Nitrogen Purging Job Safety Analysis

This document provides a job safety analysis for purging and flushing using nitrogen gas. The key steps are: 1) Mobilizing materials and tools, which presents slip/trip hazards and risks of falling materials or hand injuries. Proper supervision, barricading, and securing of materials is required. 2) Preparing the work site, which involves ensuring energized equipment is isolated, nitrogen cylinders are depressurized, and flammable/toxic atmospheres are tested for. Hoses must be inspected. 3) Purging with nitrogen gas, which risks hose or coupling rupture from improper rating/pressure, supplying too much or too little nitrogen, and unsafe disposal of purged fluids.

Basic Steps Potential Hazards Controls


1. Mobilization of Materials & Tools Slips and tripping hazard Proper barricading to avoid any trips & slips
Material Falling Proper arrangement of all materials
Hand Injury Secured all materials, substances or chemicals before transporting
from one point to another
Manual handling Provide essential and proper supervision for the workforce and
follow ergonomically precautions while doing manual
handling.
2. Site Preparation for the Work Activities Energized Equipment Ensure the equipment, device and or machinery system to be
extermination is positively isolated from all sources of
energy such as hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical mechanisms
etc.)
Nitrogen Cylinders / Unit Ensure the equipment, device and or machinery system is
depressurized & content is drained securely.
Flammable & / or Toxic Atmosphere Carry out the gas test for safe working area
Hose failure Inspection of hoses before the connection
Tripping hazard Clear Clear the working area for access to avoid slip. Trip fall
3. N2 Purging Rupture of Nitrogen Supply Hoses & Make Make ure that the N2 supply hoses and couplings are rated for the
Couplings required service and pressure
Excess or Less Nitrogen Supply CalculCheck the amount of N2 needed for the volume to be purged.
Unsafe Disposal of Purged Fluid UsWeWear proper PPE to handle the waste
