Safe extraction of asbestos dust - protection for people and the environment
Asbestos dust is one of the greatest health hazards in the industry. The fine fibers can penetrate deep into the lungs and cause serious illnesses such as asbestosis or lung cancer. For this reason, the extraction and disposal of asbestos is subject to strict legal regulations.
Requirements for extraction technology for asbestos
To ensure the safe and legally compliant removal of asbestos dust, industrial vacuum cleaners must meet the following requirements:
- Testing in accordance with TRGS 519 – The Technical Rules for Hazardous Substances (TRGS 519) define the safety measures for handling asbestos.
- Dust class H/asbestos – Appliances in this class must have a maximum filter permeability of 0.005 %.
- Exhaust air routing to the outside – If the power exceeds 1,200 watts, the exhaust air must be routed out of the work area to prevent contamination of the room air.
