Eco-Fume Extraction Solutions
Addressing three heavy-fume industrial welding conditions — enclosed space welding, high-current continuous operations, and heavy component manufacturing — we offer fume extraction solutions fully compliant with EN 1093-5 and ISO 15012 standards.
Our systems achieve ≥95% fume capture efficiency while reducing energy consumption by 15%, setting a new benchmark for green welding.
01｜Spot Welding in Automotive Manufacturing (Low-Current Intermittent Operation)
Working Environment and Hazard Level
Typical Setup:
Resistance spot welding stations on automotive body assembly lines (0.8mm galvanized sheets).
Fume Characteristics:
● Zinc vapor concentration >45%, reaching 8–12 mg/m³ (three times higher than OSHA exposure limits)
● Duty Cycle: 3 minutes welding / 2 minutes idle, up to 200 start-stops per day
Recommended Solution
FE 230
Cooling Method: Gas Cooled
Duty Cycle:60% — 230A (CO₂), 200A (Mixed Gas)
Wire Size: Φ0.8–1.2 mm
Advantages:
● High responsiveness to frequent on-off cycles
● Efficient capture of zinc vapor emissions
● Lightweight and ergonomic for high-frequency operations
02｜Section Welding in Shipbuilding (Mid-Current Continuous Operation)
Recommended Solution
FE 340
Cooling Method: Gas Cooled
Duty Cycle:60% — 340A (CO₂), 290A (Mixed Gas)
Wire Size: Φ0.8–1.2 mm
Advantages:
● High-efficiency particulate capture for submicron fumes
● Designed for long-duration continuous welding
● Maintains consistent extraction performance with minimal maintenance
Working Environment and Hazard Level
Typical Setup:
Welding double-bottom sections of ship hulls (10mm AH36 steel plates).
Fume Characteristics:
●Manganese compound concentration of 5–8 mg/m³ (four times the safety threshold)
● Fume particle size between 0.1–1μm
● Continuous operation: 8 hours per shift with welding time exceeding 70%
