Welding Fume Extractors

Mobile welding fume extraction that pulls fume straight off the arc — an articulated capture arm or torch-mounted inlet, with M-class filtration to protect operators station by station.

Capture fume at the source, not after it spreads

Mobile, wheels-to-the-workArticulated capture armM-class filtration

A welding fume extractor captures smoke and particulate right where it's generated — at the arc or the torch — instead of relying on general workshop ventilation, which HSE no longer treats as sufficient control even for mild-steel welding. The Depureco range covers both mobile and torch-mounted capture: the AIR WELD wheels to the work with a 3-metre articulated arm you position over the arc, while the compact XM Torch mounts directly on a MIG/MAG torch to draw fume at source as you weld. Both run Class M filtration rated for welding fume.

Search by model below, or tell us your welding process and number of stations and we'll size the right extractor — or a central system — for your shop.

AIR WELD

The AIR WELD is a wheeled welding fume extractor with a 3-metre articulated arm and an M-class cellulose cartridge filter, driven by a 1.3 kW electric fan. A built-in counter tells you exactly when the cartridge needs changing.

Welding Fume Extraction Questions & Expert Answers

Ask a Question
01 Do I need to extract welding fume, even for mild steel?

Yes. Since 2019, HSE treats all welding fume — including from mild steel — as a carcinogen, and expects effective engineering controls wherever welding takes place. General workshop ventilation is no longer accepted as adequate on its own; controlling exposure at source is a COSHH duty.

02 Mobile extractor or a fixed/central system — which do I need?

A mobile unit like the AIR WELD, with its 3-metre articulated arm, or a torch-mounted extractor like the XM Torch, suits one or two welding stations, or work that moves around the shop. Where several stations run at once, a single centralised vacuum system ducted to every bay gives consistent capture with one filter to maintain — see our centralised vacuum systems.
