TKFD Series

The TKFD is an interchangeable filtering device for extraction volumes up to 335 m³/h. Fuchs describes it as the middleweight with the strength of champions, combining an integrated pre-separator, flexible filter-stage options, automatic filter monitoring by negative and differential pressure, and suitability for confined spaces such as under-table placement or machine integration.

Applications

  • Small inscription lasers with minimal material loss.
  • Small welding applications.
  • Soldering fumes in electronics production.
  • Solvent and adhesive vapours.

Key Features

  • Fuchs Umwelttechnik multi-stage filter combinations help maintain high filter capacity.
  • High flexibility: different blowers can be used depending on the specific application.
  • Automatic filter monitoring via negative and differential pressure.
  • Control-panel LED indicates filter saturation.
  • Welding fume separator class W3, IFA certified.

Selection Notes

  • Use TKFD where extraction requirements fall within the 30–335 m³/h range and an integrated pre-separator is desirable.
  • Consider TKFD for inscription lasers, small welding applications, small cutting lasers, soldering fumes, particulate matter, smoke, solvent vapours, and adhesive vapours.
  • Use automatic negative- and differential-pressure filter monitoring as a maintenance planning aid.
  • Plan the filter level configuration around the contaminant type and individual application requirements.

Integration Notes

  • Place the extraction point close to the emission source whenever possible.
  • Confirm electrical supply requirements before specifying the unit.
  • Plan service access so easy-change filter maintenance remains practical after installation.
  • Review contaminant type, duty cycle, and capture geometry before final selection.
