The soldering smoke evacuator is designed to absorb workplace fumes that are harmful to health (VBG 15 Accident Prevention Regulation). It actively protects against headaches, eye irritation (conjunctivitis) and fatigue symptoms that may arise from inhalation of solder fumes. The powerful axial fan extracts solder fumes, including chemical pollutants, by means of an active carbon filter. The housing is made of anodized aluminium, the fan requires 12 V and is supplied complete with power supply.
The absorber does not have a stand in the set visible in the picture.
