RPME Respirable Particulate Mitigation Ecosystem:‘A system, or group of interacting elements designed to protect the operator/s breathing zone environment’ Bolting a pressuriser to a cabin without proper seals will not function well at all. Leaks in the cab will allow...

OEM filter media is not designed to mitigate against respirable dust Dust inside OEM airway immediately AFTER filter Fine dust contamination is the main reason for air conditioning-HVAC system underperformance and premature failures. Dust wears out electrical...

Aerosol & DPM: controlling hazardous submicron respirable particles At mineral processing sites, there are lots of substances that can remain airborne for days depending on the size of the particulate matter (PM). There are sites that must mitigate against sulphur...

SILICA (RCS) respirable crystalline silica Respirable mine dust in high concentrations cause lung disease due to overloading the defences of the respiratory system as particles start to deposit in the lung. Silica airborne particles are 20 times more toxic to the...

The hidden risk factors from fine dust that impacts on the health and safety of operators. The real issue is respirable dust (particulate) inside the breathing zone and the emphasis must be to prevent disease for the entire working life of operators. It is invisible...

 After conducting research and testing, BreatheSafe proposes a real-time dust monitoring study to evaluate the effectiveness of operator cabins working at mineral processing sites. This study focuses on bulldozers, front end loaders, and haul trucks. BreatheSafe...

Do you have dust in your cabin? Is the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system underperforming or not cooling as before? Has the machine been stood down often due to HVAC service or repairs? If you answered yes to any of these questions, the main issue...
