Hi All
Looking for a quite extraction system for a Chinese CO2 laser. Must move fumes/smoke at-least 5mts but ideally 25mts. I will use mainly 150mm PVC piping with 22deg bends where necessary (only a couple mainly straight line). Initially thought of using 1 or 2 inline fans but the more I look into this the more complex the solution becomes. Static air, positive pressure, negative pressure etc. I was going to get the biggest fan for my budget and then discovered diameter of pipe is important.
Any suggestions or examples of what others have used would be greatly appreciated.
I will be taking delivery of my laser in about 30 days & it comes with a 550w fan (blow up castle style) which I believe are very noisy. can they be baffled?
i don't want to spend $1200 on a filter system just yet.
PS I was going to say its not rocket science....But I'm sure someone would have inform me it actually is..
Cheers
