From Dust Extraction to Personal Protection and Disposal
|
|
| First the dust extraction unit itself. Take care that the air flow direction is away from the workers, either below or to the side. Our picture clearly shows this. The efficiency of a dust extraction unit can be optimised through various technical measures and construction. Let us advise you. We aim to help you and will support you in your endeavours to optimise a secure working area. |
| For short term work without dust extraction especially for maintenance personnel fine masks of the class FFP2S (EN 149*) or masks with particle filters of the class PS2 (EN 140* and EN 143*) are to be used. A suppliers list can be requested from HOFFMANN MINERAL.
For the cleaning of the workplace, machines and equipment, an industrial vacuum cleaner must be used. The industrial vacuum cleaner which is used must comply to the relative security requirements and be fitted with a filter of < 1%.
The disposal of empty bags should take place in a dust extraction unit. This applies also for the packing together of the empty big bags. A further possibility for the cleaner disposal of the big bags would be extracted using a industrial vacuum cleaner. This will enable the empty bags to be pressed together virtually dust free.
