Ventilation and Fume Extraction
Exhaust Fan
To prevent the accumulation of hazardous vapors, sufficient ventilation must
be provided by the customer to exchange the air in the area surrounding the
FB7600 printer. The FB7600 printer is equipped with a built in fume extraction
system but nevertheless the customer must ensure that the site and, in
particular, the area surrounding the FB7600 printer complies with all
applicable local legislation and guidance relating to ventilation and HP
recommends a minimum of
4 air changes per hour
within a 4 meter area
surrounding the printer. Detailed air ventilation designs are based on site
specific information and equipment. The customer should consult a
ventilation/fume extraction professional familiar with local workplace and
environmental legislation and guidance.

produce by the UV lamp should be extracted from the production area, using
an adequate UV blower. The silencer dimensions: 12" (300 mm) diameter, 47.2"
(1200 mm) length.
The UV blower should be positions inside the building as far as possible from
the printer. The maximum distance is 15 m (see

blower to the outside atmosphere (out of the building) or to the site central
extraction system.
