Pipeline identification on board ships is very important for safety reasons, especially for the safety of the entire crew.
The medium flowing through the the pipework can cause a lot of damage, and be dangerous to the people on board the ship during an emergency or in case of pipework damage. The appropriate marking makes it possible to identify the type of danger we are dealing with during the emegency and to take the steps to get rid of it.
The basic colours which should be used for pipeline identification on-board ships, as well as the additional ones that can be used together with main colours, have been defined by International ISO regulations.
Availability
The identification tapes are available in two systems:
Multi-colour system – tapes with the colour combination printed on it – this system is the easiest to install.
Single-colour system – tapes from which you can make any number of colour combinations by yourself, this is a more economical and flexible solution, however, the installation takes longer to complete.
Sizes: from 40mm to 150mm
Considering many size standards available on the market we can manufacture any particular size for you.
Installation
Each pipe should be marked at least once in each separate room.The best places for installing the identification tapes are: close to the objects like valves, filters or tanks, exits passing through the walls or cellings, close to the room entrances.All surfaces must be thoroughly cleaned before applying the identification tapes.During the application tape should be overlaped 3-4 cm beyond the starting edge.
