Dust Explosion Testing Laboratory

Protecting your people, workplaces, business and the environment from an explosion, fire or other combustible dust hazard relies on the identification, mitigation and maintenance of combustible dusts. Sigma-HSE’s ISO 17025 accredited combustible dust testing laboratory offer comprehensive testing solutions with a 7-10 day turnaround to aid you in the identification and characterisation of your hazardous materials and their related risks to combustible dust explosions. We undertake the following combustible dust tests to simulate a primary dust explosion, secondary dust explosion and/or dust ignition: Dust Combustibility (Group A/B) Minimum Ignition Energy (MIE) Minimum Ignition Temperature (MIT) Layer Ignition Temperature (LIT) Explosion Severity Test (Pmax/KST) ST Classification Minimum Explosive Concentration (MEC) Limiting Oxygen Concentration (LOC) Burning Behaviour
