Exhaust Fume Extractor Kits should be installed on all Diesel Plant Machinery, especially when Working in an Enclosed Space, such as a Basement or Warehouse.

DEEEs stands for Diesel Engine Exhaust Emissions; which is a dangerous mixture of gases, vapours, liquid aerosols and particles. If you are using plant machinery older than Euro V, it is likely that you will need to attach a diesel particulate filter (DPF) to the exhaust to remove harmful particulate. RVT stock wide a range of heavy duty diesel particulate filters for machinery such as excavators, loaders, generators, compressors and more.

It is possible to create a bespoke RAVEX® diesel exhaust fume extraction solution to suit larger machines or longer runs. Please speak with a consultant about your individual requirements.

It's ideal for static diesel machinery such as

• Generators
• Compressors
• Excavators

And any other diesel-powered equipment that's more or less stationary, rather than mobile vehicles.

You can run ducting up to 90 m in total length.

The inlet of the fan connects to the machine’s exhaust pipe via flexible hosing. A bracket holds the hose slightly away from the exhaust, so it captures fumes without interfering with engine performance.

RVT Group uses a heavy-duty steel centrifugal fan. This design is safer because the airflow does not pass over the motor, making it more suitable for hot, potentially flammable fumes.

Yes, it helps you to remain compliant with COSHH regulations (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) by extracting toxic exhaust gases from a work area rather than letting them build up to a harmful level.

It is designed to capture and remove dangerous diesel engine exhaust fumes from static diesel machinery, such as generators, compressors, excavators, and vent the fume safely before releasing clean air into the atmosphere.

DPF stands for Diesel Particulate Filter.

Diesel Particulate Filters can be fitted to the exhaust of mini diggers, excavators, loaders and compressors etc. to remove up to 99% of harmful particulate, which protects both people and the environment.

This is especially important when diesel machinery is being used in an enclosed space, as exposure to DEEEs can result in anything from dizziness and fatigue, to kidney cancer and even death.

Although Britain is no longer an EU member state, it is worth noting that there is now a 0.05 mg/m3 8-Hour TWA Limit Value for diesel engine exhaust emissions for EU member states, under the Carcinogens and Mutagens Directive 2004/37/EC (CMD).

Tunnel safety is addressed under BS 6164 'Health and safety in tunnelling in the construction industry - Code of practice'. In 2019, the standard was revised and new guidance was issued in relation to exposure to diesel particulate matter. The guidance explains, "until further guidance is issued by HSE, a limit value of 100 ug/m3 as a 15-minute time-weighted average, and measured as elemental carbon, should not be exceeded.”

The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations (COSHH) gives guidance on how to conduct a suitable risk assessment and determine whether the exposure risk is high, medium or low. Armed with this information, you can then determine the necessary steps to prevent or adequately control exposure to DEEEs.

DEEEs stands for Diesel Engine Exhaust Emissions. DEEEs contain a complex mixture of gases, vapours, liquid aerosols and particulate substances, which are the products of combustion. DEEEs are known to cause anything from irritation to the eyes to an increased risk of lung and bladder cancer, making exhaust fume extraction an important consideration on site.
