Effects from inhaling VOC’s depend on how much, how long and how often a person is exposed. Prolonged exposure to small amounts of VOCs for long periods of time may increase health problems. People who have asthma are at greater risk. Some of the most comon chemical compounds that produce VOC include paint overspray, coatings, solvents, adhesives, acetone and formaldehyde.
Downdraft Booths, Dust Booths or Backdraft Tables are workstations with built-in ventilation to capture and filter dust, smoke, and fumes and then return clean air to a shop floor which can eliminate costly exhaust and air makeup systems.
Wall-mounted Fume Extractors allow fabrication shops to cost effectively mount air cleaners on a wall, column or ceiling mount configuration, saving valuable floor space for employees and production equipment in confined floor space environments.
Increased risk of:
Applications like painting, cleaning and washing parts with solvent based chemical products can produce a substantial amount of VOC fumes. Adequate ventilation is only part of the solution, these fumes need to be captured before they have a chance to reach breathing zone of the worker. This type of pollution requires a carbon based filtration system.
Your fume capture equipment, filtration type, and supplementary personal protection equipment will depend on the type and concentration of VOC’s you are working with.
Evaluate your work situation critically. Ask yourself:
