1.2 General description
The T-Flex/CW is a wall-mounted telescopic extraction arm with
a rotatable hood. Incorporated into the hood is a throttle valve
that can be fully opened, partially opened or completely closed
to control airflow at hood opening. The arm features a focus
extraction spoiler, which directs the air into the hood.
The extraction arm is based on a telescopic tube, allowing it to
be extended to give a 2,5 m (8.2 ft) working radius and
compressed to 1,5 m (5 ft). The arm is fitted with a spring-
balance which enables it to be moved from a vertical to a
horizontal position in one easy movement.
If mounted on a column, the arm can be turned through 300°
due to the rotating hinge. The T-Flex/CW is often used in
welding cabins.
