Extraction Arm with Integrated Spark Trap
Movable capture element for welding smoke that intercepts glowing particles before they enter the piping system or filter through mechanical deflection. This minimizes the risk of fire in the filtration system.
The extraction arm with spark arrester catches glowing particles during welding before they are drawn into the hose or filter. This is important to prevent a fire nest from forming in the extraction system, especially when working over painted or oily parts. Keep the spark arrester clean and check it regularly, otherwise it will clog up and the extraction won't draw properly. For heavy spark-producing work like grinding or root welding, you should keep an eye on the arm and check the filter more often.
