Extracts solvent fumes
August 1st 2006 Solvent fumes given off by some continuous inkjet printers can be overpowering and unpleasant. A fume extractor system from Purex International offers a solution.
Purex uses two specially designed Delta Cowls, one to extract fumes from the print head, the other to extract from the vents on the printer control unit, ensuring that fumes do not pollute the work area. The cowls are attached to 38mm flexible stainless steel arms that are easy to position yet remain in place once installed.
Purex uses a blend of activated carbon and a chemisorbent media to filter the solvent fume from the extracted air. The chemisorbent material removes the solvent without heat being generated and the pellets onto which the chemical is adsorbed remove the heat from the process. Clean air is put back into the workplace.
Filters can be changed in seconds. More articles from Purex International Ltd: |
