Advanced fume control offers extended filter life
Hazardous fumes and dust from wave soldering, laser marking and other
demanding production processes are dealt with safely and reliably by an
advanced purification system designed by a British company.
Purex Powerflow fume purification and extraction machines from Purex International, connect to standard or custom extraction manifolds,
and offer extended filter life, reverse airflow filtration, temperature
and flow control, ease of maintenance and worldwide legislation compliance.
System controls can be integrated with production control circuits.
Using the company's IQ2000 software package with multi-lingual menu,
up to 31 Powerflow systems can be controlled from one PC. Minimum levels
of extraction and hazardous gas particulate sensing can be set for each
process, and failsafe controls will stop a production line if the extraction
flow rate falls below the pre-set figure. Downtime is reduced by Fume
Doctor Diagnosis, a feature that enables Purex engineers to run
diagnostic tests online and re-set controls remotely to remedy a problem.
Five Purex Powerflow machines are available, housed in corrosion-resistant
castor-mounted stainless steel cabinets and designed for installation
with reflow, curing, and wave ovens, lasers, selective soldering, screen
printers and conformal coating machines. A special vacuum control feature
allows accurate temperature profiles to be maintained in wave soldering
and reflow ovens, thereby minimising the risk of thermal shock and offering
improved product quality and lower reject rates.
Smallest in the range is the 210m3/h capacity 8000/210FC model, especially
suitable for laser processes, with dimensions of 720mm high x 455mm wide
x 480mm deep and weighing 39kg. The biggest machine is the 5000 m3/h capacity
350kg 8000/5000 model, suitable for wave soldering applications, with
dimensions of 1810mm x 1210mm x 885mm.
