What Does UFL Stand For?

UFL stands for Upper Flammable Limit

UFL, or Upper Flammable Limit, refers to the maximum concentration of a gas or vapor in air above which the mixture is too rich to ignite. It is a critical parameter in safety assessments and risk management for handling flammable substances, as operating above this limit poses significant fire and explosion hazards. Understanding the UFL helps ensure compliance with safety regulations and the implementation of effective controls in environments where flammable materials are present.
