Improved industrial safety can start with something as small as a speck of dust, in fact. RSBP’s proprietary Combustion Test Lab offers comprehensive explosibility dust testing, providing invaluable data that ultimately helps protect lives and assets. Contact our team today to receive your dust test results in as few as two weeks.
The Combustion Test Lab provides empirical evidence to factories, chemical plants, grain elevators, paper mills and more about the explosibility characteristics of their facility’s dust. Our testing may come in a 20 liter chamber which is designed to provide accurate measurements that represent real-world, industrial-sized applications
Contact Elva’s experienced consultants about your facility and types of processed dust.
Collect and ship a sample of your facility’s dust to the Combustion Test Lab.
In as few as two weeks, receive an ASTM- and CEN-standard report that details the dust’s explosive properties.
This data may be used to support explosion protection product integration into your facility.
