Solder Fume Extractor | Desktop Smoke Absorber for Electronics Repair

A solder fume extractor is a device designed to capture and filter harmful fumes, particulates, and gases that are generated during soldering, repairs, or other craft processes. The smoke produced during soldering is not just unpleasant; it contains chemicals that can be harmful to your respiratory health. Using a fume extractor purifies the air at its source, creating a safer and cleaner work environment.

Our purifiers work through a simple three-step process: Capture: A powerful internal fan (such as a turbine or a quiet brushless fan) creates suction, drawing smoke away from the work area through a flexible duct. Filter: The captured air is pulled through a multi-layer filtration system. This typically includes a pre-filter for large particles, a HEPA filter for fine particulates, and an activated carbon core to absorb harmful gases and odors. Release: Once thoroughly purified, clean air is released back into the room.

The replacement frequency for filters depends on several factors, including how often you use the unit, the types of materials you work with, and the ventilation of your workspace. As a general guideline for daily users, we recommend replacing the main filter every 3 to 6 months. A noticeable decrease in suction power or the inability to remove odors are clear signs that it's time for a replacement.

You can select the best model for your needs based on the following: Workspace Size: If your bench space is limited, a compact model like the TBK-638mini is an ideal choice. Application Type: For standard circuit board soldering, most of our models are suitable. For more complex work, a 3-in-1 unit like the TBK F001—which integrates a UV curing lamp and a cooling fan—can significantly improve your workflow. Intensity of Use: For long, continuous operation or for use with equipment like laser engravers, you should choose a model with stronger suction designed for heavy-duty applications.

Yes. In addition to soldering, these purifiers are highly effective for any activity that generates smoke, dust, or noxious fumes, such as: Laser engraving and cutting 3D printing Model making and airbrushing Working with chemicals in a lab Arts and crafts involving solvents or adhesives

We understand that a quiet work environment is important. Many of our models are engineered for low-noise operation, often using quiet brushless fan technology. The noise level is typically comparable to a small office fan and is not considered disruptive.

An LED light integrated into the nozzle of the suction duct is a highly practical feature. It directly illuminates your work area, ensuring you have a clear view for precision soldering or repair tasks without needing extra lighting, making your work easier and more accurate.
