GENERAL INFORMATION



Airex Industries offers a complete line of economical, sturdy, and efficient source capture arms. Our simple design utilizes a lightweight aluminum skeleton to support a heavy-duty flex hose and spun aluminum/or spun steel hood. The design eliminates the problems with complex parts, expensive replacement costs and special tools that may be required for service and maintenance. Custom sizes are available upon request.



ADVANTAGES / FEATURES

  • Local removal of contaminants (captures pollutants at source)
  • Simple and efficient design dramatically reduces service and maintenance costs
  • No moving parts; no replaceable filters, robust construction
  • Ability to handle extremely high dust concentrations
  • High temperature and pressure capability
  • Low capital investment and maintenance costs
  • Compact (in most applications)
(Graphic tables, flow charts coming soon.)




THEORY OF OPERATION



HOW CAPTURE ARMS WORK [SOURCE CAPTURE]

  • Directed towards the source of the emanations by the worker, the capture arm’s hood is the inlet by which the contaminants will be collected.
  • An assortment of friction pads and steel springs help with the arm’s mobility, flexibility and versatility while at the same time providing it the needed strength and stability to stay at any desired position.
  • Connected to an existing ventilation system, or to an externally mounted blower, the capture arm uses the available suction power in order to seize the possible contaminants away from the critical breathing zone.


(Illustrations explaining the inner workings of a capture arm or video of the arm in use/action coming soon.)
