Applications
For use in situations where external venting is impractical and hydrocarbon vapour and gas filtration is necessary. Applications include the handling and use of Electrochemicals. (Cleaning solvents, conformal coatings etc) resins, sealants, adhesives, solder pots and solder irons. Also used in orthopaedics and dental laboratories for controlling staff exposure to, typically, methyl methacrylate, cyanoacrylate adhesives and for the safe weighing of hazardous powders.
Optional accessories available include Part No’s HE495 (T460S-C) and HE705 (T670S-C) pleated particulate filter for fine dust/powder and solder fume capture to 0.3-micron particles. Stainless steel spillage trays and perforated grids.
These units are designed for operator protection whereby gases, fumes, vapours and particulate contaminants are filtered. Cleaned air is exhausted at the rear of the cabinet.

FILTRATION
The particulate filter (Ref. 5) is a three stage, graduated fibre filter. The open structure of the first stage discourages surface loading and promotes depth filtration, ensuring a high dust holding capacity and reducing resistance to airflow. The denser backing filter and final scrim material provides finer filtration to 5 micron.
An optional pleated HEPA filter to 0.3 microns is available for high-grade filtration, typically to arrest solder fume (smoke) particulates ranging in size from 0.3 to 10 microns and potentially harmful fine powders.
NB: Solder fume consists of 95% particulates and 5% gases.
The activated carbon filter (Ref. 3 below) will adsorb a high percentage of solvent vapour and gases. Brief examples are given below of tests undertaken to assess the effectiveness of the filters. A Gastec pump and colorimetric adsorption tubes were used to measure vapour and gas concentrations.
1) Application: Protective coating for electronics applied by brush.
Contaminant: Organic solvents (total hydrocarbon adsorption tubes were used)
Operator exposure working on a bench top was 180ppm. Operator exposure using the fume hood was not detectable. Exhaust air from the rear of the cabinet was less than 10ppm (i.e. not detectable).
2) Application: Manufacture of dental prosthetics and hearing aid mouldings.
Contaminant: Methyl methacrylate
Operator exposure working on a bench top was 200ppm. Operator exposure using the fume hood was not detectable. Exhaust air from the rear of the cabinet was less than 10ppm (i.e. not detectable).
3) Application: Electronic cleaning process using aerosol spray.
Contaminant: Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA)
Operator exposure working on a bench top was 1500ppm. Operator exposure using the fume hood was not detectable. Exhaust air from the rear of the cabinet was less than 10ppm (i.e. not detectable).
NB: Specially treated carbon filters are available on request for specialist applications.
