SAFETY PRODUCTS ProStar Fume Eliminator ™ manual or automatic Safety Booster Easy-to-use environmental filtering equipment increases productivity. People working in the welding industry risk exposure to welding smoke, grinding dust and other contaminants. These harmful fumes are irritating to the eyes, nose, chest and respiratory tract. When welding fumes enter the lungs, they decrease the absorption of oxygen into the bloodstream and can lead to serious illnesses. Gastrointestinal effects, such as nausea, vomiting and cramps have also been linked to welding smoke. ProStar Fume Eliminator When the work can’t come to the shop, take the portable filter solution to the work. The ProStar Fume Eliminator removes contaminants at the source before they enter the breathing zone and is the most cost effective solution to the problem. Fume particles and other contaminants are effectively prevented from poisoning the welder’s respiratory organs. Supplying your employees with the necessary tools leads to less stress on health and improved productivity–a win/win situation. The ProStar Fume Eliminator is the ideal solution for welding fume extraction where traditional evacuation is not possible. The units are very easy to bring along for service jobs in the field, as well as for welding inside containers, metal tubes or in other tight spaces. Available in two models, manual or automatic start/ stop. Automatic has an on/off function that senses when welding begins and continues running for 5 to 25 seconds after welding has stopped. Automatic model also comes equipped with a “filter full” indicator.
