Spark protection
09 March 2015
Available from Extractability, a division of Weldability-Sif, the new ProtectoSpark provides spark protection for the ProtectoXtract welding fume extraction unit and can also be retrofitted, prolonging the life of filters.

Consisting of two components, it features the baffle plate and the collecting tray. Using the ProtectoXtract welding fume extraction unit the polluted air is sucked in via extraction elements and taken inside the filter unit via the air intake. There the air hits the baffle plate and is led along the baffle plate towards the collecting tray.
At this point air deflects by 180°, getting into the particle filter. Induced by the deflection the bigger particles, as for example extinct spark particles, fall into the collecting tray and stay there.
