Workplace Diluter

The smart solution without major ductwork 

 

In some applications `at source` extraction, canopy hoods and Arms are not an option, for example if metalwork pieces are too big to be covered by extraction arms, as in the ship-building and transport industry. Or if welders constantly move in between positions. So, we have developed a general filtration system that can control welding fumes in large facilities: the Workplace Diluter system.

This solution can be used in large workshops with various welding processes, changing activities, crane transportation and locations where ductwork is difficult to install. The result: reducing the concentration of fumes to lower levels, guaranteeing a cleaner working environment!
 
Flexible solution

 

Installing the AES Workplace Diluter system is easy as you do not need any ductwork. It does not only save ductwork (thus labour) costs, it is also a very flexible solution for facilities with many welding processes, changing locations constantly.

 

Minor investment maximum result

The Diluter system consists of three main components: the filter unit, a fan and the Diluter itself. The Diluter is an air circulation unit with six multidirectional outlet nozzles. The unit re-circulates the cleaned air into the workshop by means of the outlet nozzles. The nozzles can be rotated to optimise extraction. The airflows from the nozzles can be controlled individually making the system unique. Positioning the nozzles inside the welding fume layer gives the best result (usually between four and six metres). The main benefit is the relatively small investment for controlling welding fumes in your plant.

 
To prevent the build-up of higher concentrations of the fumes, it will be necessary to provide additional ventilation.The total air volume that needs to be moved by the Diluter depends on the setting and varies between 0 and 100,000 m3/h.

The Diluter system has been designed especially for light to medium welding processes. Major benifit is that air is cleaned and returned to the workplace thus reducing heatloss on the building and eventually saving money!
