Our occupational hygienists can assist with local exhaust ventilation testing for your workplace.
Is your Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) system effective at removing contaminates?
Are your workers trained in the correct use to ensure exposures are controlled?
Do you have certification for your LEV system to show that it is effective at removing contaminates?
Good maintenance and regular testing ensures that existing LEV systems continue to remove contaminates in the air before people breathe them, meaning a safer workforce and cleaner environment. It is a legal requirement that any employer who uses LEV to control dust, fumes and vapour must ensure it is operating effectively and is serviced by skilled professionals, and that’s where we can help.
We are specialists in providing comprehensive LEV testing services to employers who use LEV to control dust, fumes and airborne contaminations, ensuring workers health is protected.
Test reports clearly and concisely identify all measurement results along with schematic diagrams of individual systems to identify test point locations and recommendations for remedial action deemed necessary to ensure the continued effectiveness of the system.
This report will conclude with a clear statement as to whether the ventilation system achieved or did not achieve the desired standard and provide effective solutions to resolve any issues that are identified.
Where applicable the following methods of investigation / measurement are made on each system:
- Face and/or Capture velocity
- Duct velocity / Static pressure
- Smoke generator / Tindell light beam visual assessment
- Fan / Filter pressures
- Internal inspection of filtration and collection plants
