- Wall mounted, low vacuum systems designed for extraction and filtration of welding fume.
- Ideal for a variety of facilities in which floor space is a premium including: maintenance departments, general fabrication and welding job shops, weld schools, and industrial welding environments.
- Lincoln Electric’s fume extraction arms are designed to provide welders optimal motion and reach for their specific welding position(s) and work area.
The operation of welding fume control equipment is affected by various factors including proper use and positioning of the equipment, maintenance of the equipment and the specific welding procedure and application involved. Worker exposure level should be checked upon installation and periodically thereafter to be certain it is within applicable OSHA PEL and ACGIH TLV limits.
