Product Feature
EV-VS VIGISPACE Explosion Deflector
The Explosion Vent Deflector EV-VS VIGISPACE limits the opening angle of the explosion vent and guides the explosion pressure wave, flames and heat into defined areas.

When an outdoor explosion occurs, explosion vents open and release the explosion flame and pressure wave into the environment.

In Case You Missed It
Dust Collection in the Canadian Food Industry
Dust collection in the Food Industry can be a complicated and perplexing topic. Proper facility maintenance is necessary in all areas of food manufacturing to ensure hygiene standards are met because a high-profile food handling scare can shift industry thinking. This requires operations managers to keep up-to-date on all the current and proposed standards. And to make it even harder, there may not be a single overall ruling body to dictate the correct requirements for each food manufacturing line.
