Local exhaust ventilation thorough examination
Face velocity is the whole point of the system and it is a number you can watch every day. The 14-month examination is still the law; the continuous reading is what stops a blocked hood going unnoticed for a year.
- Condition that replaces the interval
- Partly. Static pressure or face velocity at each hood can be monitored continuously and alarmed; the thorough examination and test by a competent person stays.
- Reading that proves it
- Face velocity at the hood (m/s), duct static pressure, filter differential pressure, fan speed
- Why the interval stays
- Thorough examination and test at least every 14 months is set by COSHH regulation 9 in the UK; equivalent hazardous substances rules apply elsewhere.
- Evidence an auditor accepts
- Thorough examination report per system with the face velocity per hood against the design value
- First move
- Fit a static pressure gauge or sensor on each system and record the design value on the label next to it.
