CK0901-46 - Lincoln Mobiflex 400-MS Mobile Fume Extractor with 10ft Arm

Technical Overview: Lincoln Electric Mobiflex 400-MS

The Lincoln Electric Mobiflex 400-MS (SKU: CK0901-46) is a low-vacuum, mobile fume extraction system designed specifically for the filtration of welding fumes in light to medium-duty industrial applications. This package is distinguished by the inclusion of the LFA 3.1 extraction arm, which provides a 3-meter (approximately 10-foot) reach, allowing operators to position the hood effectively over the weld zone without obstructing the workflow. The unit is engineered to capture particulates at the source, preventing them from entering the welder's breathing zone or dispersing into the general facility environment.

At the core of the Mobiflex 400-MS is a high-efficiency filtration system. It utilizes a disposable cellulose filter cartridge with a substantial surface area of approximately 50 square meters. This large surface area is critical for maintaining airflow over time and extending the interval between filter replacements. The system is rated to deliver an airflow of roughly 735 CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) when equipped with the extraction arm, ensuring adequate capture velocity for standard welding processes such as MIG and Stick welding. An integrated spark arrestor functions as a primary safety mechanism, preventing hot sparks and spatter from reaching the combustible filter media.

The "Pre-wired" designation in this SKU indicates that the unit comes ready for electrical connection, minimizing setup time. The chassis is mounted on a robust wheel assembly, featuring two swivel casters and two fixed wheels, which provides excellent maneuverability across concrete shop floors. A filter status indicator is prominently displayed, offering visual feedback on the filter's saturation level, thereby enabling predictive maintenance and ensuring the system always operates at peak efficiency. This unit is an optimal solution for facilities where fixed ductwork is impractical or where welding stations are frequently reconfigured.
