hazards:
Some excavators have been in disrepair for a long time, the hydraulic pipelines are damaged and aging, and most of the gear oil is high in temperature. Under such circumstances, if the working pressure suddenly increases, it is very easy to cause a pipe burst. If the high-heat gear oil bursts out and sprays on the exhaust pipe, then there is a high probability of fire.
3. Excavators with modified power circuits:
Some assembled excavators arbitrarily modified the power circuit, the wires are aging, and the wiring is messy. If a short-circuit failure occurs, the flame is very easy to cause the plastic parts and fuel pipe to catch fire. It is a very common fire accident situation.
common problem:
1. The car body is kept clean and tidy without oily stains
The excavator repair center has seen that many people's excavators are very dirty, with too much oil, soil, oil waste and other compounds. Once there is a short-circuit failure, it will ignite. Diesel engine compartment and hydraulic oil pump surroundings should be cleaned and cleaned frequently to avoid dripping and leakage, and keep it clean and dry from beginning to end.
2. Cultivate good practical operation habits
The items on the top of the excavator should be sorted out, and special tools for rags should not be left at will. Drivers who smoke should put cigarette butt ash bombs into suitable areas, batteries and various hydraulic oils should be checked immediately to avoid potential safety hazards in the budding period.
3. Must pass fire extinguisher
Excavator fires are often caused by power circuits and fuel pipes. This type of fire cannot be fired with tap water. It is best to use a special smoke extinguisher. When choosing a fire extinguisher, try to choose a slightly larger one, 6-10L is best. For fire extinguishers that are not usually needed, it is best to check whether they are expired and whether the working pressure is at the target value. A bottle of fire extinguisher is only a few tens of dollars, and it can save a tens of millions of excavators at a critical moment.
