Industrial Fume Extractors
Fanquip’s Fume Extractors are designed to maximise dust removal using an air mover, engineered using the Venturi principle to increase pressure differential, improving extraction efficiency. Fanquip's industrial Fume Extractors capture notorious airborne particles such as welding fumes, grinding dust, dry dust, and soldering fumes.
How to choose the right fume extractor?
Choosing the right type of fume extractor depends on the application, type, and volume of fumes produced, as well as the need for portability. For confined spaces, a compact purging fan is ideal due to its small size and effective air movement. Mobile fume extractors, offer high capacity and flexibility, making them suitable for larger workshops and manufacturing centres. Portable blower extractors, provide a powerful solution for various industrial settings. Fanquip's industrial fume extractors, designed using the Venturi principle, maximise dust removal and improve extraction efficiency. If you're unsure of your requirements, using Fanquip’s product finder can help you choose the right product tailored to your specific needs.
In what environments are fume extractors necessary?
A fume extractor is necessary in environments where hazardous fumes, smoke, or airborne particles are generated during work processes.
Welding workshops – Welding produces fumes containing metals and chemicals that are harmful if inhaled.
Laboratories – Chemical experiments and processes can release toxic fumes and vapors.
Soldering stations – Electronics assembly involving soldering produces smoke and fumes that may contain lead or other harmful substances.
Automotive workshops – Vehicle repairs, particularly involving paint or chemicals, can release fumes.
Painting and coating applications – Spray paints and coatings emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and solvents that require fume extraction.
Plastic and rubber manufacturing – Melting or molding processes release fumes and harmful gases.
Food processing – Smoke and steam from cooking processes may require fume extraction to maintain air quality.
In these environments, fume extractors help protect workers by filtering out harmful particles and maintaining safe air quality.
