951515 - Miller Filtair SWX-D Single-Arm Fume Extractor, 12ft Arm (951515)

Miller Filtair SWX-D: Advanced Stationary Fume Extraction

The Miller Filtair SWX-D (951515) is a high-performance, wall or column-mounted weld fume extraction system designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial manufacturing, fabrication shops, and training centers. This specific package includes the SWX-D cabinet paired with a 12-foot standard extraction arm, offering a comprehensive solution for capturing weld fumes at the source. The system is engineered around Miller's proprietary FilTek XL Filter Technology, which utilizes a disposable filter media specifically designed for welding applications. Unlike generic cellulose filters, FilTek XL features a surface layer of nanofibers that traps up to 95% of weld fume particulates, achieving a MERV 15 rating. This surface-loading technology not only ensures superior filtration efficiency but also extends filter life by up to two times compared to treated cellulose alternatives.

At the heart of the SWX-D system is a powerful 1 HP motor and high-performance fan capable of generating 1,200 CFM of free air. When equipped with the included 12-foot arm, the system delivers an Accu-Rated minimum of 875 CFM at the hood, ensuring robust capture velocity even at a distance. The extraction arm itself is designed for minimal airflow resistance, featuring external adjustments that keep the interior ducting smooth and unobstructed. This design maximizes suction power while allowing for reliable, accurate positioning across the arm's full range of motion. The arm is capped with a durable bellmouth-shaped hood that rotates 360 degrees, providing unlimited positioning flexibility to suit various weldment geometries.

The SWX-D model is the disposable filter variant of the SWX series, making it an ideal choice for light-duty or intermittent welding operations where ease of maintenance is a priority. The unit features a front-panel filter pressure gauge that provides a clear visual indication of filter status, eliminating guesswork regarding replacement intervals. Installation is straightforward with the included mounting bracket and 115V control box, allowing for integration into existing shop layouts without consuming valuable floor space. With its industrial-grade metal cabinet and heavy-duty construction, the Miller Filtair SWX-D is built to withstand the daily rigors of the welding environment while maintaining a cleaner, safer workspace.
