Chapter VI - Optional Items
When purchasing the LaserPro VENUS from your local authorized GCC distributor, you will be provided a
chance to purchase optional items to enhance your experience with your system. If anytime after the
purchase of your VENUS, would you like to purchase any optional item, please contact your local
authorized GCC distributor.
6.1 Fume Extraction System
To properly remove dust, vaporized materials and chemical smoke from the working area and
machine, it is necessary to install a suitable Fume Extraction system. The Fume Extraction system
and other components are readily available from your local authorized GCC distributor or you can
elect to purchase and install one yourself with components found at your local industrial supply store.
LaserPro's Fume Extraction Systems are specifically designed to prevent personnel from inhaling
hazardous fumes and dust generated by the laser process. Available for all LaserPro engravers, the
LaserPro Fume Extraction System represents the latest in fume extraction and odor reduction
technology for all types of applications. Quiet operation, high vacuum capacity, compact design and
long life expectancy are but a few outstanding features. Each LaserPro Fume Extraction System is
powered by a maintenance-free, continuous-running turbine. In order to ensure personnel safety and
legal compliance, the LaserPro Fume Extraction System is CE-compliant for Europe. To purchase a
LaserPro Fume Extraction System, contact your local authorized GCC distributor
INSTALLATION (Self-Assembled Unit):
1) Purchase an exhaust system at your local industrial supply store, we recommend you have a
contractor install the exhaust system. We highly recommend you install the exhaust system
outside of the building for both noise considerations and if it does not possess filtering
capabilities.
2) Mount the exhaust system in an obvious and accessible location, not too far from the VENUS,
so it can be routinely switched on prior to laser engraving. The maximal distance you should
mount the exhaust system away from the VENUS
depends on the blower’s vacuum capacity.
We recommend you consult with the vendor regarding the unit’s vacuum force, maximal
distances, based on the available models.
3) Connect rigid and smooth walled tubing such as PVC or sheet metal with an 8
” diameter to the
ventilation opening located on the rear side of the VENUS. (As shown in the picture below).
Try to keep this tubing as straight as possible as bends reduce the exhaust efficiency. Use
the appropriate sized tube clamps and sealants to ensure a tight and secure attachment.
