JBC Tools Fume Extraction Product Guide
Most efficient solution. It only operates when soldering and features a unique system integrated into the stand.
Aspiration in use
Fume Extractor starts up when the tool is lifted from the stand. This function saves power and extends filter life.
Aspiration in the stand
JBC Fume Extractor has an integrated vacuum system that detects when the tool is returned to the stand and automatically absorbs excess of fumes.
3 working modes
Station
The valve in the working area opens when the tool is lifted from the stand.
Once the tool is returned to the stand and goes to Sleep Mode, the valve in the work area closes and the stand valve opens. After a period of inactivity on both ports, the unit stops.
Pedal
You can activate the vacuum system with the pedal without a connection to a JBC Station.
Continuous mode
When activated, the four aspiration intakes are opened and Fume Extractor suction is operating.
Intelligent control when connected to JBC Stations
2 separate aspiration inlets
can be used simultaneously in two workbenches.
4 levels of aspiration
depending on requirements: low, medium, high & customized.
Auto-control of the airflow
depending on the number of aspiration tubes in use and filter saturation.
workbench 1
Flexible arm aspiration tube Stand aspiration tube (up to 4 stands)
workbench 2
Flexible arm aspiration tube Stand aspiration tube (up to 4 stands)
Process Screen
Set up and control the equipment through an intuitive menu.
Connections
· RJ12 Premium Station Connections
· USB-B Compact Station Connection
Robust unit fitted with wheels and brakes to move around easily.
Filter saturation indicator
Green: Filter OK
Yellow: ≤ 20% Carbon lifetime or about to saturate
Red: End of Carbon lifetime or filter saturated.
For a basic working system
Connect up to four stations through RJ12 connector.
Compact Stations can be connected using RJ12-USB-A adapter included.
Stand aspiration duct
The system detects when the tool is returned to the stand and the vent absorbs the fumes automatically.

Why use JBC Fume Extractor ?
Avoid exposure to solder fume
Health risks come with extended exposure to solder fumes, so it is important to use the correct safety equipment to remove these hazardous substances.
Depending on the particle size, the fume can affect different parts of the respiratory system.
This is one of the main causes for occupational asthma.
It may cause eye and throat irritation.
The flux may cause dermatological problems.
Clean air is circulated back into the workplace
Big particulates are held by the pre-filter M5
Medium-sized particulates are held by the H13 Filter
Harmful gases are held by the active carbon filter
| Solid particles represent almost 90% of total fumes. They contain sublimation of rosin and other substances of thermal decomposition, both predominant of diterpens acid mixture. | The remaining percentage corresponds to other gases, composed of low-weight organic molecular compounds including acetone, methyl alcohol, aliphatic aldehydes and other hydrocarbons. |
High-efficiency filters to remove even the smallest particles
The combination of the three-layered filter system reaches a certified filtering efficiency of soldering fumes up to 99.95% in accordance with norm EN 1822-4.
Pre-filter M5
It retains large solid particles in order to protect the H13 filter and extend its lifetime.
Average efficiency for particles of 0.4 μm: 40-60% (in accordance with EN 779).
HEPA filter H13
The HEPA filter (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filters out the remaining solid particles. Efficiency for MPPS * ≥ 99.95% (in accordance with EN 1822).
* MPPS (Most Penetrating Particle Size) corresponds to the particle size at which the filter has a lower efficiency. The MPPS depends on the filter and the air flow, although usually it lies between 0.1-0.3 μm.
Active Carbon filter The active carbon filter absorbs those gas molecules which, due to their size, the HEPA filter is not able to filtrate.
Active carbon is a good filter aid because of its highly porous structure. In order to improve efficiency, different factors are taken into account. Generally, the lower the air flow rate, the more times the fumes have to diffuse into a pore and be absorbed.
