CrossFlow Table

Clean Air Matrix

RoboVent engineers are experts in every category of air filtration and ventilation. The four categories below represent the major options for treating your contaminated air. RoboVent has designed solutions for each of these categories and has manufactured air filtration systems of unrivaled quality.

For more information about these categories, see Indoor Air Quality 101.

Ambient_Filtration

Large blowers and air filtration equipment draw contaminated air from the plant (typically at the ceiling level), filter it and return it to the plant. This is a proven solution in plants welding large parts with overhead cranes. It reduces the haze in the air, resulting in a cleaner working environment, with no negative pressure or heat loss.

SourceCapture_Filtration

Air in the immediate area of the welding activity is captured in a hood system, then filtered and returned to the plant. This is the best solution whenever possible. It allows for a more flexible system and removes the smoke directly from the operator's breathing zone. There are many types of source capture, including overhead hoods, crossflow hoods, fume arms and fume guns, some of which work better than others.

Ambient_Exhaust

Large exhaust fans draw contaminated air from the plant and exhaust it directly into the environment, typically through the roof or walls. This is a traditional method and often results in negative air pressure. Also, it is very difficult to climate-control your plant and the system may not work well in the winter.

SourceCapture_Exhaust
Air in the immediate area of the welding activity is captured in a hood, sent through ductwork, and exhausted directly into the environment. This is a lower capital cost alternative to filtration, but tends to result in high operating costs and large, unsightly ducting systems that work less efficiently with modifications. It also results in negative pressure problems.

Built-In Protection

The RoboVent CrossFlow Table is a compact, self-contained welding bench and source capture system that recycles contaminated air using a high-efficiency, self-cleaning filter system. Available in compact 4’ or more spacious 5’ models, the CrossFlow Table is a complete welding station that is ideal for educational facilities or repair shops looking for an all-in-one bench-and-filtration unit.

Easy Installation: Simply drop it in place and connect power and a compressed-air hose, and you are operational.

Cost Effective: The unique all-in-one CrossFlow design ensures clean air, a clean facility and the cost-effective removal of contaminants.

More Available Workspace Features: The new 5’ CrossFlow Table has more space under the work surface for welding equipment and includes added features such as LED lighting and a built-in electrical plug for power tools.

How It Works

The design of the CrossFlow Table is based on RoboVent’s decades of experience controlling weld fumes. The table draws air up through the table and away from the welder’s breathing zone. The airflow captures the weld fumes and pulls them into a collector above the welder’s head.

Once captured in the collector, weld fumes are filtered using RoboVent’s cutting edge technology, including their advanced, proprietary filter designs. Once the CrossFlow Table has filtered the air, the unit returns the clean air to the facility. Not only has the welder been protected from potentially toxic fumes, but the entire facility benefits, as well.
