dangerous.
• Use in open, well ventilated areas
or vent exhaust outside.
The operation of welding fume control equipment
is affected by various factors including proper use
and positioning of the equipment, maintenance of
the equipment and the specific welding procedure
and application involved. Worker exposure level
should be checked upon installation and periodi-
cally thereafter to be certain it is within applicable
federal, state and/or local regulations and guide-
lines (i.e. OSHA PEL and ACGIH TLV limits in the
U.S.).

tering fumes and gases which are
released during the following (weld-
ing) processes:
• oxy-fuel cutting
• aluminum laser cutting
• oil-treated metal
• arc-air gouging
• oil mist
• paint mist
• heavy oil mist in welding fume
• hot gases (more than 40°C/100°F continuously)
• aggressive gases (e.g. from acids)
• plasma cutting
• grinding aluminum and magnesium
• flame spraying
• extraction of cement, saw dust, wood dust etc.

INTENDED USE

The product has been designed exclusively for extract-
ing and filtering fume which is released during common
weld processes. Using the product for other purposes
is considered contrary to its intended use. The manu-
facturer accepts no liability for any damage resulting
from such use.
Only use the product in mechanically sound condition
in accordance with its intended use and the instruc-
tions set forth in the user manual.
The air which contains welding fume is captured,
extracted, and filtered, before being recirculated back
into the work environment. First, the welding fume is
extracted through an adjustable fume extraction arm
by the internal extraction fan.
Second, as the welding fume enters the Base Unit, it
passes through the prefilter in the center of the
LongLife filter cartridge. The prefilter separates larger
particles, debris and most sparks prior to the welding
fume entering the LongLife filter. Third, the air passes
from the inside through the LongLife filter cartridge.
Fourth, after passing through the LongLife filter, the fil-
tered air exits the Mobiflex 200-M(/HE) Base Unit via
the outlet grid at top of the filter housing.
