K4 Fume Extraction Torch
Fronius K4 Fume Extraction torches –
Efficient fume extraction
During welding operation, fumes are released and inhaled by the welder or other persons in the surrounding area. These fume particles can be harmful to health above a certain concentration. In order to ensure optimum protection of the welder’s health and to minimise health risks, the use of powerful extraction systems is essential.
In order to optimally shield the welder from welding fumes, Fronius offers the new generation K4 Fume extraction torches, which fulfil our customer’s requirements. These products meet the highest quality demands and guarantee long-term commitment.
Welding fumes are directly extracted at their source (weld seam) and all employees in the entire plant are therefore protected against toxic vapours and ultra-fine dust particles, which settle in the alveoli in the lungs.
The standard version includes an additional air regulator on the welding torch, where one can set the absorbed volume of air. The extraction performance is adjusted by using the additional air regulator. In order to prevent an unintended extraction of protective gas (e.g. during out-of-position welding), the additional air regulator can be opened. Thereby, the extraction channel inside the torch is narrowed, additional air is drawn in and the extraction performance is reduced.
