FAQs
What types of extraction systems are available?
There are various extraction systems. AL-KO offers the right system for all processes and applications:
- Raw Air Dust Extractors – remove cost-effectively coarse and fine particles close to the source.
- Pure Air Dust Extractors – filter the extracted process air and safely return it to the workspace. Energy-efficiently and in compliance with H3 residual dust content < 0.1 mg.
- Welding Fume Filters – capture and remove harmful fumes generated during welding.
- Compact Filter Systems – space-saving solutions for smaller production environments.
- Paint Mist Extraction – ideal for painting and spraying tasks to remove paint particles.
- Industrial Vacuums – mobile extraction systems for flexible applications.
Why is an extraction system important in the industry?
AL-KO extraction systems are essential for protecting both people and machinery. They remove harmful dust, chips, fumes, and gases, helping to comply with occupational safety regulations. Additionally, they prevent deposits on machines and products, improve air quality and the quality of manufactured products, and reduce energy costs through heat recovery.
How does an extraction system work?
AL-KO extraction systems remove pollutants from the air in several steps:
- Capture: Contaminated air is extracted directly at the source.
- Transport: The polluted air is conveyed to the filter unit via duct or hose systems.
- Filtration: Specialized filter systems clean the air of particles and pollutants.
- Discharge or Recirculation: The cleaned air is either discharged outside or recirculated back into the building energy-efficiently. Fresh air can also be supplied from outside through a heat exchanger.
What is a welding fume filter?
A welding fume filter is a specialized filter unit designed to capture and clean fumes generated during welding. These fumes contain hazardous particles such as metal oxides, which can be harmful to health. AL-KO’s multi-stage filter systems efficiently remove these pollutants from the air to ensure workplace safety and employee health.
What is meant by extraction technology?
Extraction technology encompasses all technologies for removing air pollutants in industry and craftsmanship. This includes:
- Extraction systems for removing dust, chips, and gases.
- Filter systems for cleaning the extracted air.
- Air duct systems such as pipes, hoses, and capture systems.
- Control systems that regulate extraction performance as needed and energy-efficiently.
AL-KO Extraction Technology significantly contributes to a clean, safe, and efficient working environment.
In which industries are extraction systems used?
Extraction systems are used in numerous industries and craft businesses to filter pollutants from the air and improve the working environment. Key application areas include:
- Wood and Metal Processing – removes chips, dust, and fumes for safe production.
- Plastics and Chemical Industry – captures harmful particles and fumes.
- Welding and Soldering – extraction of fumes to comply with legal workplace limits.
- Food Industry – reduces flour dust and powder particles for hygienic production conditions.
The use of efficient extraction systems from AL-KO not only helps comply with environmental and occupational safety regulations but also improves air quality and extends the lifespan of machinery.
