INTRODUCING
PACE FUME EXTRACTION SYSTEMS
As the full solution provider in the electronics
industry, PACE has set the standards for over
15 years by leading technology development
for fume extraction equipment specifi cally
designed to meet the requirements of the
electronics industry and by educating the
industry on the effects of exposure and how
to protect workers.
PACE offers Fume Extraction Systems that
feature the latest advancements in fi lter
condition monitoring and process control
as well as cost effective solutions that
incorporate many of our best features. A
variety of collection accessories are available
that offer highly effective source capture or
wide area extraction to meet virtually any
application.
Each system is composed of rugged steel
construction and includes a heavy-duty,
brushless motor for years of troublefree
service.
cartridges are easily changed, eliminating
the need for messy cleaning and costly
service visits.

THE BENEFITS OF PACE FUME EXTRACTION
1. Fumes are pulled away from the primary
2. As fl ux fumes are removed at their source,
3. Assemblies and the work area are kept clean
4. Filtered air is recirculated back into the work
5. Unfi ltered air is not exhausted to the outside
6. PACE Fume Extraction Systems offer the greatest

It’s a fact... hazardous fumes in the working environment result in increased absenteeism, employee turnover, worker’s
compensation claims and lost productivity. Medical research has confi rmed an increased incidence of occupational
asthma, chronic bronchitis, allergic reactions, contact dermatitis and other health related effects associated with exposure
to fl ux fumes. The substances in fl ux fumes are regulated by international health and safety agencies and many have
been designated as Occupational Sensitizers which means that exposure should be eliminated or reduced to as low a
level as possible. Where manual soldering is being performed or where solder-pots/fountains are utilized, hazardous
fumes are produced and workers need to be protected from them.
FACT: EXPOSURE TO SOLDER FUMES LEADS TO RESPIRATORY ILLNESS
When rosin-based or rosin-containing fl uxes are heated,
a substance called colophony is produced, which is one
of the major causes of occupational asthma. In order
to reduce exposure to colophony, rosin-based fl uxes
have been exchanged for no-clean or synthetic fl uxes
that contain no rosin or very low percentages. While
this reduces or eliminates exposure to colophony, new
chemical irritants may be introduced into the work place,
many of which pose a more substantial threat to workers.
Over 95% of the total fume produced from rosin-based
fl uxes are in the form of particulates. Chemical exposure
from fl ux fume varies widely and is dependent on the
chemical composition of the fl ux. Non-rosin or low-rosin
fl uxes use chemically aggressive substances such as
acids, solvents, or alcohols in place of rosin to improve
the cleaning action of the fl ux. This is also true for
Lead Free solders.

Exposure to these substances is also recognized as
hazardous and when fl ux is heated, the resultant
chemical by-products can be even more hazardous.
Additionally, the use of cleaners, solvents or adhesives,
which are common in electronic soldering applications,
expose workers to chemical hazards. The human body
has been designed with defense mechanisms such as
nasal passageways lined with mucus that will collect
larger particles through a process known as impaction
and ciliated breathing passageways to remove foreign
substances from the main airways of the lungs. Flux fumes
contain high levels of respirable particles (less than 3.5
microns in diameter similar in size to cigarette smoke),
that can bypass these natural defense mechanisms and
deposit themselves in the gas-exchange region of the
lungs, thereby posing the greatest exposure hazard.
FACT: MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEETS FOR
FLUXES RECOMMEND THE USE OF LOCAL
EXHAUST VENTILATION SYSTEMS
The Health effects caused by exposure to fl ux fumes
tend to be forms of respiratory illness and contact
dermatitis. However, since the components of fl ux
fume are often designated as occupational sensitizers,
chronic or prolonged exposure increases the severity of
health effects. PACE Fume Extraction is a key element in
protecting workers from being exposed to fl ux fume!
