FOLO-UP Product Safety Report: 2412-0024 Italmecc Air Box 2100
A water backed booth LEV system designed to capture and filter dust produced during stone processing.
Why this product was flagged
Recorded hazard
The product instructions do not include adequate instructions for installation, specifically, the requirement for ducting extracted air to outside. When used in accordance with the instructions without being ducted to outside, the machine does not effectively control exposure to hazardous substances generated during the intended use of the machine, including respirable dust. This is of particular concern when used to control dust generated by processing materials containing respirable crystalline silica (RCS). Exposure to RCS poses a serious health risk.
What the notice records
Corrective action
Italmecc S.R.L. have stopped supply in GB until the machine instructions are updated and brought into compliance.
