Clean air in the welding shop
An existing hall has been rebuilt into a new welding shop because of the strong growth of KettenWulf. Upon completion the hall should be finished with a well-designed extraction system.
SparkShield is a spark arrester that provides near to 100% protection against sparks and cigarette butts.
The cyclone spark arrester, SparkShield, is a fire safety product, developed to reduce the risk of fire and to increase the filter’s lifespan. SparkShield prevents sparks, spatters and cigarette butts from entering the ductwork in welding fume extraction systems and reaching the combustible filter cartridge.
In addition, SparkShield is also very suitable as pre separator for high-dust applications.

Centrifugal acceleration ensures that sparks are being removed from the continuous airflow. A dustbin collects all remaining sparks at a safe distance from the main filter and away from the main ductwork. The dustbin can easily be separated from the system and emptied, even during hours of operation.
It is easy to install the SparkShield in existing extraction systems, as SparkShield contains two duct clamps. The duct clamps not only make the mounting part easy, also dismantling can be done easily and in sections.
Unfortunately, lack of maintenance is one of the most common causes of fire. A spark arrester, just like any other equipment, requires maintenance. Unlike competitive products, SparkShield is designed with maintenance in mind. Inspection hatches can be placed around it. They make it possible to look inside the ductwork and check whether cleaning is necessary. The devisable body is designed for easy maintenance.
*Includes a disposable dustbin of 13 litres and 27 litres (3.4 and 7.1 US gallons)

The oil needed for the stamping process creates an additional fire hazard in the filtration system. We had to look for a solution which would minimise the fire hazard.
The filter cartridges at Broki Metallwaren have caught fire three times in the last 40 years. Broki needed a solution to deal with that specific risk of fire.
The Audi A5 is prefabricated as a special design Cabrio RS5 at ThyssenKrupp in Heilbronn. The machining step involves both plasma cutting and plasma welding. The fumes produced by this process, cannot be extracted from above.
The service workshop needed a high-quality extraction system to remove welding fumes, grinding dust and oil mist, preventing accumulation in the workshop.
