OSHA’s permissible exposure limits (PELs) set standards for maintaining safe air quality. Neglecting dust control can result in safety issues, increased absenteeism, and decreased productivity. Implementing effective dust control systems in bulk bag dischargers creates a safer and more efficient workplace.
The Material Master®️ Bulk Bag Discharging System incorporates three levels of dust control to ensure optimal safety:
- Primary Dust Control: A dust-tight seal prevents material from escaping during discharge.
- Secondary Dust Control: Integrated dust collection systems capture fugitive dust during material flow.
- Tertiary Dust Control: Enclosures or hoods fully contain the discharge area to eliminate airborne particles. These levels work together to create a dust-free environment, demonstrating the importance of comprehensive dust control in modern manufacturing.
