Ersa solder fume extraction – essential for health!
Ersa solder fume extraction systems ensure a healthy climate around the workstation. Harmful particles and gases produced by soldering are extracted and filtered, protecting employees’ health on an ongoing basis.
Depending on the solder wire and flux used, substantial quantities of solder fumes can be generated during repairs and manual soldering work. As well as fine dust particles, these contain microparticles and gases that can enter the lungs and be harmful to health if they are inhaled over any length of time.
Back in 2004, the Professional Association of Precision Mechanics and Electrical Engineering (Berufsgenossenschaft der Feinmechanik und Elektrotechnik – BGFE) studied the effects of solder fume inhalation and concluded that workplace extraction systems (extraction hoods) combined with appropriate filter systems offered the best protection and the lowest concentration of harmful substances.
Compact, modular, quieter than ever before!
Ersa presents the new EASY ARM 1 and EASY ARM 2 solder fume extraction units, two highly effective extraction and filter systems that are also extremely energy-efficient in their operation (rated power: 40 W, 80 W). The solder fumes are caught as they are produced by nozzles and extraction arms, and cleaned in a three-stage filter. Dust, microparticles and gases are filtered out of the solder fumes, and the cleaned air then gently fed back into the ambient air.
Each extraction arm has a filter and a fan (110 m³/h). Each fan can be switched and controlled separately, or actuated from an Ersa soldering station simultaneously with stand-by operation. This means that extraction only takes place when soldering work is under way, to cut down on filter costs and reduce even further both the energy consump-tion and the noise level, although the units are already very quiet (50 dB). Ersa solder fume extraction units are essential for health – at any hand soldering station!
