3 Reasons To Use Fumekiller Fume Extraction Welding
The fact stands that every welding project generates hazardous smoke and fumes, which if inhaled, can prove to be dangerous to the welders, and those around. Acute exposure to welding fumes and gases can cause irritation in the eye, nose, and throat, and dizziness and nausea. And, prolonged exposure can cause lung damage and cancer of the lung, larynx, and urinary tract. Other health issues can include stomach ulcers, kidney damage, nervous system damage, and Parkinson’s disease.
One way to prevent such issues is to improve the safety of welding operators, with the help of welding fume extractors that can offer efficient fume extraction through source capture. However, you need to be very sure of what type of fume extractor you are choosing. There are a variety of factors you need to consider while choosing your fume extractor type, such as the type of welding executed, the worker’s working methods, the metals used, the indoor/outdoor operations, the ventilation, the air pattern, and the type and size of the space where the welding operation takes place. Checking all of this is important in order to be able to choose the right kind of welding fume extractor India that can ensure safety of the workers within the premises.
One of the best welding fume extraction systems you may use is the Fumekiller, brought to you by Powertech Pollution Controls Pvt. Ltd. The three main benefits of using this special type of extraction system are its operational usage, its unique features, and the myriad of applications it can be used in.
Operational usage
The fume extractor possesses a suction inlet through which the fume particles are sucked in; one unique feature being its prefilter which removes the larger particles in the fume, after which the finer particles enter the electrostatic filter. Here, these fine particles receive a high positive charge, as they pass through a series of parallel aluminium plates, after which they pass through another series of aluminium plates that are negatively charged. The positive and negative charges attract one another, leading to the particles to stick to the plate. One other unique feature here is that these particles are stuck to the plates even after the electrostatic filter is switched off. This results in clean air, devoid of any particles, to escape through the outlet into the premises.
Unique features
One of the best part about using this particular fume extractor system is that the filter modules within the system are many times washable and re-usable throughout the life of the equipment. This means there are low maintenance and running costs, as compared to other conventional mechanical filters. In addition to this, there are many other additional safety features incorporated into the system, such as limit switches, high voltage fault trip circuitry, and motor protections, all of which results in safe, reliable, and efficient functioning of the system. Operators thus have a safe and healthy work environment to work in, where toxic airborne pollutants are removed.
Myriad of applications
One exceptional advantage of considering to use the Fumekiller fume extractor system is that it can be used for the capture and control of fumes not only in welding operations, but in many other applications like ink spray, induction hardening, oil quenching, heat treatment, wire drawing, soldering, dip tinning, rubber curing, die casting, and many more. Moreover, this system can also be used to capture and control smoke, fine dust, and fine powder from capsuling, tabletting, and finishing operations.
With this welding fume extractor system, you can thus have a cleaner and healthier world around you. What’s more? Powertech Pollution Controls Pvt. Ltd. is an ISO 9001:2015 certified company, which clearly proves its standard and reliability!
