Chapter 07 – Pressure Safety
The following information is useful in calculating the stored energy of a pressure system. When a gas is compressed, it stores energy. If the stored energy (U) is released in an uncontrolled manner, it may cause serious injury and/or damage. Stored energies in excess of 75,000 foot-pounds (~101 kilojoules (kJ)) are considered high hazard.
Guidelines
Stored-energy hazards occur when confined energy is unintentionally released. Sudden pressurisation or depressurisation of such stored-energy systems can result in incidents that cause serious injury or death. Attention has concentrated on pneumatic testing due to the greater potential stored energy. The common
The Misunderstood Risk of Stored Energy
And during the servicing and maintenance of machines and equipment, an unexpected startup can release stored energy and cause serious injury. The stored energy can also refer to moving parts that come into contact with each other. For example: Mechanical energy hazards from the moving parts of equipment; Gravitational stored energy hazards
ISIS Pressure Hazards
Hazards exist within pressure systems due to - The stored energy of the compressed gas and the chemical nature of that gas. Various codes of practice apply to all pressure and vacuum systems. In summary: 1. All pressurising systems must have a pressure relief device such as a bursting disc or pressure relief valve. 2.

Pressure Systems Stored-Energy Threshold Risk Analysis [electronic
The definition of a pressure system in 10 CFR 851 does not contain a limit based upon pressure or any other criteria. Therefore, the need for a method to determine an appropriate risk-based hazard level for pressure safety was identified. The Laboratory has historically used a stored energy of 1000 lbf-ft to define a pressure hazard

K6 Explain what constitutes a hazard in the workplace (such as moving parts of machinery, electricity, slippery and uneven surfaces, dust and fumes, handling and transporting, contaminants and irritants, material ejection, fire, working at height, environment, pressure/stored energy systems, volatile or toxic materials, unshielded processes).
Hand Safety – Stored Energy
Potential hand injuries associated with stored energy can include: • Hydraulic fluids under pressure. • Pneumatic energy under pressure. • Unexpected release of electrical energy. • High centre of gravity may topple a piece of equipment unexpectedly. • Pushing or pulling a wrench or tool. • Power tool binds and the energy releases.
