Health and Safety for Beginners Forums

Hi again, I checked this particular equipment and looks more like a permanent dust monitor, and not an air sampling unit. I don't know how the HSE will see this type of device for monitoring the air quality. But definitely, you need more info, what you are monitoring, and what to do when reaching th...

I us...

Is not compliance with BS EN ISO 13857:2008 Safety of machinery? How do you know that? Just because of the distance? What elements of risk are you considering? Well if not compliance doesn't have CE Marking, correct? Simply remove from the site and ask for the money back.
