This should be ensured technically, whenever possible. In elderly plants, organizational measures can be sufficient, provided they are of very good quality. The interruption in supplies eitsures that the hazard potential related to the maloperation remains restricted to the substance amoimt present in the reactor at the time of process disturbance. All further elaborations assume this effective interruption in supplies. 

Scenarios with class 4 characteristics must be evaluated as to whether or not the evaporation capacity provides sufficient safety. If this is not the case, additional organizational or technical measures have to be implemented.
