Our UK laboratory generates flammable & explosive test data for your combustible dusts and powders to aid in characterising, preventing, protecting and mitigating combustible dust explosions and fire hazards.

We undertake the following combustible dust tests to simulate a primary dust explosion, secondary dust explosion and/or dust ignition:

• Dust Combustibility (Group A/B)

• Minimum Ignition Energy (MIE)

• Minimum Ignition Temperature (MIT)

• Layer Ignition Temperature (LIT)

• Explosion Severity Test (Pmax/KST) ST Classification

• Minimum Explosive Concentration (MEC)

• Limiting Oxygen Concentration (LOC)

• Burning Behaviour

Please contact us if you have any bespoke combustible dust or powder testing requirements, or if you require consultancy services related to powder and combustible dust explosion safety.
