DIY Solder Fume Extractor

- Solder fume contains Flux which burns and it is harmful for our lungs and also causes irritation in the eyes. Soldering for long hours can be a health hazard when not done with proper equipment
In this video i have shown how to make a DIY Solder Fume Extractor or Sucker to extract the harmful fumes coming out of the solder wire when you are soldering.
this solder fume extractor can extract away harmful fumes from solder which can prevent the fumes from entering our body through breathing or through the eyes. it also has a carbon filter to filter the fumes coming out
the project is very easy to make. just 3d print the files and the electronics is very simple. i have used a 12v CPU fan of 80mm side length. i have powered it using a 3.7V Lithium ion battery. to step up the voltage to 12 volt i have used an MT3608 boost step up module. i have also added a TP4056 battery charger module.

Some ideas to improve the design that I might try in my own version of this:
- Either embed a threadded insert or a nut into the vertical structure to lock threads in place - this'll reduce the tools required to just the screwdriver when disassembling moving forward.
- Add some kind of mesh fence or even a loose grill to give a LITTLE more protection against (and for) the fan from the intake end (and in case any other debris might fly in - unlikely but still an option).
- Add a piece of metal or some weight to make this more bottom heavy - I prefer a bit more stability just in case; I'm clumsy at times.
- Probably doing this to just learn, but I want to try to add a speed control just 'cause (lol)
- Add a slot to easily swap filters (instead of having it sandwiched between the fan and the frame)
The main benefit of this will be that it draws the fumes away from the user. The black foam you use, and don't even specify in the B.O.M., does not look like the charcoal impregnated stuff which *might* give some marginal removal of toxics.
Amazing 👍
Astounding 👏👏👏👏🤲
Hi bro in your 3d printer,s vidio 3d printed plates buy link is not opening please give me another and your 3d printer is best I started working on it .
bro your website is not working, we couldn't place our order can you please rectify it ASAP.
Yeah bro
please what is the name of that stand you are using for holding your soldering iron and where can I get it
Hi ! I tried to turn the potentiometer, but voltage still stuck at 3.7... Why ?
If it was "proper equipment" it would extract the harmful vapours and fumes through an activated charcoal filter to the outside air.
So called solder extracts were deemed to be useless in the UK around fifteen years ago by the Health & Safety Executive upon receipt of a report into their effectiveness. My company dumped around one hundred units similar in principle to what you have made.
Look up the toxicity of rosin flux and lead fume before considering using this.
You pointed out issue, what is the solution?
