In collision repair facility, repairs result in the creation of dust and particles. Unlike drilling and grinding which produces coarse dust particles, sanding produces fine dust. Certain metals such as Aluminium, besides being a floating contaminant, are highly explosive when in a particulate or powder-like form. Apart from being highly combustible in air, it can also cause explosions if mixed with other compounds such as Iron Oxide (rust) and magnesium. Rust is highly likely to be found in repair areas and aluminium fumes are toxic to the workers. Aside from the hazardous environment aluminium dust creates, exposing the aluminium vehicles and parts to steel dust and particles causes cross contamination which results in potential damage and galvanic corrosion. Therefore, it is essential to install an aluminium repair isolation workstation. USI Lab is a dedicated, well-ventilated area for Aluminium, composites and mixed materials. The ATEX certified contamination free area is designed to handle explosive dust while offering the following features:
