Regulations for Safety Inspection of Existing Hazardous Machines and Equipment Article 17
The inspection of the existing hazardous equipment shall be implemented both internally and externally. The content of external inspection shall include visual surface examination, detections of the external corrosion, cracks, distortion, defilement and leakage on the surfaces, as well as the necessary non-destructive detection, ultrasonic thickness measurement at specified points vulnerable to corrosion, and other inspections, as required. In case a leakage is found during the external inspection stipulated in the preceding paragraph, the Inspector may request the Owner to remove the insulation enclosure on the equipment at the discretion of the Inspector's own judgment. The content of the internal inspection shall include surface examination, detections of thickness, corrosion, cracks, distortion, defilement and etc., as well as the necessary non-destructive detection and other inspections, as required. The pressure test may be used as the substitute for the internal inspection stipulated in the preceding paragraph, if the said internal inspection turns out to be difficult to be performed.However, a make-up internal inspection shall be implemented during the next coming annual overhaul of the equipment.
中文原文 既有危險性機械及設備安全檢查規則第17條
既有危險性設備檢查時，應實施外部檢查及內部檢查。
外部檢查為外觀檢查、外部腐蝕、裂痕、變形、污穢、洩漏之檢測、必要時實施之非破壞檢查、易腐蝕處之定點超音波測厚及其他必要檢查。
前項外部檢查，檢查機構如發現有洩漏等情形時，得要求事業單位拆除保溫材被覆。
內部檢查為內部之表面檢查、厚度、腐蝕、裂痕、變形、污穢等檢測、耐壓試驗、必要時實施之非破壞檢查及其他必要檢查。
前項內部檢查確有困難者，得僅實施耐壓試驗。
但應於歲修時補行實施。
