Determining the explosion parameters in the design of dust collection systems
Dust analysis by Keller sets matters straight
As a result of EU guideline ATEX 137, system operators of machines at risk of explosion are required to determine and evaluate the risk of explosion by filing an explosion protection document. To fulfill this requirement it is frequently necessary to determine explosive dust parameters, among other issues, for the suitable design of dust collection systems. Keller is capable of providing the necessary support for the evaluation of the explosion hazard, the detection of the explosive parameters and establishing explosion protection measures with interrelated service packages.
