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-
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
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.
