Lincoln’s self contained X-Tractor® units are specifically designed for the removal and filtration of welding fume. They feature a high vacuum, low volume system with an automatic self-cleaning filter system. They are suitable for heavy duty welding applications and continuous use, powered by three phase AC motors.
These units are designed to supply suction for up to 8 fume guns or 5 suction heads. Air enters the system through a connection on the rear side of the machine. It then passes through the filter and the fume particles are captured in the filter media. The air then passes through the blower and exits through an internal silencer. A timer signals a pulse of compressed air that loosens the particulate from the outside surface of the filter so that it falls to the bottom of the particulate bin canister.

The operation of welding fume control equipment is affected by various factors including proper use and positioning of the equipment, maintenance of the equipment and the specific welding procedure and application involved. Worker exposure level should be checked upon installation and periodically thereafter to be certain it is within applicable OSHA PEL and ACGIH TLV limits.
