Pig launcher, receiver and indirect bath heater

[Jyop92]

Can anybody please give me information about "minimum distance that need to be maintained between pig launcing area and indirect bath heater"

Also, please give information about any standards need to be referred or any calculation.

Thanks.

The only calls you can do are Hazardous arsa.

There are guidelines available but no standards.

Point the trap away from the heater. [pre][/pre]

Remember - More details = better answers
Also: If you get a response it's polite to respond to it.

Can you share the guidelines.

What type of indirect bath heater ? Induced draft or forced draft?

I dont have these separation distances for both cases, but typically, fired heaters are kept well away from other flammable inventories. I vaguely recall 30metres. Speak to a process safety / technical safety engineer.
