Scope

GB 15605-2024 is the English-translated version of 粉尘爆炸泄压规范.

GB 15605 is the design standard for explosion venting, the measure that decides whether a dust explosion inside a silo, a dust collector or a bucket elevator blows out through a panel or bursts the vessel. It sets the general requirements, the design and selection of the vent, the requirements on the venting device itself, then the installation, use, inspection and maintenance, and the verification methods, with eight annexes carrying the vent area calculations and worked examples for containers, dust collectors, piping and bucket elevators. The status changed with this edition: the previous text was GB/T 15605-2008, a guide, while this one is mandatory. Issued on 31 December 2024, in force since 1 January 2026. This page is published from the official record of the standard held by the Chinese standards administration: the identification, the dates, the classification and the edition it replaces are taken from there. The clause text, the tables and the numeric limits are not reproduced on this page — they are in the document itself, which is delivered in full in English translation.
