951620 - Miller Filtair SWX-S Self-Cleaning Fume Extractor with 3-4.5 ft Telescoping Arm

Miller Filtair SWX-S Technical Overview

The Miller Filtair SWX-S (Self-Cleaning) Single Arm Fume Extractor, SKU 951620, is a premier source capture solution designed for industrial welding environments requiring high-efficiency filtration and minimal maintenance. This package includes the SWX-S cabinet, a high-performance 115V blower, and a specialized 3 to 4.5-foot telescoping extraction arm, making it an ideal configuration for stationary welding booths or areas with limited overhead clearance.

At the core of the system is Miller's proprietary FilTek XL filter technology. Unlike standard cellulose filters, FilTek XL utilizes a surface-loading nanofiber media that captures up to 95% of weld fume particulate, achieving a MERV 15 rating. This surface-loading characteristic is critical for the system's self-cleaning capability. The SWX-S model features an integrated cleaning mechanism that uses a reverse pulse of compressed air to dislodge particulate from the filter media, depositing it into an easy-access disposal drawer. This one-minute cleaning cycle significantly extends filter life and ensures consistent airflow performance over time.

The included telescoping arm provides a reach of 3 to 4.5 feet and features a durable bellmouth-shaped hood with 360-degree rotation. The arm is designed for smooth positioning and reliable hold, ensuring the capture zone remains focused on the arc. The system generates a powerful 1,200 CFM at the fan and an Accu-Rated minimum of 875 CFM at the hood, surpassing many competitors in suction power. Installation options include wall or column mounting, providing flexibility for facility layout. The unit operates on standard 115V single-phase power, drawing approximately 12 amps.
