Services
LEV Testing
Comprehensive LEV system examinations conducted by BOHS P601-certified engineers. Our testing ensures compliance with HSE guidelines and COSHH regulations through thorough airflow measurements and contaminant capture assessments. We provide detailed reports with recommendations for maintaining optimal system performance.
Air Engineering Design
Custom industrial ventilation solutions using AutoCAD software. Our designs integrate mechanical cooling, filtration, and humidity control systems tailored to specific manufacturing processes while meeting DW144 installation standards for ductwork integrity.
Filtration Systems
Self-regenerating filter installations for textile and nonwoven production. Our systems combine rotary drum filters and automatic panel filters to maintain workplace air quality while complying with occupational exposure limits specified in EH40/2005.
Electrical Installations
Custom electrical panel cooling solutions using filtered air systems. We implement digital control systems with HMI interfaces to regulate temperature and humidity in manufacturing environments while reducing fire hazards from dust accumulation.
Humidity Control
Direct humidification systems using UV-sterilised water misting technology. Our solutions maintain precise humidity levels in textile manufacturing areas through programmable control systems that prevent fibre degradation and optimise production efficiency.
Questions
What is LEV testing and why is it required?
LEV testing ensures workplace ventilation systems effectively control hazardous substances. It's legally required under COSHH regulations to protect worker health and maintain compliance.
Do you offer bespoke LEV system design?
Yes, our BOHS-certified engineers design custom LEV systems to HSG258 standards, with AutoCAD drawings and DW144-compliant ductwork installations.
What industries do you specialise in?
We focus on textile manufacturing, nonwovens production, and extrusion processes, providing humidity control, dust extraction, and filtration solutions tailored to these sectors.
How often should LEV systems be tested?
COSHH regulations require LEV systems to be examined every 14 months, though some high-risk processes may require more frequent testing.
Do you provide nationwide service?
We offer LEV testing within 100 miles of Oldham and provide design/installation services across the UK through our specialist engineering teams.
