Remote Display to Control Weller Tools MG Filtration Units

Oct 26, 2021

Weller Tools is pleased to announce that the Remote Display provides full control of fume extraction units, as well as status of filter life and blower settings.

The Remote Display is designed to read information and control settings in the filtration system’s microprocessor. The information is stored in the microprocessor of the filtration unit.

Being ESD safe, the Remote Display can sit on the work bench, making it convenient and directly accessible. The display connects to extraction units with the supplied cable.

The Remote Display is compatible with Fume Extraction Units MG100S, MG130, MG140 and RS202X, and previously discontinued WFE 2X, MG 200 and MG 400 Units.
