Expert Spraybooth Thorough Examination and Testing (LEV Testing) by P601 Qualified Engineers

Spray Booth Mist / Smoke Clearance Testing

As most airborne paint mist is invisible, it is important that spray booth users know exactly how long it takes to clear isocyanate particles from the area. Spraybooth clearance times should be displayed outside the booth to ensure engineers know when it is safe to re-enter, as exposure to high levels of isocyanate particles can lead to occupational asthma.

Thorough Examination & Testing of LEV Systems is required under COSHH Legislation at intervals not to exceed 14 months. LEV Systems are equipment include spray booths and dust extraction systems.

Our LEV Testing Services

Comprehensive Inspection and Testing

Our engineers perform a detailed examination of your LEV system to ensure it operates efficiently and safely. Our testing process includes:

1. Visual inspection: A thorough visual examination to identify any visible defects or blockages in the system.
2. Performance assessment: Measurement of airflow rates, pressure levels, and the effectiveness of contaminant capture.
3. Compliance evaluation: Ensuring your LEV system meets the requirements of HSG258 and other relevant standards.
4. System optimisation: Providing recommendations for improvements to enhance system performance and longevity.

Smoke / mist clearance

Smoke is generated to replicate the behaviour of isocyanate. This enables us to measure the clearance time and recommend safety precautions to avoid exposure.

Certification and documentation

Upon completing the examination and testing, we provide a comprehensive report and certification that confirm compliance with HSG258 guidelines. This documentation is crucial for maintaining records and demonstrating your commitment to workplace safety.
