Our market leading range of AirBench downdraught benches include heavy duty FPW type grinding dust extractor benches with multi-stage spark protection and up to H13 HEPA final dust and fume filtration.
VertEx cross-draught systems and booths provide a fully extracted space in which your operator can work without contamination. VP units can be provided with flame-retardant main filters and H13 final filters to enable use for continuous welding over wide areas.
Our Air Cleaning Systems with H13 final filters help capture remaining atmospheric fume.
Welding fumes are known carcinogens and can cause a range of other health issues including emphysema and occupational asthma. Grinding dust inhalation can also cause long-term breathing problems.
Correctly specified filtration can reduce or remove this risk.
Weld fume is a sticky contaminant and even at low volumes can cause problems with finishing as well as damaging or contaminating finished product.
Grinding dust is pervasive and if allowed to spread will interfere with final product quality.
A healthy workforce is always more productive – lfewer sick days mean a more effective business.
More importantly, the cost of failing to make a proper assessment under COSHH, and take steps to address issues, can be the most expensive mistake your business ever makes.
For welding and grinding applications, we recommend our AirBench FPW range, or for larger processes the VertEx VAW models. For light duty steel sanding and similar, our FN range with our ‘C’ type anti-spark filters are ideal.
All models are available in a range of sizes to suit almost any manual grinding dust or weld fume extraction issue.
