Flextraction introduces laminar flow booth for industrial applications
Suitable for use in environments where dust generation is unavoidable, cannot be contained or collected at source
Flextraction, a UK specialist in the dust and fume extraction industry, has introduced a laminar flow booth to its product portfolio and offers a modular unit in 2, 4 or 6m widths.
Suitable for use in environments where dust generation is unavoidable, cannot be contained or collected at source, the laminar flow booth can be used with a full width, standard height (900mm) work bench.
The unit provides laminar air flow across the operator, extracting airborne respirable dust particles towards the rear of the booth, away from the operator’s breathing zone and operating with constant air flow, it prevents contamination of the surrounding area.
Using three stages of disposable filtration to remove the dust, with the final stage being through a High Efficiency Particle Air (HEPA) filter, the air is re-circulated back into the working environment through a diffuser, offering the added benefit of saving on heat loss. The unit comes fitted with three visual indicators to enable monitoring of the condition of the filters.
While designed for the extraction of dust, there is an option for the unit to be adapted for the removal of fumes, either through ventilation to atmosphere or via an activated carbon, enabling recirculation of the clean air back into the workplace.
