Pre-Design Surveys

Kleissler P C, LLC performs engineering  studies of industrial dust producing operations. Each study has a detailed report that includes:

• Description of Operations (SOP's)                     
• Pre-testing of exposure levels
• Field observations of dust patterns
• Photos of operations
• Proposed solutions
• Cost proposal

Customer Personnel engaged in the process:

• Industrial Hygienist
• Project Engineer
• Operators
• Managers
• Quality Control
• Maintenance

System Audits Kleissler-PC conducts performance audits of existing dust containment or process air systems and equipment.

The audit includes:

• An evaluation of the system's performance against specific parameters such as system static pressure, horsepower usage, velocities at various points, and the amount of air handled at control locations
• An inspection of the physical condition of the system, to include checks for clogs, mechanical wear, structural defects, excessive vibration, etc.
• A review of production changes (e. g., new ingredients, speed changes, new equipment, etc.) or modifications to the air system since its installation or  last audit.
• An evaluation of how the system is being used, which should indicate the general understanding of the system by the operators and other personnel
• Observations of flow patterns
• A written audit report outlining findings and stating corrections that should be considered

Testing (Personal Sampling)

Kleissler-PC performs  air and dust level testing in the area of an application process. This might be done prior to installation of a dust control system in order to understand the  magnitude of a problem or after a dust control system is installed in order to  show the effectiveness of the system.

A test protocol is developed with the industrial hygienist. Personnel or area sampling may be performed.

Kleissler-PC provides the customer with a testing report which includes a  detailed description of the testing procedure followed as well as a display and analysis of the results of the testing.

Training and Education Kleissler P C, LLC conducts training and education sessions.   Regardless of whether it is training for a specific dust control system or an education session in dust containment issues in general, Kleissler-PC has the expertise.

Airflow Modeling Kleissler-PC provides Computer Airflow Modeling Services. These Computer Fluid Dynamic (CFD) simulations can be powerful tools in understanding airflow conditions and dust containment systems - actual or proposed. Our engineers have the capability to effectively interpret the results. It is a tool used by KPC in development of new and innovative designs in dust containment.
