Welding Bay Smoke & Fume Applications
Guaranteed Solutions!

Industrial Maid specializes in welding smoke and fume collection. Our company engineers have done hundreds of jobs throughout the U.S. and Canada. We specifically designed the packaged air filtration line as a cost effective alternative to the use of large dust collectores and costly ducting to handle the smoke and fumes in welding fabrication areas. Our solutions are easy to install, simple to service and will offer years of cost effective control of smoke, fumes and dust. We do not have timer boards, diaphragms and other expensive bells and whistles that require replacement as the equipment ages.

In addition, our equipment has been tested and proven to handle oily welding applications with a lot longer filter life than a cartridge style media. Our units collect dirt and dust inside the filter, not on the outside - for easier and cleaner filter service work. No dump trays, dust drawers, barrels, drums or vacuums to fuss with.

Engineers trained in Solidworks means we can provide layout drawings, detailed specifications and all areas of support for your technical needs. Call us at 1-877-624-3247 or email sales@industrial-maid.com with any questions you might have. Let our staff help you make the most cost effective choice available on the market today!

Model 4500 X 2

Model 4500 X 2

Units placed in a manufacturer doing mining equipment fabrication and repair work. The units have two stage filtration, 4" baffles and Merv 15 bags filters. The baffles stop the grinding sparks from reaching the dust and media. This type of application filters the smoke and dust in the air, keeps the shop clean and saves the client several thousand dollars per month in energy costs because they no longer exhaust heated air outside.

Model 7500 X 6

The Model 7500 X 6 is specially designed units to fit up above the traveling gantry crane. These units have a two stage filtration system – a special polyester pad and Merv 15 bag filters. The units are controlled by a variable frequency package, saving energy and extending the bag service life to six month intervals.

General Ambient Filtration

Step 1
Determine the AER – Air Exchange Rate from Table 1 that best fits your application needs.

Step 2
Determine the total cubic feet of your plant work area
Total cubic feet = L x W x H (maximum height 20’)

Where:
L = length of your workspace (feet)
W = width of your workspace (feet)
H = height of your ceiling in the workspace (feet)

Note - we use dimensions only to 20 feet as smoke, dust and fumes will stratify well below this height. Example: 24 ft ceiling height—20 ft.

Step 3
Divide the total cubic feet by the AER determined in Step 1.

Step 4
Divide this total by the CFM of the unit you prefer to use.
T-3000 is 3000 CFM
T-3500 is 3500 CFM
T-4500 is 4500 CFM
T-6000 is 6000 CFM
T-7500 is 7500 CFM

Example:
Workspace is 100’ long X 60’ wide X 18’ tall
Total cubic feet is: 100 X 60 X 18 = 108,000 cubic feet

Welding application
Medium use 5 as the AER (air exchange rate)
(from Table 1) 108,000/ 5 = 21,600

Assume using a T-3500 (3500 CFM unit)
21,600/3500 = 6.17 or 6 units to handle the application.

Step 5
Determine best location or placement for units.

Our qualified staff is always available to help you determine CFM requirement, placement and then final selection of the units that will provide you the best "cost of ownership" in regards to electrical consumption and filter service costs. Contact Sales @ (877) 624-3247
