2 Sealing conditions:Free of obvious oil, water or gas leakage.
3 Pipe laying:Reasonable layout and orderly arrangement.
4 Sound insulation and thermal insulating material laying:Uniform thickness, solid bound, relatively smooth surface.
5 Covering with paint:Uniform coating, free of holiday, scaling, obvious wrinkled skin or gas bubble, basically consistent color.
6 Walking board, ladder and rail:Firmly fastened and free of obvious appearance defects.
7 Welds:With relatively uniform weld ripples, and welding slag and spatter has been basically cleaned up.
8 Notches:Free of slag.
9 Protection of finished products:The equipment is free of defect and the exposed machined surface shall be well protected.
10 Civilized construction:The construction site shall be orderly under the management, and no construction waste shall be found around the equipment.The above items shall be randomly inspected with at least ten points to be inspected.
2.0.12 The acceptance records for installation quality of steel-making mechanical equipment shall conform to the following requirements:
1 The quality acceptance of subdivisional works shall be recorded according to Appendix A of the Code.
2 The quality acceptance of sub-unit works shall be recorded according to Appendix B of the Code.
3 The quality acceptance of unit works shall be recorded according to Appendix C of the Code.
4 The no-load test run of equipment shall be recorded according to Appendix D of the Code.
2.0.13 In case the quality of works does not conform to the requirement, the works shall be not only immediately dealt with or reworked, but also subject to acceptance over again.
2.0.14 As for the works whose quality does not conform to the requirement and still cannot meet the safe use requirement after treatment or rework, the acceptance must not be performed to it.
