BS EN 15051-2:2013EN 15051-2:2013 (E) 4 Introduction This European Standard gives details of the design and operation of the rotating drum test method that classifies the dustiness of solid bulk materials, in terms of health-related fractions. A dustiness classifi

21、cation is presented to provide users (e.g. manufacturers, producers, occupational hygienists and workers) with information on the potential for dust emissions when the bulk material is handled or processed in workplaces. It provides the manufacturers of bulk materials with information that can help

22、to improve their products. It allows the users of the bulk materials to assess the effects of pre-treatments, and also to select less dusty products, if available. It is envisaged that different branches of industry might develop their own classification schemes using experimentally determined dusti

23、ness values of the bulk materials of interest. Although this European Standard does not discuss the analysis of dust released from bulk materials (except in terms of health-related fractions), the test method produces samples with the potential for chemical analysis of the contents. This European St

24、andard was developed based on the results of the European project SMT4-CT96-2074 “Development of a Method for Dustiness Testing” (see 1). This project investigated the dustiness of 12 bulk materials, with the intention to test as wide a range of bulk materials as possible, i.e. magnitude of dustines

25、s, industrial sectors, chemical composition and particle size distribution. Meanwhile the method has been applied to investigate the dustiness values of more than 220 different bulk materials. BS EN 15051-2:2013EN 15051-2:2013 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the rotating drum test app

26、aratus and associated test method for the reproducible production of dust from a bulk material under standard conditions, and the measurement of the inhalable, thoracic and respirable fractions of this dust, with reference to existing European Standards, where relevant (see Clause 6). This method is

27、 suitable for general bulk material handling processes, including all those processes where the bulk material is dropped, or can be dropped. It differs from the continuous drop method presented in EN 15051-3 in this European Standard, the same bulk material is repeatedly dropped, while in EN 15051-3

28、, the bulk material is dropped only once, but continuously. Furthermore, this European Standard specifies the environmental conditions, the sample handling and analytical procedures, and the method of calculating and presenting the results. A classification scheme for dustiness is specified, to prov

29、ide a standardised way to express and communicate the results to users of the bulk materials. This European Standard is applicable to powdered, granular or pelletised bulk materials. A standard sample volume is used. This European Standard is not applicable to test the dust released when solid bulk

30、materials are mechanically reduced (e.g. cut, crushed) or to evaluate handling procedures for the bulk materials. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the

33、his document, the terms and definitions given in EN 1540 and EN 15051-1 apply. NOTE In particular, the following terms of EN 1540 are used in this document: airborne dust, collected sample, dustiness, inhalable fraction, respirable fraction, thoracic fraction and health related fractions. 4 Requirem

34、ents 4.1 General The test procedures described in EN 15051-1:2013, Clause 5 shall be applied. BS EN 15051-2:2013EN 15051-2:2013 (E) 6 4.2 Condition of the bulk material The bulk material shall be delivered in air-tight containers and shall be tested in the state in which it was received (moisture co

35、ntent, particle size distribution, etc.). 4.3 Sample and environmental control Bulk materials that have a large specific surface area are sensitive to environmental conditions such as relative humidity, temperature and electrostatic effects. Additionally, the bulk materials moisture content, compact

36、ion, agglomeration etc. will have an influence on the results of the dustiness measurements. Therefore, for accurate results the test atmosphere shall be within a narrow range of temperature and humidity. In all cases the environmental conditions shall be documented. The following test conditions sh

37、all apply: relative humidity (RH): (50 10) %; temperature: (21 3) C; The test apparatus shall be electrically grounded. NOTE In many cases, a separate determination of the particle size can be valuable. 4.4 Moisture content The moisture content of the bulk material shall be determined and documented

38、 according to the procedure given in EN 15051-1:2013, 5.4 and Annex A. 4.5 Bulk density The bulk density of the test material shall be determined and documented according to the procedure given in EN 15051-1:2013, Annex B. 4.6 Test procedure The dustiness shall be tested according to the rotating dr

42、quipped with eight longitudinal vanes to lift and let fall a known volume of the bulk material under test (the dust generation section (3), and a three-stage dust sampling system (the outlet stage (4) through which the emitted dust cloud is drawn by a vacuum pump (8) at a flow rate of 38 l min1for t

43、he duration of the test. The stainless steel vanes of 230 mm length and 25 mm height are fixed longitudinally to the internal walls of the drum and point radially inwards towards the centre of the drum. The test apparatus shall be earthed. The dust sampling system (4) comprises two particle size-sel

44、ective foam stages in series followed by a back-up filter. Polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE) spacer rings of size 80 mm diameter and 2 mm thickness are used to separate the two foam stages and the back-up filter to prevent cross contamination. Dust entering the conical passage and into the sampling syst

45、em gives an estimate of the inhalable fraction. The size selectors, in the form of cylindrical plugs of 800 pores per metre (20 pores per inch) and 3 200 pores per metre (80 pores per inch) porous metal foam, are chosen to select the thoracic and the respirable fractions, respectively. The BS EN 150

46、51-2:2013EN 15051-2:2013 (E) 8 foams and the back-up filter are weighed before and after the test to provide the dustiness estimates of the three size fractions. A glass fibre protective filter with a diameter of 150 mm is on the inlet of the drum (2) to prevent dust contamination and to spread the

47、air flow into the drum. The air flow rate through the test apparatus is monitored using an in-line mass flowmeter (6), and this also provides measurement of the volume of air sampled. A timing control circuit (9) automatically controls the operation of the test apparatus. 5.2 Particle size-selective

48、 foams Porous metal foam size selectors with a reticulated open-cell structure are used to select the thoracic and respirable dust fractions 1). Both size selectors have a diameter of 80 mm, the 800 pores per metre (20 pores per inch) foam has two layers of 10 mm thickness, and the 3 200 pores per m

49、etre (80 pores per inch) foam is a single layer of 12 mm thickness. 5.3 Filters Filters with a diameter of 80 mm are used to collect the respirable particles that penetrate the foams. The filter shall have a collection efficiency of at least 99 %. Choice of filter material depends on subsequent analysis. 5.4 Ancillary equipment The balance room or chamber, where weighing is carried out, shall have a temperature and humidity maintained at a stable level, so that an acceptable weighing uncertainty is obtained, see ISO 15767.
