247921 - Miller PAPR Spark Guard Screen 247921

Essential Protection for Your Respiratory Equipment

The Miller 247921 Spark Arrestor is a vital safety component designed specifically for Miller Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) systems. In industrial environments where welding, gouging, and grinding generate significant amounts of airborne debris and hot particulate, protecting your respiratory equipment is just as important as protecting your lungs. This spark arrestor serves as the first line of defense in your PAPR's filtration assembly, positioned directly at the air intake to intercept hot sparks before they can travel further into the unit.

Constructed from a durable metal mesh, the spark arrestor effectively cools and stops incandescent particles. Without this barrier, hot sparks could land on the pre-filter or the main HEPA filter, potentially burning holes in the media or, in worst-case scenarios, causing the filter materials to smolder or ignite. By installing the Miller 247921, you ensure the integrity of your filtration system remains uncompromised, thereby maintaining the high-efficiency protection required for safe operation in hazardous atmospheres.

Cost-Effective Equipment Maintenance

Replacing a main HEPA filter can be a significant expense. The Miller Spark Arrestor helps prolong the life of these more expensive consumables by preventing physical damage from coarse debris and heat. It is an economical investment that safeguards the longevity of the entire blower unit. Regular inspection of the spark arrestor is recommended; while it is durable, it should be kept clean and replaced if the mesh becomes damaged or clogged to ensure optimal airflow and protection.

Genuine Miller Quality

As a genuine Miller replacement part, this spark arrestor is engineered to fit perfectly within the filter cover assembly of Miller PAPR units. There is no guessing regarding fitment or gaps that could allow debris to bypass the screen. Trust in original manufacturer parts to maintain the NIOSH certification and safety standards of your respiratory protection equipment.
