90% of companies don't know about these 4 misunderstandings in the use of welding fume extractors

With the continuous strengthening of environmental protection inspections, the environmental impact assessment has also been valued by many welding and cutting workshops, and environmental protection equipment such as welding fume purifiers have been installed.

However, during the use of the equipment, if it is not operated correctly, it is easy to cause problems such as the ineffective dust removal effect .

Today, I will tell you about the four major misunderstandings of welding fume extractors. Maybe 90% of enterprises have not paid attention to them.

Come and see if you have similar problems!

Welding fume extractors come into direct contact with open flames.

Welding fume extractors are mainly used to deal with the smoke and dust generated during welding, cutting, etc. There are often open flames in these processing sites. If the welding fume extractors are directly exposed to open flames, equipment parts may be damaged.

Of course, it is inevitable that there will be sporadic sparks during the dust removal process of the equipment. In response to such problems, POWERSPACE products have adopted triple safety protection of spark catchers, high-efficiency metal fire screens, and high-quality nano flame-retardant filter materials,safety is ensured to the greatest extend.

Even so, we still recommends that you pay attention to the trend of open flames during use, try to avoid direct contact with the welding fume extractor, and reduce unnecessary equipment wear and tear.

Flux-cored wire is used during welding or there is oil on the surface of the weldment

This type of weldment will contain a large amount of oil mist in the smoke and dust generated during welding. This oil mist is viscous and will adhere to the surface of the filter element, and it is difficult for the cleaning device to remove it, which will speed up the clogging of the filter element. It is easy to be unable to smoke, and even completely block the filter element, and the dust removal function is almost lost.

Therefore, enterprises should consult professional technicians when purchasing welding fume extractors. For example, Power Space will go to the site to conduct surveys before recommending welding fume extractors, and design the most suitable solutions according to the actual working conditions to ensure the most ideal. dust removal effect.

Deliberately prolong the replacement cycle of the filter cartridge

In order to save the investment in environmental protection and dust removal, some enterprises do not replace the filter cartridge even if the filter cartridge of the welding fume purifier has reached a saturation state or is completely blocked, and deliberately prolongs the service life of the filter cartridge, so that the dust removal efficiency of the welding fume extractor will definitely drop, which greatly affects the dust removal effect.

Therefore, the filter cartridge must be replaced regularly, and the specific replacement cycle depends on the on-site working conditions and the quality of the filter cartridge itself. Power Space welding fume extractor adopts imported nano flame retardant filter cartridge, which can be used for up to 8000 hours. This filter cartridge has better air permeability and lower air resistance than ordinary filters. And its filtration precision reaches 0.3 microns, and the purification efficiency is very high.

The operation time of the welding fume extractor is not controlled

Welding fume extractors cannot be used regardless after they are installed. Usually, the equipment needs to be shut down for cleaning after a total of 8 hours of operation. If you think it is too troublesome, you can actually choose Power Space, a welding fume extractor with high-efficiency pulse automatic cleaning function. It not only has online automatic pulse cleaning, but also offline pulse cleaning, which can effectively clean the filter cartridge. Generally, there is no need to clean the filter cartridge separately, which can ensure the continuous progress of production work!

All in all, no matter how good the welding fume extractor is, if it is not used correctly, it will not be effective. Therefore, the above misunderstandings must be avoided as much as possible, so as to save the economic cost as much as possible on the basis of ensuring the dust removal effect!
