BEN-120 Solder Fume Extractor

BEN-120 Solder Fume Extractor

“The simplest, completely self-contained high-level particulate filtration solder fume extraction unit ever!”

The ADD Filtration BEN-120 Solder Fume Extractor (or “Ben” as we’ve affectionately named it) is a bench top unit designed to remove at source solder fume and particles created during the hand soldering process. It has an aerodynamic inlet design that effectively draws irritating solder fumes away from the operator’s breathing zone. The unit easily fits onto any bench top and is ideal for low-volume industrial hand soldering and for the serious hobbyists hand soldering.

Features

• Pre, Carbon, Particle filters fitted as standard.
• Optional higher grade particle filter and HEPA filter are also available. See BEN-120 filters.
• Extremely compact and lightweight – simply move from station to station, plug in and switch on.
• 12 V DC fan assembly with external AC adaptor supplied to connect to any 100-240 V AC mains supply.
• Variable speed control.
• Easy filter change – just takes seconds!

Benefits

• Completely self contained – no expensive add-ons such as arms, hoses, brackets, hoods, stands etc...
  “Solder fume forms a sticky residue in pumps, fans & ductwork unless these are protected. This residue can rapidly lead to poor extraction, premature fan failure and duct blockage”
• High level of filtration – not just a basic carbon filter which just moves contaminated air around.
  “Solder fume particles are typically 0.5-1.0 microns in diameter requiring high efficiency particle filters for removal. The coarse carbon filters usually fitted in these units have been found in tests by HSE to remove only a small proportion of the harmful constituents of the fume”
