    Alto Telescopic Fume Extraction Arm

    Telescopic extraction arms are designed to fit into confined spaces. They are used for those applications when the operator wants to "compress" the arm out of the way and pull it back to a working position. The unit will mount on the ceiling, wall, or floor stanchion. There are optional designs from which to choose. There is an arm with a ridged flex hose in six or eight-inch diameter having an operating range of seven feet to almost ten feet or a thin-walled tube design that is available in five-inch diameter and can telescope three feet out to seven feet. Both telescopic arm options would include a manual damper.

    • Arm diameters are 6" and 8", and the operating range (compression) is 4' to 7'.
    • Powder coated steel wall bracket is standard
    • Black hose rated up to 195 degrees Fahrenheit (intermittent 260 degrees Fahrenheit)
    • The hood is powder-coated aluminum and includes a grab handle and shutoff damper built within
    • Swivel base
    • Internal is telescopic
    • Optional fume exhaust fans in aluminum, carbon steel, or PVC.

    Alto, Georgia Fume Extraction Arm Optional Accessories

    Fume extraction arms have optional accessories that include:

    Custom hoods – To maximize fume capture, standard circular or scoop-shaped hoods can be changed to a slotted design, rectangular, flat, or custom fabricated.

    Tube materials – For those arms using tubing, construction materials include painted steel, aluminum, stainless steel, P.P., or PVC. Extraction arms that use flex hoses can use clear, fire retardant, high temperature, or anti-static hoses.

    Wall Mount - A wall bracket designed to mount the arm to any wall or beam within the facility.

    Nozzles - To get even closer to source capture, suction nozzles and flexible suction nozzles are available.

    Floor Stanchion - When the ceiling is too high, or there are no walls, a floor stanchion can be used to mount the arm.

    Ceiling Mount - For applications where arms are mounted/supported by the ceiling. The ceiling bracket varies in height depending on the height of the hard deck or Unistrut.

    Hood lights – Lights can be attached to the arm hood to provide better vision at the work point. Often used in welding applications.

    The demand for weld smoke extraction arms is always high and mandates an arm category. Depending on the application, different designs use either smooth wall or flex hose tubing. Both designs use external positioning joints and a hood with an internal adjustable damper. The units are typically wall-mounted but have ceiling and floor support bracket options. Arm diameter options range from six to eight inches, and arm lengths vary from three feet up to thirty-six feet. Personal weld fume packages include a single extraction arm, exhaust fan, and air filter.

    • Optional fume exhaust fans in aluminum, carbon steel, or PVC.
    • Standard units include a wall bracket. Ceiling mount options are available.
    • Low-pressure drop
    • Shut off dampers built internally.
    • Arm diameters include 3", 4", 5", 6", and 8", and arm lengths include 3', 5', 7', 8', 10', 14', 16', 23', 30', and 36'.

    New and Retrofitted Extraction Arm Systems in Alto

    When you install a new fume extraction arm or arms, it improves air cleaning system performance, resulting in a cleaner work environment. Expectations can be met if all-important selection factors are considered and limitations for capture are pointed out.

    If you are repairing, replacing, or adding a new arm or arms, to an existing system, the critical components of the fume exhaust system should be reviewed, including the duct system, the exhaust fan (s), and the air cleaning device. Systems are only as efficient as their individual parts, and SysTech will review your components with you to evaluate if your system is operating at peak performance.

    Alto, Georgia Stainless Steel Extraction Arms

    Alto, Georgia Stainless Steel Extraction Arms

    Aggressive airstream chemistry may require the arms to be constructed of 304 stainless steel. The tubing and hood are stainless, with external adjustment joints at the hood and swivel joints. Arm assemblies have a wall mounting bracket and an internal damper for airflow adjustment and shutoff. The standard flex hose at the joints is an FDA Pur Antistatic hose. Stainless steel arm tube diameters vary from three to eight inches, and arm lengths from three feet up to fourteen feet, all suitable for washdown applications. 316 stainless steel construction is an available option.

    • 304 SS grab handle on the hood for easy mobility and positioning.
    • Tubes, hood, internal shutoff damper, and duct connection collar are all constructed of 304SS
    • Arm diameters include 3", 4", 5", 6", and 8", and arm lengths include 3', 5', 7', 8', 10', and 14'.
    • Clear anti-static FDA hose rated for 200 degrees Fahrenheit.
    • External joints are anodized aluminum.
    • Available in hanging and benchtop models.
    • Optional fume exhaust fans in aluminum, carbon steel, or PVC.
