OVERVIEW

Keep Your Shop Safe from Filter Fires

Welding and grinding create a lot of sparks, and if you are using a fume extractor, those sparks are being sucked right into your system. The last thing you want is a hot ember landing on a paper or fabric filter cartridge and starting a fire inside your machine. The Diversitech 10" Spark Trap is the simple, effective solution to stop sparks dead in their tracks before they ever reach your collector.

This 10-inch unit installs easily into your existing ductwork setup. It works like a shield for your expensive equipment. As air passes through the trap, internal baffles and the shape of the unit force the air to spin and change direction. This action knocks the sparks out of the airstream and cools them down instantly, so only clean, cool air moves on to the filters. It’s built tough from steel to handle the abuse of a busy fabrication shop and doesn't have any moving parts that can break or wear out.

Whether you are running a plasma table, a heavy grinding station, or just doing high-amperage welding, a spark trap is a must-have accessory. It gives you peace of mind knowing that you aren't just extracting fumes, but doing it safely. Don't risk burning down your collector or damaging your filters—add the DIVST-10 to your 10-inch duct run and keep your operation running smoothly and safely.

FAQ

Its primary function is to extinguish sparks and hot embers in the ductwork before they reach the fume extractor's filter media, preventing fires.

The unit is designed with a low pressure drop to minimize restriction, ensuring that your fume extractor maintains strong suction while still providing safety.

It should be installed in the ductwork line, ideally as close to the source of spark generation (like a grinding table) as possible, but before the fume extractor unit.

Yes, it is designed to fit standard 10-inch diameter industrial ducting and can be secured with standard clamps or flanges.

It is a passive device with no moving parts. However, it should be inspected periodically to ensure there is no excessive buildup of debris that could affect performance.

While it stops sparks, aluminum dust presents an explosion hazard (combustible dust). You should consult NFPA standards and safety experts for specific requirements regarding aluminum dust extraction.

It is constructed from heavy-gauge steel to withstand the heat of sparks and the rigors of an industrial environment.

Welding and grinding generate hot particles that can travel through ducts. If these hit a flammable filter, they can cause a fire. A spark trap prevents this.
