Audit of explosion-proof equipment at the customer's site

An audit is an inspection by our specialist of the entire complex of explosion-proof equipment at the facility. The inspection includes an assessment of the technical condition of various objects:  

  • equipment;
  • components;
  • individual mechanisms;
  • systems (lighting and others) and networks.

Explosion-proof equipment audits by GORELTEX specialists provide a professional assessment of equipment completeness, its technical condition, proper installation, operating conditions, and operation. We conduct audits in Russia and the CIS.

The purpose of the audit of explosion-proof equipment

Timely and regular audits of explosion-proof equipment from GORELTEX help identify equipment condition and operational errors, preventing breakdowns at the plant, resulting in equipment downtime and losses. The purpose of the audit is to assess the technical condition of production equipment and the processes associated with the operation and maintenance of explosion-proof equipment.

2. Our specialist, who has all the necessary certifications to conduct an audit, arrives at the site and checks various aspects of explosion protection:

  • compliance with correct installation;
  • operating conditions of equipment, components and various systems;
  • compliance with GOSTs;
  • the correct selection of equipment for operating conditions and loads.

3. During the audit, the auditor may perform test runs of equipment systems to obtain accurate information about its condition, as well as collect analytical data through documentation.

4. After the inspection, the specialist prepares a report in which he/she expresses recommendations regarding the validity of the technical/technological solutions used and the compliance of the technical condition of the engineering systems and equipment with the requirements of regulatory acts.
