Abstract

Apparatus for preventing fluid spray at a leakage area of a fluid pipe comprises at least one first enveloping element and at least one second enveloping element which encloses the fluid pipe so as to be flush with it, and which are circumferentially interrupted, wherein the circumferential interruptions of the enveloping elements are arranged so as to be offset relative to each other. In this way, fluid spray formation may be prevented in an economical way. The simple design ensures easy installation and economical production.
