General Purpose Anchorage, Kentucky Industrial Extraction Arm

"General Purpose" Anchorage, Kentucky Industrial Extraction Arm

We label these arms a standard issue because they can be universally applied to most fume and dust extraction applications. The general-purpose arm is suitable for capturing smoke, dust, or any non-corrosive product. They are constructed of smooth powder-coated steel or aluminum tubing, a capture hood with adjustment grips, flex hose joint covers, and external adjustment brackets for the hood and swivel joints. The assemblies come standard with a wall mounting bracket but also have ceiling and floor support brackets available. An internal damper is included for airflow adjustment or shutoff. The arm mounting brackets allow for 180⁰ and 360⁰ rotation. Arm diameter options range from three to ten inches, and arm lengths vary from three to thirty-two feet. The maximum airstream temperature for these arms is about 180 degrees Fahrenheit.

Features and options:

  • Arm diameters include 3", 4", 5", 6", and 8", and arm lengths include 3', 5', 7', 8', 10', and 14'.
  • Black hose rated for 195 degrees Fahrenheit (intermittent 260 degrees Fahrenheit)
  • Grab handle around the hood that is aluminum powder-coated black.
  • A shutoff damper is built into the lower tube.
  • The wall bracket is powder-coated black.
  • An optional fume exhaust fan in aluminum, carbon steel, or PVC.
  • Includes duct connection collar

Anchorage 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.

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

New and Retrofitted Extraction Arm Systems in Anchorage

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.

Anchorage KY Fume Extraction Arms

Industrial exhaust systems for capturing smoke, fume, dust, high-temperature air, and corrosive gases.

Anchorage ATEX Rated Fume Extraction Arms

Explosion-rated extraction arms are available for the handling of explosive gases and dust. (The combustible materials need to be identified upfront to determine the arm selection and hose material, if there is particulate, is corrosive.) These extraction arms meet the requirements of the ATEX Directive 2014/34/E.U. Category 2 for gases and dust for Zones 1 and 21 (areas where an explosive atmosphere is likely to occur during regular operation). ATEX-rated fume arm tube diameters vary from four to eight inches, and arm lengths are optional from five feet up to twenty-three feet.

  • Models having black chemical resistance P.E. hose
  • Arm diameters include 4", 5", 6", and 8", and arm lengths include 5', 7', 10', 13', 16', and 23'.
  • Optional fume exhaust fans in aluminum, carbon steel, or PVC.
  • Flexible PE hose, fully grounded.
  • Model having a semi-transparent white P.U. hose for dust-related pollutants.
  • They are manufactured following ATEX directive 2014/34/E.U. Category 2 for gases and dust.

Economical Industrial Extraction Arms in Anchorage KY


These extraction arms serve a similar function as the general-purpose extraction arm but are constructed with a flexible hose instead of metal tubing. This arm has cost savings, but some optional features are unavailable. These arms were designed for light-duty, intermittent applications and have limitations on some airstream constituents. Importantly, each application is reviewed upfront by SysTech will guide you through the selection process safely. Hose diameter alternatives range from four to eight inches, and arm lengths range from five to thirty-six feet. The standard hose material is blue PVC or white PVC with an option for PE-coated polyamide fabric for mild corrosive applications. Custom sizes can be designed using various parts for different arm models combined to make a new arm design.

Features and options:

  • Lowest possible pressure drop, which helps save energy and lowers sound levels
  • Hood designed for maximum capture efficiency and extraction
  • Unique ease of maneuverability
  • Lightweight construction balanced by two gas springs.
  • Optional fume exhaust fans in aluminum, carbon steel, or PVC.
  • External arm support
  • Arm diameters include 4", 5", 6", and 8", and arm lengths include 5', 7', 10', 13', 16', 23', 30', and 36'.
  • High positional stability
