Down Draft Tables & Filters

What are down draft tables?

Downdraft tables or downdraft benches are two terms used interchangeably for the same thing. Regardless of the name, they are workbenches that are created with built-in ventilation to attract and contain smoke, fumes and dust, preventing them from reaching specific materials that are being worked on. In most cases, downdraft tables are connected either to a ventilation or a dust collection system to deliver and improve the capture of material using the holes. In short, down draft tables are a non-complex and efficient source-capture fume extraction option for different uses on applications like light grinding, epoxy fume management, solder fumes, solvent vapour management, sanding, and other industrial processes. 

What are the benefits of using downdraft tables?

All of our downdraft tables all provide users with the necessary flexibility, longevity, and modularity vital for the successful capturing and filtration of the dangerous particles, fumes, and dust produced during industrial operations. They’re extremely mobile and appropriate for regular use and continuous operation. Through the use of high-quality, powerful air filters like HEPA, ASHRAE, and ULPA, our down draft tables can efficiently extract dangerous airborne contaminant particles from the respiratory area of the operator. 

You can enjoy peace of mind knowing that you’re working with a safe downdraft table thanks to the stable material support. Some of our products also offer the comfort of sidewalls that can be folded in case you’re working with larger workpieces. Our downdraft tables come with soundproofed sidewalls, meaning that you’ll also enjoy lower noise levels while working. Cleaning and maintaining the down draft tables are no challenge thanks to the integrated slag trays. Put simply, we offer affordable prices yet an outstanding quality that every client can rely on. 

Choosing Your Downdraft Benches 

No matter what type of air quality issue you’re dealing with, our downdraft benches are the perfect solution. We provide a self-contained air filtration system that offers filtration on every table depending on the user’s application and needs. The downdraft benches and the available filtration are able to identify any hazard created from an operator’s processes like metal dust, organic dust, composite dust, wood dust, pharmaceutical dust, cutting smoke, adhesive odours, welding fumes, and others. All of the mentioned above can successfully and easily be caught and captivated. 

As a result, you’ll be able to benefit from a perfectly clean and harmless operator breathing zone. The majority of our downdraft benches have a unique modular design that has been specifically created to match your application in size, filtration, and airflow. It’s important to note that some of our downdraft tables don’t include an extraction fan or filter and these components can be bought separately from our website. 

Choosing the right air filtration is vital. To help, we’ve made sure that our downdraft benches’ filter systems are chosen based on the identified hazardous materials that are being eliminated during your application. Our downdraft benches work with a number of air filtration options such as pleated panel filters, air filter bags, HEPA, self-cleaning cartridge filters, water filtration, activated carbon, and others. You can safely rely on this tested and result-proven solution anytime that you need to.

If you’re unsure about how to make the right choice from our wide array of options, we’re always here to help you. Our trained professionals can offer support and guidance by answering any questions, explaining the differences between our downdraft benches, and suggesting why a specific product may be better for you and your needs.
