Safety protection is of utmost importance during the construction and operation of a temperature calibration laboratory. Firstly, in terms of electrical safety, since there are a large number of electrical equipment in the laboratory, such as temperature calibrators, constant temperature baths, data loggers, etc., it is necessary to ensure the correct laying of electrical wiring and grounding protection. Regularly check the insulation performance of electrical equipment to prevent leakage accidents. All electrical equipment should be equipped with leakage protection switches, which can quickly cut off the power supply in case of leakage and ensure the safety of personnel.
For heat protection, as high-temperature calibration equipment and heating processes are involved, operators may face the risk of scalding. Therefore, high-temperature equipment should be marked with obvious warning signs and equipped with protective devices, such as heat shields and guardrails. Operators must wear appropriate protective gloves, work clothes and other personal protective equipment when performing high-temperature operations, and should receive relevant heat safety training to be familiar with the operating procedures and emergency treatment methods of high-temperature equipment.
Chemical reagent safety is also a key concern. If some chemical reagents are required during temperature calibration, such as standard substance solutions used for calibrating certain special thermometers, these reagents must be properly stored and used. Reagents should be stored in a special reagent cabinet, classified and stored according to their chemical properties, and equipped with corresponding safety protection facilities, such as fume hoods and eyewashers. Operators must strictly follow the operating procedures when using chemical reagents to avoid dangerous situations such as reagent leakage, accidental ingestion or skin contact.
In addition, the laboratory should also formulate comprehensive fire safety measures. Equip a sufficient number of fire extinguishers, fire hydrants and other fire-fighting equipment, and conduct regular fire drills to ensure that all personnel are familiar with fire escape routes and the use of fire-fighting equipment to deal with possible fire accidents and ensure the safety of laboratory personnel and property.
