Introducing The Bernard® Clean Air E™
Welding professionals face daily challenges in keeping their work environment clean and safe. With strict weld fume regulations, effective fume control is more important than ever. The Bernard® Clean Air E™ fume extraction MIG gun helps by capturing welding fumes directly at the source without sacrificing performance.
Why Source Capture Matters

Capturing weld fume as close to the point of generation as possible, also known as source capture, is one of the most effective ways to reduce exposure. Unlike general ventilation or ambient air systems that dilute fumes, source capture methods like fume extraction guns immediately remove hazardous particles, helping improve air quality for operators and surrounding workers.
The Clean Air E™ captures up to 95% of fume at the source. The gun is built with adjustable extraction control through interchangeable shroud lengths and a slider allowing operators to fine-tune suction levels without affecting shielding gas coverage. This balance is critical for maintaining weld quality while maximizing fume capture.
Key Benefits of the Clean Air E™
Efficient Extraction
By removing up to 95% of fumes directly at the arc, the Clean Air E™ helps reduce exposure risks and contributes to a cleaner workspace.
Enhanced Ergonomics
With a lightweight handle design, the Clean Air E™ allows you to weld longer without fatigue. The ball swivel at the rear of the handle makes maneuvering easier, even in difficult positions.
Engineered for Endurance
This fume gun is built to withstand the toughest working environments. Made from durable, tested materials, it features a robust and straightforward design for easy maintenance.

Designed for Demanding Applications
Ideal for high-amperage and high-deposition rate applications, the Clean Air E™ is well-suited for industries such as: Shipbuilding, Heavy equipment manufacturing, General fabrication and manufacturing
Ergonomic and Easy to Use
Unlike bulky ventilation systems, fume extraction guns like the Clean Air E™ seamlessly integrate into a welder’s workflow. With a lightweight, ergonomic design and a user-friendly adjustment slider on the guns handle, it operates much like a standard MIG gun while providing the added benefit of fume extraction.

Customizable
We know every welder has their own preference when it comes to welding style. That’s why we designed two trigger options—a button and a lever, plus an extended lever for added comfort. We also made the shrouds interchangeable, offering three lengths to optimize either weld visibility or fume extraction, depending on your application.
A Smarter Step Toward Safer Welding
No single solution eliminates all welding fume exposure, but using a fume extraction gun alongside a compatible extraction unit like the Miller® Filtair®215 can significantly improve a workplace environment. The Bernard® Clean Air E™ provides a practical, effective way to prioritize welder safety and performance.
