What is Flange Safety
Bolted flange connections are a potential leakage point resulting in environmental damage or personal injury. Blindspade's Flange Safety program offers a number of solutions to prevent this, and a number of products to limit the damage.
Preventing environmental damage or personal injury
SafeFlange™ (lock&tagout of flanges)
The SafeFlange™ is the first, and to our knowledge, the only system for Lock Out and Tag Out (LoTo) of flange connections. A flange secured with the SafeFlange™ cannot be removed without everyone's lock out.
Flange Labels™
Blindspades offers a unique and simple solution to keep track of the progress of work on a daily basis. And in the process, check and improve the quality of the work delivered. We present to you: The Blindspades Flange Labels™
Flens Compliance™
Compliancy is the tracking and recording of products, actions and systems. Digitizing with a QR code creates the possibility to check not only (real-time) the process steps but also whether the combination flange connection/Blindspades matches, the right quality is used, etc.. Blindspades supplies and designs the codes, your system, hardware and associated software.
Entry Blocker™
Until now, no fail-safe system existed to seal manholes against entry and ensure ventilation. By placing one or more EntryBlockers™ on the manholes of a tank or other confined space, it becomes impossible to enter the space. Despite that due to language or communication differences the signals present are not understood.
Limiting the (consequential) damage
SprayProtector
Should a flange connection fail, the SprayProtector™ offers additional protection to prevent a (dangerous) spray. The SprayProtectors can be executed with a drain so that it is clear in advance where a possible leakage will end up. At this point additional measures can be taken. SprayProtectors can be delivered in several material combinations and sizes, so for every pipe and product a suitable solution can be offered.
