KEMPER VacuFil i high-vacuum extraction units

The VacuFil series of extraction units for torch extraction combine easy handling with needs-based extraction capacity. The VacuFil 125i, 150i and 250i digital unit variants automatically and continuously adjust the required air volume flows according to the individual torch characteristics. W3 approval also certifies that the digital VacuFil versions embody the highest level of protective welding equipment.

To ensure that the protective gas layer is not destroyed, the correct extraction capacity is important for torch extraction. Extraction torches require an individual volume flow for this. The new EN ISO 21094 DIN standard defines how this is to be determined. The VacuFil high-vacuum units feature automatic speed control, which means welders do not have to determine the extraction capacity manually. They act in accordance with the standards at all times and the protective gas layer is maintained.

VacuFil can be combined with any conventional welding torch. When welders couple their torch technology with the digital extraction units of the series, they select the torch of their choice on a touch display. The units then automatically adjust their output to the torch parameters stored in the unit’s software. The integrated extraction volume control enables the extraction systems to continuously adjust their performance during the welding process. This means that the highest possible airflow is used for extraction.

Depending on the danger intensity of the welding process used, the VacuFil 125i, 150i and 250i versions are available with different maximum extraction capacities. The W3 certification from the Institute for Occupational Safety and Health certifies that the systems meet the best possible protective welding equipment standards. VacuFil is suitable for detecting high levels of smoke and dust during industrial welding. The automatic filter cleaning system enables uninterrupted continuous operation.

All units are also available as analog VacuFil 125, 150 and 250 versions. Here, welders set the required extraction capacity manually. All new VacuFil variants are suitable as mobile extraction units for use at changing workplaces or when working with large work pieces. Welders automatically carry the torch-integrated extraction unit with them while they are welding.
