Dust Testing- ensure NFPA-compliance for safe procedures and operations

Material explosibility testing is now a REQUIREMENT of NFPA 652: Standard on the Fundamentals of Combustible Dust, and it’s vital for safe plant design, safe operating parameters, and safe handling procedures.

Dust testing is provided through Fike in their state-of-the-art, 3,000 sq. ft. combustion and research testing laboratory. A staff of highly trained technicians, engineers, and combustion scientists assure proper execution and interpretation of the results in accordance with ASTM and CEN standards.

Comprehensive Range of Dust Tests:• Dust cloud explosibility parameters (Kst, Pmax)• Dust cloud ignition limits (LOC, MEC)• Auto-ignition temperature (MAIT)• Minimum ignition energy (MIE)• Dust layer ignition temperature (MIT) • Complete documentation provided to comply with

NFPA standards
