Fume extractor
Extractability, a division of Weldability-Sif, has launched ProtectoTwin, a twin high-pressure turbine with infinitely adjustable speed control that extracts and filters metal particulate fumes created in welding processes.

Supplied on swivel castors, the unit weighs just 25kg and measures 300 x 300 x 670mm so is easily manoeuvrable. It is suitable for applications such as small fabrication shops, single welding bays with on-torch fume extraction and maintenance welding.
The unit is supplied with a 2.5m hose and magnetic foot welding nozzle. It is fitted with a BIA M filter cartridge that filters hazardous substances with more than 99% efficiency. Dual ports facilitate local extraction via hood and torch extraction from a single unit.
The filter is automatically cleaned with compressed air, providing a long filter life. Particles are collected in a dust collection drawer and can be easily removed.
The ProtectoTwin operates from a 230V mains input supply, and works with a full 1.6kW of motor power. Despite this, with the nozzle installed the noise level reaches only 70dB(A).
Buyers can purchase a number of accessories to complement their new unit, including various nozzle shapes and sizes, all of which come with a magnetic base, and various lengths of suction hose. Also available are replacement filter cartridges and carbon brushes to help keep your unit at the top of its game.
The ProtectoTwin is available from stock for next-day delivery.
