Case Analysis of Cold Storage Fire in Xinjiang

Case analysis of Xinjiang cold storage fire: The Xinjiang cold storage fire accident refers to the incident that occurred on January 20, 2019 in Fukang, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region

A fire accident in Shiyan Village. The fire resulted in 18 deaths and 5 injuries, while also causing

Huge property losses. After investigating the cause of the accident, experts have determined the cause of the fire

The main reasons are the aging of electrical circuits and improper management of cold storage.

1、 Aging of electrical circuits

During the accident investigation, the aging of electrical circuits was considered a major cause of the fire.

This cold storage is mainly used for storing food and beverages, so a large amount of electrical equipment is required.

These devices include refrigeration systems, fans, lighting facilities, and automation control systems. Long term use

Frequent operation has caused the electrical circuits of these facilities to age, resulting in insulation layer rupture and corrosion of the wires

Corrosion can easily form sparks, which can lead to fires.

2、 Improper management of cold storage

In addition to the aging of electrical circuits, another important reason is improper management of cold storage. This cold storage is

Rented by multiple companies and used independently, the management of the cold storage is quite chaotic. Enterprise

In the process of using cold storage, different refrigeration equipment and accessories are used, and safety hazards are compared

High. This cold storage is composed of multiple rooms, which also causes inconvenience and safety hazards in management.

3、 Other factors

In addition to the above two factors, there may also be other factors that may have caused this fire. For example,

The location of the fire is in a highly concentrated logistics park, where the wind direction and speed also vary

Has an impact on the spread of the fire. In addition, the bad weather at that time affected the firefighting operations of the fire department,

Delayed the rescue speed of the fire.

In summary, the main causes of cold storage fires in Xinjiang are aging electrical circuits and improper cold storage management

The occurrence of this accident also reminds us to pay attention to the safety management of equipment when using such facilities

Management and maintenance. Strengthen management standards, establish relevant operation guidelines, and regularly inspect equipment

Maintenance and upkeep are essential to effectively ensure the safety of people's lives and property.
