How LEV Interfacing Supports ISO 14001 and Reduces Your CO₂ Footprint

Looking to cut energy costs, operate more sustainably, or work towards ISO 14001 accreditation? LEV electrical interfacing is a smart and effective upgrade to consider.

What is LEV Interfacing?

LEV systems remove harmful airborne contaminants like dust and fumes – but many run all day, even during machine downtime, leading to high energy use, excess noise, and unnecessary wear.

LEV electrical interfacing solves this by linking extraction to machine operation. When a tool runs, so does the extraction. When it stops, the system powers down after a set time. This smart automation cuts energy waste without compromising safety or HSG258 compliance.

How does this support ISO 14001 criteria?

1. Improved Energy Efficiency – Reduce extraction unit runtime and cut electricity usage
2. Lower CO₂ Emissions – Use less energy, reduce your carbon footprint, and support measurable environmental improvement.
3. Quantifiable Environmental Impact - We provide clear energy-saving metrics to help demonstrate compliance and continuous improvement.
4. Enhanced Workplace Conditions - Less unnecessary noise creates a quieter, more comfortable workspace, supporting employee wellbeing.

Additional Benefits Include:
- HSG258 Compliance – Timed run-off ensures effective contaminant removal.
- Lower Maintenance Costs – Reduced runtime extends filter and motor life.
- Rapid ROI – Many clients recoup investment within 3–24 months.
- Noise Reduction – Only runs when needed, reducing ambient noise significantly.

Is LEV Interfacing Right for Your Business?

Electrical interfacing can be applied to a wide range of dust, fume, and oil mist extraction systems. Whatever industry you work in, our BOHS-qualified engineers tailor every installation to your system and process – no generic solutions.
