SECOMAK Air Products has developed an exhaust gas extraction fan system for vehicle workshops where engines have to he left running for servicing and tuning.
The Vextract fans consist of a lightweight aluminium fan chamber mounted on a tubular steel frame with an electrical control box. The frame is designed so the extractor can be carried around a workshop and used as a free standing unit. When used in this way the outlet hose is simply passed through a window, or outside door to allow the fumes to disperse. Alternatively the unit can be wall mounted and used with a fixed rigid outlet duct.
For light vehicles, Vextract extractors are supplied with two 5mm hoses fitted with push-on connectors to suit exhaust pipes from 40-80mm diameter and a 5mm outlet hose. For heavy commercials Vextract units have a single port inlet manifold carrying a 5rom extraction hose with a connector for exhaust pipes from 60-100mm diameter.
Both models have motors rated at 370W and operate on 230/250V AC, 50Hz power supplies.
