Purpose and intended use
Since 1997, there is a new division of hazardous dusts and their as-
signed vacuum machines. These are regulatedby IEC 60335-2-69
(world wide) and by EN 60335-2-69 (European wide)
Dust class H (high). The dusts which belong to this class are:
dusts with OEL values
*)
, all carcinogenic dusts and dusts
which are mixed with pathogenic agents. Vacuums for Dusts
Class H are tested in their entirety and have a maximum degree of
permeability of 0.005%, The disposal must be dust free.
Dust class M (medium). The dusts which belong to this class
are: dusts with OEL values
*)
> 0.1 mg/m
3
as well as sawdust.
The machine is tested in its entirety by vacuums for this dust
class. The maximum degree of permeability is 0.1% and the dis-
posal must be low dust
The air flow in Safety Vacuum systems has to be strictly controlled to
achieve a minimum flow rate of Vmon = 20 m/s in the suction hose.
*) OEL values = Occupational Exposure Limit
