OSHA has recently implemented new regulations to protect workers from crystallized silica (quartz) dust. Crystallized Silica irritates the lungs when inhaled, causing Silicosis, a medical condition where the lungs respond to these irritants by forming nodules, eventually restricting the lungs’ airflow capability. OSHA’s new regulations aims to reduce worker exposure to Silica dust to under 25 micrograms per cubic meter (25 μg/m³).

Dust Collection Units/Vacuums
To comply with OSHA, the dust collection units must use a HEPA filter with 99.7% efficiency at collecting debris 0.3 micrometers or larger, as well as the ability to automatically self-clean the filter. Bosch’s dust collectors clean the filter every 15 seconds by reversing airflow, precisely matching OSHA’s requirements.
