| Abstract |
Adopted by the Committee of Ministers on 11 June 1980, this resolution specifies the provisions on the different means to prevent the spread, reduce the concentration and prevent the inhalation of dust at workplaces and recommends that the 7 States parties to the Partial Agreement (Belgium, France, Federal Republic of Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, United Kingdom) and the government of Austria should bring their regulations into conformity with these provisions. Individual provisions concern: definitions of types of dust; different means to be applied and their technical characteristics; hazards connected with exhaust ventilation; special measures required in the case of flammable and explosive dust; general hygiene measures; studies, tests, measures and controls. Technical guidelines for setting up an exhaust ventilation system are appended, and cover: study prior to installing a dust-capture system; system design; commissioning, maintenance, system noise; mechanical and electrical hazards; fire hazards. |
