Selecting Exhaust Arms, Nozzles and Cabinets The selection of the fume capture device should be guided by your application and work habits. Very often the user has a certain preference for a certain nozzle design. Review the “Application” column, nozzle styles and airflow ratings of the table below and select an exhaust arm / nozzle which suits best your needs. All exhaust arms are made of ESD material and are supplied with a mounting bracket and two C-clamps.

Commonly Asked Questions Are fumes hazardous to my health? Yes, most industrial fumes contain more dangerous chemicals than cigarette fumes. Solder fumes, for example can cause minor respiratory symptoms but also occupational asthma, and skin allergies. Lead-free solders often contain fluxes made up even of harsher chemicals. Check the safety data sheets which identify these health hazards.
Do I need to use a pre-filter? A pre-filter is highly recommended as it prolongs the life of the more expensive HEPA filter. Will your unit filter the chemicals from the supplied list? If the chemical is in a particulate form, the HEPA filter will remove it efficiently to safe levels. If the chemical is a gas, we recommend checking the chemical against a list of substances which have been tested for absorption by activated carbon. This list provides an absorption efficiency guide for many common chemicals.
