WeldPro 360 High Vacuum Welding Fume Extraction System

Every welding job generates fumes and smoke that can be hazardous if inhaled. During the welding process, vapors, floating metal particles, and ultra-fine microparticles are created that contaminate the air the welder breathes.

  

 In large weldments, and sometimes even on small weldments, fume extraction is often challenging to incorporate in a highly productive way.  That's because as the welder moves to other areas to weld they have to stop and move the fume extraction hose near the weld joint.  In many applications, fume extraction actually hinders productivity with lots of time spent frequently repositioning the equipment. 

The WeldPro 360 High Vacuum Fume Extraction System is a Self-Contained Unit Mounted to the Weld Boom

The best way to address this is to capture and remove the fumes at the source - that is at the origin of the weld. The integrated WeldPro 360 High Vacuum Fume Extraction system is a low-volume/high-vacuum system mounted on the weld boom or weld arm.  The extraction system moves with the welding arm.  It extracts the fumes and smoke at the source through a fume extraction welding gun.  The extraction unit and fume extraction gun move with the operator. 

Fume extraction occurs at the weld gun and happens in sync with the rotation of the welding arm or boom.  Wherever the gun goes, the fume extraction system goes within a 56' diameter circle. No time spent moving the fume extractor each time the welder moves to another location on the weldment. Efficient fume extraction is accomplished and the welder is provided with maximum protection and safety.

 

Mounting the WeldPro 360 High Vacuum Fume Extraction System to the weld boom column eliminates the need to drag the fume extractor into position each time the welding operator has to reposition themself or move to a new location. This provides the welder with maximum protection and safety.  And it saves time, letting them focus on quality and productivity.

Available in 300, 400, and 500 amp models with 45° or 60° neck. The small size of the vacuum chamber provides good joint access and visibility. The vacuum hose swivel on the rear of the handle improves flexibility and reduces wrist fatigue. Adjustable Vacuum chamber suction to optimize fume capture, gas flow, and weld access. Works with solid and flux-core wires.
