Q&As

We have multiple dust collectors, filter-receivers, bins, and silos throughout our facility that handle a mixture of food dust from various processes. We’ve tested these materials and they were all classified as St1* combustible dusts. All of the equipment is properly protected with explosion vents or flameless vents, but we understand that each system will also require explosion isolation to safely protect against a combustible dust explosion. I’m curious as to what isolation options are available for our facility?
