Powertech Pollution Controls The Finest Welding
Fume Extractor Solution!
Welders are exposed to many known carcinogens
that accompany the welding fumes coming out of
welding operations. These workers have thus been
researched to present an increased risk of
different types of cancers, as compared to those
who have never been exposed to poisonous welding
fumes. A 78 risk of mesothelioma, 40 risk of
bladder cancer, 30 risk of kidney cancer, and
16 risk of lung cancer are seen to be found in
those associated with welding operations. These
may not only include welders, but also those who
work in close proximity to the welding
operations, even though they do not themselves
execute direct welding. Even the smallest of
particles, when remain suspended in the air, can
endanger workers for up to 48 hours after the
welding operations! This makes it absolutely
important to capture these particles as soon as
they are generated. This is where a welding fume
extractor becomes important to eliminate and
reduce the spread of welding fumes. With over
years of experience in welding fume extraction,
Powertech Pollution Controls is an established
market leader in providing such extractor
systems. But what exactly is it that sets their
fume extractors apart from the rest? Why choose
Powertech Pollution Controls? Powertech Pollution
Controls Fumekiller is a high-efficiency
two-stage electrostatic filtration system that
is designed and developed for the capture

and control of not only fumes, but also smoke,
mist, and fine dust. The small hazardous
particles enter the electrostatic filter through
the suction inlet, wherein they first enter the
pre-filter where large particles are removed. The
finer particles then enter the electrostatic
module where they receive a positive charge
between a series of parallel aluminium plates.
These charged particles then pass through
another series of aluminium plates that are
negatively charged, thus sticking to these
oppositely charged plates, and remaining adhered
to then even when the electrostatic filter is
switched off. The clean air then escapes through
the outlet, where the post filter evenly
distributes the air through the electrostatic
modules. Powertech Pollution Controls Fumekiller
is different from other conventional systems, in
a variety of ways. Some unique aspects that sets
it apart include Re-usable filters Most systems
use disposable filters to capture welding fumes.
As these filters are used over time, they become
loaded, which compromises the flow rate an
extraction power, unless the filters are
replaced. This means the cost of maintaining the
extraction power is high, as you need to keep
replacing the filters frequently. But, with
Powertech Pollution Controls Fumekiller, this
need is eliminated, as these systems use filters
that can be many times washable and reusable
during the life of the equipment. This makes them
longer lasting, which keeps running costs
significantly low, as compared to conventional
mechanical filters. Flexible extraction arms The
Fumekiller can incorporate the usage of the
extractor arm, which allows the user to position
a suction hood to capture fumes close to the
generation spot, with complete ease and
flexibility. The arm can be swivelled by hand
about 270 degrees, and can be positioned easily
within a nominal distance specified for each
arm. The maintenance and running costs are low,
as all the components are built for continuous,
safe, reliable, and efficient use. This system
thus contributes to a safer and healthier work
environment, where toxic airborne pollutants are
removed right next to the source. Safety measures

The Fumekiller has been incorporated with further
safety features like limit switches, motor
protection, and high voltage fault trip
circuitry, for safe, reliable, and efficient
functioning. When to use Powertech Pollution
Controls Fumekiller? Powertech Pollution
Controls Fumekiller can be used in a variety of
applications like welding, induction hardening,
heat treatment, ink spray, oil quenching,
annealing, soldering, wire drawing, dip tinning,
rubber curing, die casting, wave soldering, and
many more. The Fumekiller can also be used to
capture fine powder from tabletting, capsuling,
and finishing operations! So, if youre
