Description
AWS Welding Fume Extraction System 900Designed by Nederman, the world’s leading brand in Industrial air filtration, the FPS900 is a mobile, single-arm welding fume extraction unit built specifically for heavy-duty welding environments where other systems have tried and failed.The key difference when it comes to the Nederman FPS900 is that the system features a ‘CLEANABLE’ long life cartridge filter. Meaning that while the initial investment in this feature-packed extraction unit is greater than many cheaper alternatives, the cleanable filter ensures high-level performance in the harshest environments and low ongoing running costs.If you are looking for high performance and economical long-term local fume extraction, the mobile, single arm FPS900 will not let you down.- 3 metre extraction arm swivels 360 degrees for flexible positioning- Cartridge filter offers high filtration efficiency- Cleanable, long-life filter minimises running costs- Blow gun included for filter cleaning- Large air volume of 500-900m3/h with low energy consumption- Motor overload protection device included- Single phase system with 230V power voltage- The AWS Welding Fume Protection System 900 (FPS900) is a fully mobile, single-arm extraction unit that captures and removes welding fume at the source without interfering with the welding process.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Why Use Local Exhaust Ventilation?- Welders present, on average, a 43% increased risk of lung cancer when compared with those who have never welded or been exposed to welding fume¹.- In early 2017, welding fume was reclassified from IARC classification Group 2B (possibly carcinogenic to humans) to Group 1 (Carcinogenic to humans).- Where substitution and reduction of hazardous chemicals in welding fume is not possible, engineering controls, such as LEV, as well as personal protective equipment must be introduced.
