The Ravair Nail Dust Extractor has a full Independent Lab Report and LEV Test available to download on their website, www.ravair.co.uk. It confirms without doubt that the unit captures nail dust from a distance of at least 300mm away from the fan face and at a rate of 2.5m/s. The airflow rate given as a minimum in HSE Coshh SR 13 is 0.5m/s so the Ravair is 5 times more powerful, and is fully certificated, than required by Health and Safety Recommendations. It also has a filter that is triple action with dust foam pad for larger particles, 20mm glass fibre HEPA and activated carbon for help with fumes. The filter is fully tested to EU standard EN 1822-1 which captures dust, pollen, pet dander etc as well as invisible nail dust to 0.3 microns and above. (below 0.7 microns is invisible to the human eye). The carbon content in the filter is not enough to remove fumes such as those from acrylic nail products but will certainly help and is better than nothing. A stand alone Fume Extractor would be recommended for these fumes. The price is also well below 50% less expensive than the £400 mentioned in a previous post.
