In the article was described combustible properties of tobacco product dust. Those properties decide about fire and explosion hazard for dust in layer and in cloud according to PN-EN 50281-2-1:2002 and PN-EN ISO/IEC 80079-20-2. There were determined protection against fire and explosion requirements of buildings structural elements and appliances used in space where dust accumulates. The article also consists safety requirements of using appliances in explosion hazard areas according to PN-EN 60079-14:2014. In the article are presented results of minimal ignition temperature of layer (MITL) and minimal ignition temperature of cloud dust (MTCD) as a function of dust layer thickness of chosen tobacco product and values of maximum acceptable surface temperature (MAST) of machines operating in the presence of dust cloud and chosen dust layer with thickness of 5 and 12.5mm.
