WARNING
FIRE HAZARDS
1. Wood shaping and cutting processes generate wood chips, shavings and dust. These materials are considered combustible.
Air borne wood dust below 420 microns in size (0.017 of an inch) in certain concentration ranges when ignited can
deflagrate (burn quickly). An ignition source such as a spark or ember can ignite a dust mixture resulting in an expanding
flame front, which can cause an explosion if tightly contained. A disturbance that raises a cloud of accumulated fine dust can
raise additional dust clouds, which can cause a series of explosions that can level an entire building. Until this type of fire has
been witnessed, it is difficult to believe the devastation. This type of fire is rare but worth safeguarding against.
2. The best way to avoid a wood shop fire is to keep the shop clean. A shop ankle deep in dust with layers of fine dust
everywhere is an accident waiting to happen. A good dust collection system reduces overall fire hazards but also adds new
concerns. A fire hazard is still present. Combustible material is now in the dust collector and storage container.
3. The following points are worth heeding:
a. It is the buyer’s responsibility to follow all applicable federal, state, local, OSHA, NFPA, or authorities having jurisdiction
codes and regulations when installing and operating this dust collector.
b. Fire Marshals may want the unit located outside of the building. If the collector is located inside the facility, controls
such as spark detection, suppression, or explosion venting may be required.
c. Most local jurisdictions consult or adopt NFPA (National Fire Protection Agency) codes. However, other codes may
apply. Local codes may vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
d. NFPA664 Code book, “Standard for the Prevention of Fires and Explosions in Wood Processing and Woodworking
Facilities”, applies to woodworking operations that occupy areas of more than 5,000 sq. ft. or to areas where dust
producing equipment requires an aggregate dust collection flow rate of more than 1,500 cfm (cubic feet per minute).
This exempts some small operators from the NFPA code 664, but other codes may apply in your jurisdiction. Consult
MAKE SURE TO READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS AS
WELL AS ALL RECOMMENDED SAFETY PRACTICES.
