The CMAXX dust and fume collector can be used for source capture of weld fumes, but it can also be used as an ambient fume control system. The modular design of the CMAXX allows adding multiple collectors if the need for air filtration increases.
As part of an ambient weld fume system, the CMAXX with DeltaMAXX nanofiber filters pulls air from the work space, filters it, and either vents it outdoors or returns it to the facility. With a correctly sized dust and fume collector, this process minimizes exposure to fumes and keeps the entire area clean.
An ambient system works well for facilities where source capture methods, like hoods or fume arms, cannot cover all the places where welders work. For example, if the facility produces large pieces of equipment and the welders move around to work on different parts, an ambient system can remove fumes from the whole work area.
For hazardous materials such as stainless steel, a source capture method may be necessary to keep exposure within safe limits. Source capture means the use of hoods, weld arms, or downdraft tables to remove fumes at the point where they are generated.
Consult with the Imperial Systems team to determine whether source capture or ambient weld fume control will work best for your application. Whichever you choose, the modular CMAXX design makes sure that your dust and fume collection system can grow with your business.
