Flammable Limits |

When vapors of a
flammable
or combustible
liquid are mixed with air in the proper proportions in the presence of a source of
ignition, rapid combustion or an explosion can occur. The proper proportion is called the
flammable range and is also often referred to as the explosive range. The flammable range includes all concentrations of flammable vapor or gas in air, in which a flash will occur or a flame will travel if the mixture is ignited. |
