Considered are the main indices, characterizing the fire and explosion hazard of products of grinding of ferroallys, applied in electrode technology. The effect of grinder type on behaviour of ferroalloy powders is noted, and comparative evaluation of industrial installations used in electrode production, is given. A conclusion is made about the need for regular certification of each specific technology of ferroalloys grinding. 11 Ref., 4 Tables, 3 Figures.
Keywords: welding production, fire and explosion hazard, electrode technology, ferroalloys grinding, manufacturing quality, technology certification
