Explosions are a serious risk in any industrial setting, and compliance with dust explosion regulations is an important part of your health and safety risk assessment.
The weakest point for the potential escape of these explosive flames and gases is often at the transitions, between equipment. Traditional hose clamp flexible connectors tend to give-way quickly allowing the explosion to propagate, potentially leading to a deadly secondary explosion. Choosing a strong, dust-proof and explosion resistant connector like the BFM® fitting is fundamental to both preventing and containing any explosions that might occur within a process system.
