Lower explosive limit definition

Lower explosive limit. (LEL) means the concentration of a compound in air below which a flame will not propagate if the mixture is ignited.

Lower explosive limit means the lowest percent by volume of a mixture of explosive gases that will propagate a flame in air at a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius and atmospheric pressure.

Lower explosive limit means the lowest percent by volume of a mixture of explosive gases in air that will propagate a flame at 25oC and atmospheric pressure.
