Purpose and intended use

Since 1997, there is a new division of hazardous dusts and their assigned vacuum machines. These are regulated by IEC 60335- 2-69 (world wide) and by EN 60335-2-69 (European wide).

Dust Class M (medium). The dusts

which belong to this class are: dusts

with OEL values1) > 0.1 mg/m³ as well as saw dust. The machine is tested in its entirety by vacuums for this dust class. The maximum degree of permeability is 0.1% and the disposal must be low dust.

Dust Class H (high). The dusts which

belong to this class are: dusts with

OEL values1), all carcinogenic dusts and dusts which are mixed with pathogenic agents. Vacuums for Dust Class H are tested in their entirety and have a maximum degree of permeability of 0.005%. The disposal must be dust free.

These vacuums may be used for picking up dusts from the Dust Classes L, M and H as well as ex- plosive dusts which makes a Series

Type 22 vacuum necessary. Included in these classes are non-carcinogenic dusts with OEL values > 0.1  mg/m³ and/or flammable dusts in Zone 22.

The air flow in safety vacuum systems has to be strictly controlled to achieve a minimum flow rate of Vmin = 20 m/s in the suction hose.
