Spot extraction arm with integrated hood element

A flexible arm with an integrated hood element for capturing welding fumes. Minimizes airflow and maximizes capture efficiency.

Physical-Chemical Mechanism of Action

The point extraction arm ensures targeted fume extraction at the welding source. The flow-optimized geometry reduces the required air volume flow, increasing efficiency while shortening operating time.

Metallurgical Relevance & Risks in Welding

Effective fume extraction prevents the buildup of toxic substances in the surroundings and protects the workplace. Inadequate or inefficient extraction can lead to toxic contamination and health issues.

Workshop Practice & Instructions

Make sure the arm is correctly positioned to fully cover the welding source. Use the arm during high temperature differences or intensive welding work to ensure optimal fume extraction.
