SECTION 4 

 SPECIFICATIONS

4-1. General Description

The MWX-S weld fume collector is a mobile, high-volume vacuum system that uses a high efficiency, nanofiber-media cartridge filter to collect airborne

weld fume particles. Weld fumes are captured at the source by a unit-mounted extraction arm. The extraction arm uses locking joints and flexible tubing

to ensure the hood is placed near the source of the fumes. The fumes are pulled into the blower housing, discharged out the blower outlet, and filtered

through a mesh outlet screen (spark arrestor). (The mesh screen provides protection and prevents large sparks from passing into the filter housing.)

The air stream then passes through the filter where particles are filtered from the air. Cleaned air flows through the center of the filter and discharges

through the rear of the unit. Clean air is then re-circulated back to the work area. The MWX-S weld fume collector includes a semi-automatic filter

cleaning system to remove particles from the filter. When the Filter Cleaning switch is pressed, compressed air removes particles from the filter. The

particles then fall into a collection tray at the bottom of the unit.
The weld fume collector comes partially assembled and can be used with a 7 ft. (2.1 m) 10 Ft. (3 m) or 12 ft. (3.7 m) extraction arm.
