The first easyFairs Solids Handling: Processing: Storage event ran at the Reebok Stadium in Bolton last week: over six hundred high quality visitors attended the event
Using real-life examples reinforced with high impact visuals and video footage Declan will cover the five main aspects of explosion protection.
1) The introduction of ATEX 137 (equipment in explosive atmospheres) has had a huge impact on technology making many systems obsolete.
All new plant has had to be certified under ATEX 95 and 137: Have yours?.
2) Are explosion protection systems now all about features and price rather than design and reliable operation?.
3) Analysis of the latest explosion venting systems including the flameless venting products.
4) Delivering higher safety integrity levels through the latest computerised explosion suppression products.
5) The positive impact of the ATEX risk and hazard assessment has reduced the incidents of explosions due to negligent work practices, creating a more informed and safer workforce.
