Which Industries Use Explosion Relief Doors and Hatches?
Food Processing
Food plants often handle combustible organic dust like sugar or flour. Explosion relief doors can be crucial in containing and safely venting any accidental combustion, safeguarding employees, and reducing downtime.
Woodworking & Lumber Mills
Sawdust and wood flour can become highly combustible while woodworking equipment can easily provide an ignition source. Explosion relief doors offer a controlled outlet for any explosion.
Pharmaceuticals
Solids processing in pharma can create combustible dust. Explosion relief doors are invaluable for maintaining a safe environment, especially given the sensitive nature of pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Chemical Manufacturing
Any fine chemical is prone to combustible dust events, and many common compounds can be explosive or flammable in their own right. Explosion relief doors provide a targeted release point for any overpressure.awdust and wood flour can become highly combustible while woodworking equipment can easily provide an ignition source. Explosion relief doors offer a controlled outlet for any explosion.
Metalworking
Grinding and cutting processes can produce combustible metal dust. Explosion relief doors are essential to quickly vent pressure and limit the scope of any incident, helping to avoid injury, damage, and shutdowns.
Textiles
Cotton and synthetic fibers can become airborne and create a combustible environment in mills or clothing factories. Explosion relief doors help to safely release this pressure, minimizing the risk of larger, uncontrolled incidents.
Coal Mining & Handling
Coal dust is highly combustible. Properly installed explosion relief doors are essential in processing or storage areas to reduce the impact of potentially devastating combustion events.
Plastics & Rubber Manufacturing
These industries produce fine poly-carbon particulates that can become combustible in some situations. Explosion relief doors are essential to safely vent overpressure events in any bulk-handling facilities.
Recycling Facilities
Plastic and glass recycling activities can produce several different combustible dusts in the same environment. Explosion relief doors can be calibrated to handle blast events in these mixed environments.
Agriculture
Grain silos and other bulk storage facilities present a high risk for combustible dust explosion. Installing properly calibrated explosion relief doors is essential to protecting staff, property, and valuable crops.
