We supplied 10 small self contained metal grinding LEV systems to a client with sites in Highlands, Scottish Islands, Central Scotland, The Scottish Borders and Dumfries and Galloway.
These systems are used to sharpen tools used in the stone cutting process for respirable crystalline silica, or RCS.
Three Titanium Dust Wet Collector systems installed for a client in England with super silencer and recirculating air filtration, lower costs , lower site emissions and no single point of failure. A fantastic lean project with a fast ROI for our client on this wet collector Titanium dressing system.
A new system installed at a Police firing range: This Lead Dust and Propellant LEV system was installed over 3 days to replace the clients existing Lead Dust LEV system using the latest Low Energy Fan system.
We were approached by a long term client to look at a lean project to reduce costs on Oil Mist units, we replaced 9 x Electro static systems with 9 x smaller and more economic hard ducted Oil Mist units with washable filters and low running costs, completely in line with client expectations and HSE Guidance on Oil Mist.
These 9 Oil Mist systems were changed out over 3 days in North East England. Compliance LEV change, service and test these LEV systems across all of England, Scotland and Wales. For Oil mist service or free guidance contact Compliance LEV
Compliance LEV installations are fully compliant from day one with System Log Book, Certification and Gauges. Ask us about all types of LEV systems from Wood Dust to RCS, Weld Fume, Oil Mist, Bakery Dust, Chemical LEV.
HSE have announced that there is a renewed focus on Welding and weld fume and on Oil Mist.
For welding fume including mild steel welding regardless of duration, HSE will no longer accept any welding undertaken without any suitable exposure control measures in place, as there is no known level of safe exposure.
Your weld fume should ideally be captured at source using the correct weld fume local exhaust ventilation.
Compliance LEV can supply various types of Mobile Weld Fume LEV, including Wall Hung Weld Fume LEV, Centralised Weld Fume LEV, Downdraught Bench etc., to cope with grinding and dressing dust.
Contact Compliance LEV Ltd or free help, advice and quotation to ensure you stay fully compliant with HSG 258 for your welding fume systems.
With regard to Oil Mist or metal working fluids Compliance LEV have supplied and installed various types of Oil Mist LEV across all of the UK from the Highlands of Scotland and through all England’s counties.
In all aspects of machining metal working fluids or oil mist are high on the HSE control agenda because of the aerosol and the vapour they create.
If you have an issue with oil mist, if you need statutory LEV testing also known as TExT or if you need oil mist unit servicing, oil mist filters or complete new Oil Mist Systems, please contact LEV for free help advice and quotation to ensure you stay fully Compliant with HSG 258 for your Oil Mist Systems

Our client had a very large wet dust collector sited outdoors which pulled air from 3 booths in which titanium grinding took place.
Titanium dust is explosive hence the requirement for a wet
dust collector, where the sparkrisk is mitigated immediately as it hits the water.
As an environmentally aware company here at Compliance LEV we are always looking for ways to reduce impact on the environment, save energy and save money and running costs for our clients.
We began with a site survey and noticed right away that our client was only using a single booth 80% of the time whilst requiring to run the big external dust collector to get the single booth its required airflow… meanwhile 3 booths worth of warm condition air was being cast outside of the building!
Our solution was to decommission the large outdoor unit and replace it with 3 localized internal systems. This would mean each booth could operate individually and only run it’s own dust collector.
Environmental and Economic benefits of this solution:
Result – client saves money, environmental impact and carbon footprint is reduced.
It is possible to catch COVID-19 either by breathing in droplets coughed out or exhaled by a person with COVID-19 or by touching eyes, nose or mouth after handling a contaminated object. All sections of society, including businesses and employees must play a role if we are to stop the spread of this disease. Compliance LEV therefore identify the business activities that could expose workers or others and follow the practical steps suggested below by the World Health Organisation to prevent spread of COVID-19. Our fleet has underwent a deep clean and sanitisation and our LEV Engineers are fully briefed on safety when testing LEV systems in all industries such as aviation, welding. wood dust, RCS (Respirable Crystalline Silica), Titanium, flour and bakery dust, paint fume, & metallisation.
Practical steps will vary dependent on nature and location of industry, exposure to infection, supply chains, etc. The following steps and measures are far from exhaustive and will constantly be reviewed and updated.
The following basic infection prevention measures, drawn from the WHO, can protect individuals from getting sick and spreading sickness:
-Promote and enforce frequent handwashing and respiratory hygiene.
-Wear a facial covering and/or face visor.
-Discourage touching eyes, nose, mouth.
