Fauske & Associates, LLC
Combustible Dust and Gas & Vapor Flammability Testing
Find out if you are at risk.
We offer NFPA and OSHA Combustible Dust NEP testing services for determination of both explosion severity and ignition sensitivity per ASTM and European methods:
• Explosion Severity Test - (KSt, PMax and dP/dtMax)
• Minimum Ignition Energy (MIE)
• Minimum Explosible Concentration (MEC)
• Minimum Autoignition Temperature of a Dust Cloud (MIT)
• Hot Surface Ignition Temperature of Dust layers (LIT)
• Limiting Oxygen Concentration (LOC)
We can help you assess your risk exposure by characterizing the flammability potential of your combustible vapors or gases. Common tests are:
• Flash Point
• Sustained Burning/Combustibility (Fire Point)
• Autoignition Temperature (AIT)
• Flash and Spontaneous Ignition Temperature of Plastics
• Flammability Limits (LFL, UFL)
• Temperature Limits of Flammability (LFTL)
• Limiting Oxygen Concentration (LOC)
• Minimum Ignition Energy (MIE)
• Explosion Severity (KG, PMax)
• Heat of Combustion (HOC)
