1. The SifGun Fume Extraction Torch
The SifGun Fume Extraction Torch is a patented MIG welding torch with integrated extraction at
the nozzle of the welding torch. Therefore the extraction is close to the weld pool, so the fumes
coming from the welding process are extracted immediately. As a result the welder is exposed to
up to 95% less welding fumes.
Because of the conic shape of the nozzle, the protective gas exits at a high speed and is not
sucked away by the extraction. The quality of the welding process remains the same as with a
welding torch without integrated extraction.
The welding torch is delivered ‘ready to use’. It only has to be connected to a welding machine and
extraction unit. The SifGun Fume Extraction Torch is available in a air- and water-cooled version
The welding torches in this manual have been build in compliance with:
• EN 60974-7 Arc Welding Equipment Part 7: Torches
• 2006/95/EC Low Voltage Directive
• 2004/108/EC Electromagnetic Compatibility
The welding torch is only to be used by experienced personnel. It is not allowed for untrained
persons to install, handle or maintain our welding torches. Welding torches must be checked
regularly in order to guaranty optimum life time expectancy.
The user is fully responsible for possible defects arising out of misuse, inadequate maintenance,
damage, poor repair, or modifications by other parties than the original manufacturer, or his
authorised dealers.
The welding torch is a component of a complete welding system. The torch will generate an
electric arc when connected with the appropriate welding machine. Ensure that you read the
welding machine’s instructions thoroughly before using our welding torches.
The manufacturer reserves the right, whenever necessary and without prior notice, to amend
these instructions as a result of clerical or printing errors, incorrect information, or the addition of
improvements.
