3.2 Use in accordance with the intended purpose
The ProfiMaster device is designed for the extraction of welding fumes generated
during welding by electric arc in the place of their origination and their filtering.
Hazardous substances released during the work process are captured by the
exhaust nozzle. They are then brought into the filtration device together with the
exhausted air. Here they are routed through a primary filtration mat for coarse
particles, and the main filter, which, with a 99% efficiency, separates also the fine
particles of smoke that could get into lungs. The cleaned air is sucked in by the fan
and conveyed back into the workspace.
During the process of exhausting the welding fumes containing carcinogenic
substances, generated from alloyed steel welding (e.g. stainless steel), in
accordance with official regulations, only certified and properly approved
devices with "internal air circulation" are permitted for use.
The ProfiMaster IFA device is approved for the extraction of welding fumes that
arise from welding low-alloy and high-alloy steels, and meets the requirements
for welding fumes separation efficiency class W3, according to the
DIN EN ISO 15012-1 standard.
During welding operations in Germany it is necessary in principle to comply
with the regulations TRGS 528 "Welding Works" (Technical rules for welding
works). When extracting welding fumes containing carcinogenic substances
(e.g. chromates, nickel oxides, etc.) the operator must also comply with the
requirements of TRGS 560.
Technical specifications also include dimensions and other data regarding the
ProfiMaster device to be taken into account.
