Weller ZeroSmog Guard Fume Extraction Kits

The Guard and Guard2 Fume Extraction units can communicate with the WT & WX range of soldering stations, insomuch that while the soldering iron is being used, the extractor is on, when it's not being used it can be set to automatically switch off. 

So, no more extractors running overnight because they were forgotten.

Switching to lead-free soldering is the more environmentally friendly choice moving forward, however, lead-free soldering also presents challenges as it generates more breathable airborne particles. This increase is due to higher working temperatures and the additional flux required during the process.

Using the correct safety equipment is essential to remove these hazardous substances effectively. Fine particles are more dangerous than larger ones, as they can reach the alveoli in the lungs and potentially block airways. A fume extraction unit is crucial in this process, capturing particles and gases and recirculating cleaned air back into the workspace. This approach not only protects workers’ health but also conserves energy and reduces HVAC costs.
