Where the mobile and wall-mounted units in the Kemper range are built around a single flexible arm, VacuFil 500 works differently: it's a central high-vacuum plant that connects via a pipeline system to torch-integrated extraction, extraction arms, funnel nozzles or slotted nozzles, giving a workshop one extraction backbone that serves several welders at once rather than one unit per bay.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAt the heart of it is a 10 m² KemTex® ePTFE membrane filter cartridge, electronically monitored for saturation and cleaned automatically during operation using compressed air, so the unit keeps running through continuous, high-volume use without manual intervention. A side-channel compressor generates the vacuum, giving it the pressure needed to pull fume through a full pipeline network rather than just a short arm, and an integrated 40-litre dust collection container means less frequent emptying. Configuration is flexible on the inlet side too — VacuFil 500 can be set up with a single Ø100mm inlet or four Ø32mm inlets, so it scales to match how many extraction points actually need to run at once, with automatic start\/stop available so the system only draws power when a connected torch is active.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis is the option to reach for when the fume extraction task isn't \"one welder, one arm\" but \"several welding stations that all need to be captured centrally\" — training workshops, multi-bay fabrication shops, or anywhere a pipeline-fed system makes more sense than several standalone mobile units cluttering the floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\r\n\u003ctable\u003e\r\n\u003cthead\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\r\n\u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\r\n\u003ctbody\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eSystem type\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh-vacuum, central\/multi-workstation extraction\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eWorkstations served\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to 4\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eFilter\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e10 m² KemTex® ePTFE membrane filter cartridge\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eFilter cleaning\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eAutomatic, compressed-air driven, electronically monitored by saturation level\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eDust collection\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eIntegrated 40-litre collection container\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eVacuum source\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eSide-channel compressor\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eInlet configuration\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e1 x Ø100mm inlet, or 4 x Ø32mm inlets\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eConnection options\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eDirect torch-integrated extraction, extraction arms, funnel nozzles, slotted nozzles; can connect to a central pipeline system\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eAutomation\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eAutomatic start\/stop; optional start\/stop clamps for individual extraction points\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eBest suited to\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eMulti-workstation shops, training workshops, torch-integrated and pipeline-fed extraction setups\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\r\n\u003c\/table\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is VacuFil 500 different from the mobile\/wall-mounted Kemper units (SmartFil, ProfiMaster, MaxiFil)?\u003c\/strong\u003e Those units each serve one (or two, with a twin-arm option) welding position via a flexible or rigid arm on the unit itself.
