Safety 

 
PACE Fume Extraction systems are designed to reduce harmful contaminants in the work environment for 
achieving recommended health and safety requirements. Be sure to follow all safety guidelines contained here 
and in other relevant safety literature (i.e., Material Safety Data Sheets) provided with the substances and 
equipment producing the fumes to be extracted. 

 
Disclaimer 

 
PACE hereby disclaims all responsibility for any personal injury, property damage, fine, citation or penalty 
imposed by any government or private entity which results from any use, misuse or misapplication of this 
product, failure of the user to regularly maintain the product according to the recommended guidelines, or failure 
to adequately monitor fume extraction exhaust air and the ambient workplace air for the presence of harmful 
levels of gases, fumes and particulates. 
 
Compliance with all applicable environmental and personal safety regulations is the sole responsibility of the 
user. Adequate self-monitoring of exhaust air released, as well as monitoring of the ambient workplace air, is 
strongly recommended. To insure continued effective performance, the following guidelines must be followed: 

 

Dangers 

1.  PACE Fume Extractors are not intended as replacement of devices designed for removal of poorly 

adsorbed substances like carbon monoxide, methane, hydrogen, acetylene and other gases. Risk of 
serious injury or death, fire or explosion may result from improper use. If in doubt, contact your industrial 
hygienist or PACE. 

2.  Never use PACE Fume Extraction Systems to extract fumes from highly flammable liquids or gases 

such as Ether, Gasoline (Petrol) and others. Risk of serious injury, death, fire or explosion may result. 

3.  High concentrations of some airborne contaminants such as Methyl Ethyl Ketone, Cyclohexane, Ozone 

and others may have an exothermic reaction when contacted with activated carbon, possibly resulting in 
extreme heat generation and eventually combustion. PACE Fume Extraction Systems must not be used 
to extract fumes from these substances when high concentrations are present. 

4.  Failure to comply with the application and maintenance guidelines, filter replacement schedules, 

monitoring recommendations and safety guidelines contained herein and in other relevant product 
safety literature (i.e., Material Safety Data Sheets) provided with the substances and equipment 
producing the fumes to be extracted could result in risk of serious injury, fire or explosion. 

5.  Do not attempt to take out or replace filters while the machine is running. The internals of the machine 

can reach very high voltage.  There are also moving parts that can be very dangerous.  Only 
experienced personnel should perform routine checks and maintenance.  

Introduction 

 

It’s a fact … unsafe particulates and gases in the workplace result in increased 
absenteeism, employee turnover, worker’s compensation claims and lost 
productivity. Why depend on costly centralized air handling systems to purify the 
air when you can do so at the source? PACE

hazardous fumes locally and is suitable for benchtop soldering and electronic 
rework applications including handheld machining operations and light, limited use 
of solvents, adhesives, etc. The system represents the latest technology in
