Electrical Safety 

The FumeCab 700 system has been designed to meet the 
safety requirements of the Low Voltage Directive 
2006/95/EC (previously numbered 73/23/EEC) 

Warning 

When working with the pump/motor housing open, Live 
230/115 volt mains components are accessible. Ensure that 
the rules and regulations for work on live components are 
always observed. 

 

Important 

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury: 

1.

 

Always isolate the system from the mains power 
supply before removing the pump/motor access 
panel. 

2.

 

Use only as described in this manual. 

3.

 

Connect the system to a properly grounded outlet. 

 
Dangers to eyes, breathing and skin 

Once used, the filters within the FumeCab 700 system may 
contain a mixture of particulates, some of which may be 
sub-micron size. When the used filters are moved it may 
agitate some of this particulate, which could get into the 
breathing zone and eyes of the operative. Additionally, 
depending on the materials being used, the particulate may 
be an irritant to the skin.  

This unit should not be used on processes with sparks of 
flammable materials or with explosive dusts and gases, 
without implementation of additional precautions. 

 

Caution: When changing used filters always wear a mask, 
safety shoes, goggles and gloves.

 

 

Carbon selection 

Please note that the media within the gas filter fitted in the 
FumeCab 700 is capable of adsorbing a wide range of 
organic compounds. However, it is the responsibility of the 
user to ensure it is suitable for the particular application it is 
being used on.
