Extraction arms

Remove pollutants directly at the source with Fumex spot extraction

Locating local exhaust ventilation close to the source of contamination is essential for effective removal of airborne particles and gases. The Swedish Work Environment Authority emphasizes that the short range of local exhaust ventilation makes this proximity particularly important to achieve sufficient capture rates and minimize dispersion in the premises. Our solutions enable precise and stable positioning for effective interception.

Durable materials and thoughtful design

Fumex spot extractors use aluminum in external joints for durability, light weight and easy cleaning. The design prioritizes:

• Low pressure drops, thanks to external joints and generally few details in the suction duct, minimizing resistance and improving airflow.
• Positional stability, especially in harsh environments, where arms can be pivoted and positioned precisely without moving undesirably.
• Easy cleaning and product care, especially on point-of-use extractors with hose, where Fumex’s Q-MaiD quick release system allows for fast disassembly. It simplifies cleaning, inspection and maintenance, reducing downtime and helping to maintain functionality and service life. The system does not cover all extraction points, but is currently used on the majority of hose-based solutions and is gradually being added to the range.

Extraction arms for industrial and laboratory environments

The needs differ between industrial operations and laboratories, which is reflected in our product range. In industrial environments, larger, high-capacity arms are often used to deal with welding fumes, grinding dust and oil mist. These designs have longer reach, larger dimensions and robust materials that can withstand harsh working conditions.

Laboratory environments, on the other hand, require compact and flexible solutions with high precision. This is where spot extractors with smaller dimensions and customized designs are used to effectively remove chemical vapours and particles close to the work surface. The combination of low noise, stable positioning and easy adjustment makes them particularly suitable for sensitive operations.
