OVERVIEW

Breathe Easier with the Fred Jr

Welding produces nasty stuff—hexavalent chromium, manganese, and thick clouds of smoke that you don't want in your lungs. The Diversitech Fred Jr (3.0HP) is your best defense against welding fumes. This isn't a weak hobbyist fan; it's a 575V industrial beast with a 3-horsepower motor designed to suck smoke away from your face before you even smell it.

Why You'll Love It:

  • It Cleans Itself: You hate banging out filters, right? The Fred Jr has a self-cleaning button. Hook it up to shop air, and it blasts the dust off the filter from the inside out, dropping it into a tray you can empty later. This keeps the suction strong and the filter lasting way longer.
  • Roll It Anywhere: Whether you're welding on a bench or fabricating a large frame on the floor, this unit is on wheels. Just roll it over, position the arm (sold separately or included depending on bundle), and get to work.
  • Serious Suction: The 3.0HP motor is a step up from the standard 1.5HP models. It pulls harder, meaning you don't have to constantly readjust the hood every time you move an inch. It grabs the smoke effectively, keeping your vision clear and your lungs happy.

This model runs on 575-volt 3-phase power, so it's ready for the big shop plugs. Don't settle for hazy air; get the Fred Jr and keep your workspace professional and safe.
