2.2 Operation
The MFD works in accordance with the recirculation principle.
The welding fume is extracted by the extraction fan and enters
the spark arrester via the extraction fan housing in the heart of
the filter. In the spark arrester the larger particles and any
sparks are separated.
Subsequently the air is cleaned by the main filter. Via the outlet
grid in the filter cover the cleaned air is returned in the
workshop. The filter pollution indicator on the control panel
indicates when filter replacement in necessary.
