Fire Risk Warning
In the very rare event that a burning ember or spark is
drawn into the unit, it may be possible that the filters will
ignite.
Whilst any resultant fire would typically be retained within
the unit, the damage to the unit
could
be significant. It is
therefore essential to minimise the possibility of this
occurring by undertaking an appropriate Risk assessment to
determine:-
a). Whether additional fire protection equipment should be
installed.
b). Appropriate maintenance procedures to prevent the risk
of build-up of debris which could potentially combust.
This unit should not be used on processes where sparks
could occur, with explosive dusts and gases, or with
particulates which can be pyrophoric (can spontaneously
ignite), without implementation of additional precautions
It is essential that nozzles or other extraction/ fume capture
devices and hoses/pipework are cleaned regularly to prevent
the build-up of potentially ignitable debris
