In this study, the ejector installation has been designed and processed according to the plan and further investigated the effect of the ejector’s performance on reducing air pollutants in a welding chamber. This is done after gas and dust particles appear during the welding process. The measurement of air pollutants was carried out in two conditions. The first condition during the welding process was without using the ejector and the second condition is when the welding process continues and the ejector runs simultaneously. The measurements were made for carbon monoxide (CO) gas, nitrogen monoxide (NO) gas and total suspended particles. The ambient gas sampler was used in measuring CO and NO gases, while the Staflex air sampler measures dust particles. The results show that when the ejector is run or in the second condition, carbon monoxide and nitrogen monoxide and total dust particles are lower in concentration compared to the situation when the ejector is not running.
