TKFVA

The TKFVA is a compact cleanable filter unit designed for welding and cutting laser fume extraction where cartridge replacement costs need to be minimized. Its cleanable filter media allows extended service intervals compared to easy-change designs, making it practical for continuous-duty laser and welding applications. The unit operates on standard 120 or 230 V single-phase power and produces 69 dBA at 1 m.

300–320 m³/h11,500–12,500 Pa120/230 V / 50–60 Hz1.1–1.2 kW69 dBA

Applications

  • Welding fume extraction at fixed and semi-fixed stations.
  • Cutting and inscription laser fume capture.
  • Process dusts from metals and similar industrial materials.
  • Compact installations where floor space is limited.

Key Features

  • Cleanable filter media extends service intervals versus easy-change cartridge units.
  • High negative pressure (up to 12,500 Pa) for effective capture at the emission source.
  • Single-phase 120/230 V electrical supply for broad compatibility.
  • Compact footprint (705 × 390 × 1215 mm) suited to space-constrained installations.
  • Continuous-duty construction for high-cycle welding and laser operations.

Selection Notes

  • Select TKFVA for welding and cutting laser applications requiring up to 320 m³/h.
  • Specify when cleanable filter media and extended service intervals are required over easy-change cartridge types.
  • Confirm electrical supply (120 V or 230 V) before ordering.
  • For higher air volumes, consider MKFVA (up to 380 m³/h) or MKFV/INRV series.

Integration Notes

  • Position the extraction point as close to the emission source as possible.
  • Allow front-access clearance for filter cleaning without relocating the unit.
  • Confirm duct connection diameter matches the blower outlet before installation.
  • Review contaminant type and duty cycle; consult Pantron for application-specific guidance.
