The Mobile Fume Extractor is a portable air purification system designed for localized extraction and filtration of hazardous fumes, vapors, and particles in laboratory environments. The system features a flexible extraction arm with 375mm suction inlet diameter and high-efficiency filtration capability of 99.995% at 0.3μm particles. Operating at air velocities of 0.3-0.5 m/s with noise levels ≤75dB(A), the unit provides effective containment of airborne contaminants during chemical handling, sample preparation, and analytical procedures.
The mobile design allows researchers to position the extraction system precisely where needed, eliminating the requirement for fixed ducting infrastructure. The compact footprint (500×500×980mm) and dual-voltage compatibility (110V/220V) enable deployment across diverse laboratory settings where temporary or supplemental fume extraction is required.
How It Works
The Mobile Fume Extractor operates through mechanical air extraction combined with high-efficiency particulate filtration. The system draws contaminated air through the flexible extraction arm using a centrifugal fan, creating localized negative pressure zones that capture fumes and particles at their source. Air velocity is maintained at 0.3-0.5 m/s through the 375mm diameter suction inlet to ensure effective capture of airborne contaminants.
Extracted air passes through a multi-stage filtration system achieving 99.995% efficiency at 0.3μm particle size. The filtration mechanism relies on mechanical interception, impaction, and diffusion to remove submicron particles, chemical vapors, and aerosols from the airstream. Clean air is discharged back into the laboratory environment after contaminant removal.
The mobile design incorporates a weighted base unit (61kg purification system) connected to a lightweight extraction arm (15kg) via flexible ducting, allowing precise positioning while maintaining system stability during operation.

Practical Tips
Position the 375mm inlet 15-30cm from contaminant sources to optimize capture efficiency while avoiding interference with laboratory procedures.
Why: Proper positioning balances capture effectiveness with workflow accessibility.
Monitor pressure differential across the filtration system weekly to detect filter loading before efficiency degradation occurs.
Why: Early detection prevents breakthrough and maintains the 99.995% removal efficiency rating.
Verify air velocity at the inlet quarterly using a calibrated anemometer to ensure 0.3-0.5 m/s flow rate is maintained.
Why: Velocity verification confirms capture performance and identifies potential system degradation.
Ensure stable positioning on level surfaces before operation, given the 67kg system weight and flexible arm configuration.
Why: Proper setup prevents tipping hazards during arm repositioning and laboratory movement.
Check electrical connections and voltage compatibility (110V/220V ±10%) if system fails to achieve specified air velocity.
Why: Voltage variations outside the ±10% range can reduce fan performance and extraction effectiveness.
Document filter replacement dates and pressure readings to establish maintenance schedules specific to your contamination loads.
Why: Usage-based maintenance optimizes filter life while preventing performance degradation.
Allow the system to run for 5-10 minutes after procedures to clear residual contaminants from the workspace air.
Why: Extended operation ensures complete removal of suspended particles that may settle after source elimination.
