Abstract
An improved welding fume and spark trap includes a cannister and an inlet and outlet plenum for connection with an air filtration suction system designed to remove soot, fumes, and other particles from a welding area. The trap includes an internal baffle for reducing the velocity of the air stream passing through the trap, in this way promoting settling of particles suspended within the air stream into water contained within a water chamber defined by the bottom portion of the cannister.
