Fume Extraction Systems

Fume extraction systems are essential for removing harmful fumes in production assembly and rework operations, including hand soldering, solder pots, adhesives, chemicals, solvents and sealants. Airborne particulates generated during these processes can pose serious health hazards. These systems effectively eliminate such risks. Most solder products contain fluxes, either rosin or synthetic, which release harmful fumes and gases when heated. Many adhesives contain chemicals and solvents that can create an unsafe working environment.

To ensure a safe working environment, fume extraction and filtration systems are crucial when handling adhesives, glues, aerosols, soldering systems, and solvents. These systems help in the removal and reduction of fumes, vapours, mists, particles, and dust, complying with the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) regulations of 2002 and 2004.

Filtration systems re-circulate filtered air safely back into the workplace through a series of filters, while extraction systems exhaust filtered air via a flexi-duct out to the atmosphere, typically outside the room or building.

Adhesive Dispensing Ltd provide a wide range of equipment options for dispensing almost all assembly fluids - from watery liquids, solvents, primers and activators through to thick pastes, sealants, silicones, gels and epoxies.

Categories
Filtration Systems
Filtration systems recirculate cleaned air safely back into the workplace environment. They do not require the fumes to be ducted out of a vent or open window. They use a main filter and a series of other filters to remove adhesive or solder fumes and particles and expel safe air. Ideal for use with adhesives, solvents, aerosols and other fluids.
Extraction Systems
Extraction systems draw fumes from the working environment in flexible ducting hose to an outside window or vent. They use a powerful extractor fan and main filter with other filters to remove adhesive or solder fumes & particles safely out of the building. Ideal for use with adhesives, solvents, aerosols and other fluids. Recommended for high fume levels.
Fume Extractor Accessories
High performance and powerful extraction systems for the removal of unwanted adhesive and solvent fumes from the work space. Versatile products providing a safe and clean working environment when handling and dispensing liquids or aerosols that generate odours. Select from a wide range of spares & accessories such as filters and clamps.
