The <strong>ATEX suction backsplash creates a physical barrier<\/strong> between the operator and the hazardous area. To do this, it vacuums the entire work volume horizontally. In fact, suction is evenly distributed over the entire vertical wall, both in height and length. The homogeneous air flow moves away from the operator towards the suction wall; the<strong>source of ATEX emissions<\/strong> is located in the flow path.  The suction backsplash allows longer operating areas to be suctioned than suction tables.

The principle is to <strong>encircle the source of emission<\/strong>. As a result, the annular collection device is equipped with a peripheral suction slot. This extracts the vapors over the entire opening surface. A semi-circular hood, or more, open on the side where the worker is operating, avoids dispersing vapors into the room, while still allowing<strong> operations at the circular opening<\/strong>.
