951760 - Miller Filtair SWX-S Self-Cleaning Fume Extractor Package, 10 ft. ZoneFlow Arm

Miller Filtair SWX-S Self-Cleaning Fume Extraction System

The Miller Filtair SWX-S (Self-Cleaning) Single-Arm Package (951760) represents the pinnacle of industrial fume extraction technology, designed specifically to meet the rigorous demands of heavy fabrication and manufacturing environments. This wall or column-mounted system integrates Miller's proprietary ZoneFlow™ technology with a high-efficiency, self-cleaning filtration mechanism, ensuring optimal air quality and welder safety without compromising productivity.

Advanced ZoneFlow™ Technology

At the core of this package is the 10-foot ZoneFlow™ extraction arm. Unlike traditional source-capture arms that require close proximity (typically 12-18 inches) to the arc, ZoneFlow technology creates a negative pressure zone that extends the capture distance up to 5 feet. This expanded capture area is approximately three times larger than conventional systems, significantly reducing the need for welders to constantly reposition the arm. By minimizing arm interaction, arc-on time is increased, and the workflow remains uninterrupted. The arm features external adjustments for reduced airflow resistance and easy positioning across its full range of motion.

FilTek™ XL Self-Cleaning Filter

The SWX-S model is engineered for high-volume welding operations where filter maintenance can become a bottleneck. It utilizes FilTek™ XL surface-loading filter technology, which boasts a MERV 15 rating. This rating indicates the filter's ability to capture up to 95% of weld fume particulates, including sub-micron particles that are most hazardous to respiratory health. The self-cleaning mechanism is activated by a simple push-button control, initiating a one-minute reverse pulse cleaning cycle. Compressed air dislodges particulate from the filter surface, depositing it into an integrated disposal drawer for safe and easy removal. This system extends filter life up to two times that of treated cellulose filters.

Performance and Specifications

Powered by a 1 HP, 3450 RPM motor, the high-performance fan generates 1,200 CFM of airflow, delivering an Accu-Rated™ minimum of 875 CFM at the extraction hood. This powerful suction ensures that fumes are effectively drawn away from the welder's breathing zone. The system operates on standard 115 V, single-phase power, making it accessible for a wide range of facility electrical configurations. The cabinet is robustly constructed to withstand industrial environments, and the dual-fan capture zone control allows operators to toggle between a 360-degree capture zone and a 180-degree zone for wall-side positioning.
