Removing welding fumes with an on-torch extraction system is the most efficient and reliable way to remove harmful welding fumes.
Latest technology torches are similar weight and design to standard mig welding torches.
ABICOR BINZEL leads the way with the xFUME® PRO extraction torch range; lighter, slimmer, ergonomic design with highly efficient fume capture.
Fume is removed very close to source with no need to re-position an extraction nozzle or hood, no job interruptions.
Using an xFUME® PRO torch with ABICOR BINZEL’s xFUME® ADVANCED fume extraction unit, 90–98 % of the welding fumes can be captured and the unit filters out up to 99.95 % of all dusts > 0.1 µm from the fumes. Particles in the fume can remain in the air for up to two days which shows the importance of removing them efficiently at source for the protection of the welder and others entering the production area.
xFUME® PRO’s torch design ensures the shielding gas pool is unaffected by the suctioning away of the welding fume as it is generated. In some positions the rate of extraction may need to be reduced but this is easily done with the slider button on the torch handle.
Fume extraction can be automatic whenever and wherever the welding is done. No extra effort by the welder to turn on/off power and position or re-position as the job progresses.
ABICOR BINZEL xFUME – The Lightest Fume Gun in the Industry
A Welding Engineers (NZ) Ltd customer trial confirmed the xFUME PRO 500amp, heavy duty, water cooled fume extraction torch is lighter than other watercooled fume extraction torch in the NZ market and is comparable in size and weight to a regular 500amp water cooled welding gun.
The xFUME® PRO 501 fume extraction torch is the top of the range, heavy duty, watercooled version for professional and industrial use.
Air cooled versions are also available.
