The WeldFil Compact is a heavy-duty central welding fume extraction system designed for large-scale industrial operations. With 120 m² of total filter surface, automatic cleaning, and up to 12,000 m³/h airflow, it’s ideal for nonstop source capture across robotic welding, grinding, and cutting environments.
The WeldFil Compact is a centralized extraction solution built for continuous-duty welding and thermal cutting environments with extreme smoke and dust production. Powered by a 10 hp belt-driven radial fan, it supports airflows up to 12,000 m³/h and vacuum pressures of 2,050–2,500 Pa.
This high-performance system utilizes 12 cleanable KemTex® ePTFE membrane filter cartridges, totaling 120 m² of surface area, and is equipped with automatic differential pressure-controlled cleaning via rotating nozzles. The design includes a sealed 192-liter dust container with pneumatic lifting device for safe, contamination-free waste disposal. With a compact footprint, forklift access, and integrated touchscreen controls, the WeldFil Compact arrives fully assembled and ready to operate.
