FES-200 W3
NOTICE
• Make sure that the extraction hose is not damaged by being driven over, crushed, torn or similar.
• The fume extraction system must only be used for extracting and separating welding fume.
• Freely accessible intake joints and compressed air connections must be protected using a seal plug.
• Do not allow liquids, aggressive gases, inflammable media or glowing particles (smouldering nests or similar) to be
drawn in.
• Do not use or store the fume extraction system outdoors under humid conditions.
• It is not allowed to use the fume extraction system when welding oil-contaminated metals. Risk of fire!
• The 115 V/60 Hz or 230 V/50 Hz mains plug must be protected by a 16 A fuse.
• If it is necessary to replace the mains or device connecting cable, only versions indicated by the manufacturer must be
used.
• Make sure that the extraction hose is not damaged by being driven over, crushed, torn or similar.
• When using the welding fume filter, the volume flow that is led back to the work area must not exceed 50% of the supply
air of the installation area. In case of free room ventilation, the supply air flow corresponds to one room volume per
hour. This corresponds to an air change number of 1/h.
Supply air flow [m³/h] = room volume [m³]
Example: When using an ABICOR BINZEL welding fume filter with a rated volume flow of 200 m³/h, the same
quantity of fresh air must be supplied. With natural ventilation, this is the case if the work area volume is at least
2000 m³ (e. g.: surface of 58 m² multiplied by room height of 3.5 m).
2.4 Safety instructions for the mains connection
NOTICE
• Make sure that the power supply cable is not damaged by being driven over, crushed, torn or similar.
• The mains connecting cable must be checked for damage and wear at regular intervals.
• The fume extraction system may only be operated with an undamaged mains connecting cable.
• Only authorized personnel is allowed to replace the mains connecting cable and the mains plug
(in Germany see TRBS 1203).
• When replacing the mains plug of the mains connecting cable, the splash guard and the mechanical strength must still
be guaranteed.
• Use a rubberised cable H07RN-F3G1.5 when replacing the mains connecting cable.
2.5 Personal protective equipment (PPE)
To avoid danger to the user, these instructions recommend the use of personal protective equipment (PPE).
• This consists of protective clothing, safety goggles, a class P3 respiratory mask, protective gloves and safety shoes.
2.6 Classification of the warnings
The warnings used in the operating instructions are divided into four different levels and shown prior to potentially dangerous
work steps. Arranged in descending order of importance, they have the following meanings:
DANGER
Describes an imminent threatening danger. If not avoided, this will result in fatal or extremely critical injuries.
WARNING
Describes a potentially dangerous situation. If not avoided, this may result in serious injuries.
