Guaranteed containment levels

Where the management of specific dust containment levels is critical to processing and to personnel safety, a range of equipment which offers guaranteed containment level of <1µg/m³ is now available from Hosokawa Stott. Significant investment in design studies and practical application tests means Hosokawa Stott can offer four separate isolator unit types designed specifically for four different bulk material handling operations, all with independently verified guaranteed minimum containment levels of <1µg/m³ (8hr TWA).

Tests carried out by independent occupational hygiene and environmental consultants Genesis Environmental 'confirmed the capability of the four separate designs of isolator to achieve and maintain airborne dust containment levels of less than 1µg/m³ of air,' said David O'Malley, managing director of Hosokawa Stott.
