Our solder fume extraction systems are designed for single or multiple-operator stations that may generate fume comprising resin particulate and gaseous organic compounds.
Solder flux fume is recognised as a top cause of occupational asthma (Hse.gov.uk. 2022. Solderer – common causes of asthma – HSE. [online] Available at: https://www.hse.gov.uk/asthma/solderers.htm [Accessed 1 February 2022].), therefore understanding and controlling this hazard can be a key part of any health and safety programme.
Our range comprises two types of systems: tip (‘T’) extraction, for high pressure/ low airflow soldering processes; and volume (‘V’) for low pressure/ high airflow electronics processes, with features including three-stage filtration, advanced airflow design and filter condition display that helps to keep a clean work environment and productivity high.
