Donaldson Torit Introduces Improved Point-of-Use Extraction Arm for Weld Fume

Donaldson Company, Inc., a leading provider of industrial fume control equipment, has announced the immediate availability of an improved fume extraction arm that has external adjustment controls and is virtually maintenance-free, the company said.

The new Ex-Arm is standard on all Donaldson Torit brand fume collectors (Easy-Trunk, Porta-Trunk, T-2000) and can be ordered to fit others.

"With its external controls, Ex-Arm is easier to position at the fume source when extracting dirty air from the workplace and the worker's breathing zone," said a spokesperson. "It features a 360¡ free rotation with smooth, low-friction maneuverability that engages positively when positioned.

"There are several hood options on this arm, including a standard round hood with impactor plate, and a triangle shape that is proving very useful for fume collection in tight corners.

"The Ex-Arm can be mounted on a bench or overhead. It is finished with a scratch-resistant black baked enamel coating, and carries a one-year warranty.

"The packaging for shipping is smaller on the Ex-Arm, compared to previous arms. The unit is folded and well-packed into a sturdy cardboard container, instead of a wooden crate, which means less weight and less freight cost for the customer.

"Pricing is comparable to previous Donaldson Torit arms, and competitive with others on the market, even while offering so many more benefits."
