Any employer who uses local exhaust ventilation (LEV) to
control dust, fume, vapour etc. must ensure that it is
operating effectively and is in good repair. It is your
legal obligation to ensure a formal examination and
test of the LEV system every 14 months.
Our examination, testing and records are carried out in
accordance with the requirements of Regulation 9 of the
Control of Substances Hazardous to Health regulations (COSHH).
The
measurements taken are compared with the criteria for
performance for ventilation systems given in HSG258
“Controlling
airborne contaminants at work: A guide to local exhaust
ventilation”.
Our engineers
are qualified to British Occupational Hygiene Society (BOHS)
P601 standard -
Initial Appraisal and Thorough Examination & Testing of
Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) Systems. As stated in
HSG258 the people who test your LEV systems must be P601
qualified - many other companies are not qualified to carry
out testing.
If your LEV does not perform
satisfactorily (and some do not, often through poor initial
design or inappropriate additions) we can prepare a free
engineering report to evaluate the design and performance of
the equipment and make recommendations for improvement.
We operate a dedicated team of Inspection Engineers
throughout the U.K who are trained
specifically to inspect and test any items of Local Exhaust
Ventilation (LEV) plant for you, whether supplied and
installed by ourselves or other suppliers.
We deal with equipment in a range of facilities from schools and colleges to small workshops,
garages and through to large industrial and commercial
premises.
