AER Powered DownDraft Bench (APB) Series

Downdraft Tables, Self Cleaning Cartridge Filters

A very cost effective solution in capturing dust, smoke, fume and gas/vapor contaminants from welding, grinding, sanding, buffing, light plasma, and de-burring operations. The AER Powered Bench (APB Series) will comply with local codes such as OSHA by drawing the contaminants away from the operator's breathing zone at over 250-feet-per-minute tabletop velocity, the highest in the industry. The APB will meet your demands for clean air quality in your shop using its built-in cost-effective filter self-cleaning system. Due to its large amount of filter area, the benefits are longer filter life and less maintenance.
