DANGER!
Explosion hazard!
When dispersing oxidizable substances, e.g. metals or
coal, there is a risk of spontaneous combustion (dust
explosion) if the share of fine particles exceeds a cer-
tain percentage. When dispersing these kinds of sub-
stances, special safety measures must be taken and the
work must be supervised from a specialist.
The high-speed rotor mill is not explosion protected
and is not designed to disperse explosive materials.
