K3967-2 - Lincoln X-Tractor 8A High Vacuum Fume Extractor 460V

Industrial High-Vacuum Fume Extraction

The Lincoln Electric X-Tractor 8A (K3967-2) is a robust high-vacuum welding fume extractor engineered for the rigorous demands of heavy industry. Designed to operate on a 460V, 3-phase, 60 Hz power supply, this unit provides the high static pressure necessary for effective source capture through fume extraction guns and suction nozzles. It is particularly well-suited for environments where multiple welders or robotic cells require consistent, powerful suction to maintain air quality standards. The unit's core architecture focuses on reliability and continuous operation, ensuring that production schedules are not interrupted by air quality concerns.

Automatic Filter Maintenance

A standout feature of the X-Tractor 8A is its integrated Automatic Filter Cleaning System. Unlike passive systems that require manual intervention, this unit utilizes an internal compressed air regulator to deliver timed pulses of air to the filter cartridge. This action dislodges accumulated particulate matter, depositing it into a collection bin and maintaining optimal airflow across the filter media. This automated process significantly extends the lifespan of the filter cartridge and ensures that extraction performance remains consistent throughout the work shift, reducing total cost of ownership and maintenance labor.

Integration and Control

The K3967-2 is designed for seamless integration into modern welding workflows. It features an Automatic Operation Connection, allowing the extractor to sync with welding power sources. This means the unit can automatically start when an arc is struck and stop when welding ceases, conserving energy and reducing background noise. The inclusion of a starter and overload switch provides essential electrical protection, safeguarding the motor against voltage irregularities and thermal overloads. Whether deployed in shipbuilding, structural fabrication, or automotive repair, the X-Tractor 8A delivers the performance and durability expected from Lincoln Electric industrial equipment.
