Hastings Air Energy Control Will Showcase FumeVac FV-500-20

WELDER SHORTAGE? LOOK AT YOUR AIR QUALITY

Working in a fume-ridden environment wouldn’t rank high on any employee satisfaction survey, and yet conditions like this are all too common. Years ago, this was simply considered part of the job.  But not today. Younger generations are thinking twice about jobs with poor working conditions – conditions that could pose long-term health issues.  We must strive to get better, not only for our collective health, but also to attract talented employees that we are in such dire need of today. “High-Vacuum Source Capture Systems” are one solution and will be featured at Hastings Air Energy Control’s booth.

THE EXTRACTION POWER FOR MULTIPLE STATIONS IN A COMPACT FOOTPRINT

At IMTS, Hastings Air Energy Control Inc. will be at Booth 237552 and showcase the FumeVac FV-500-20. The machine offers a lean solution for all your dust and fume extraction needs. It combines the functionalities of both traditional vacuum and rooftop dust collector units into a compact 2-in-1 floor level unit with only minimal ducting, as compared to traditional systems. This system includes extraction of welding fumes using source capture ErgoMax MIG guns. With your needs in mind, the FV-500-20 was designed to be a stationary or semi-mobile vacuum system with enough power to handle extraction requirements of multiple workstations in a compact design. The noise reducing cabinet allows for installation adjacent to the workstation. The FV-500-20 comes standard with two primary filter cartridges, a secondary filter cartridge (MERV-16), and an automatic filter cleaning system. The FV-500-20’s exhaust vent’s unique design also offers you the choice to evacuate or recirculate the filtered air as needed by simply connecting a 6” hose, duct, or the optional silencer.

FEATURES & BENEFITS
