OVERVIEW

Maintain Safety with Genuine Miller Replacement Parts

The Miller 276174 Filter Bowl with Guard and Auto Drain is a critical replacement component designed for Miller's advanced breathing air filtration systems. In industrial environments where respiratory safety is paramount, maintaining the integrity of your air supply equipment is non-negotiable. This filter bowl assembly plays a vital role in the three-stage filtration process that delivers Grade-D breathing air to welders and operators using supplied air respirators (SAR) or PAPR systems.

Constructed to meet the rigorous demands of heavy-duty welding applications, this assembly includes the transparent filter bowl, a robust protective guard, and an integrated auto-drain mechanism. The auto-drain feature is particularly important as it automatically expels accumulated moisture and condensate from the air line without requiring manual intervention. This prevents water saturation of the filter element, which can compromise air quality and reduce the lifespan of the filtration media. By ensuring moisture is efficiently removed, the system can continue to monitor for CO and particulates accurately.

The included protective guard adds a layer of durability, shielding the polycarbonate bowl from accidental impacts, sparks, and abrasion common in busy workshops. Visual inspection is still possible, allowing maintenance personnel to quickly check the condition of the filter and the operation of the drain. Using genuine Miller parts like the 276174 ensures perfect fitment and compatibility with your existing Miller breathing air panel, preserving the system's calibration and performance standards. Whether you are replacing a cracked bowl or performing a complete overhaul of your filtration unit, this assembly restores your equipment to factory specifications.

Key Benefits for Maintenance

  • Automatic Moisture Removal: Reduces downtime by handling condensate automatically.
  • Enhanced Durability: Metal guard protects the bowl from physical damage.
  • System Integrity: Essential for maintaining the seal and pressure required for Grade-D air.

FAQ

The auto drain automatically expels accumulated moisture and condensate from the filter bowl, preventing filter saturation and ensuring dry air delivery.

No, this part number is for the filter bowl, guard, and auto drain assembly. The filter element is typically sold separately.

It is designed for specific Miller breathing air panels. We recommend checking your equipment's parts manual or serial number to verify fitment.

The guard protects the transparent bowl from physical impact and damage in harsh industrial environments, preventing cracks and leaks.

While it physically filters air, it is specifically engineered for breathing air systems to meet Grade-D standards and may be overkill or specific for that application.

You should replace the bowl if it shows signs of cracking, crazing, leaks, or if the auto-drain mechanism fails to operate correctly.

The bowl is typically made of high-strength polycarbonate or similar transparent industrial plastic, protected by a metal guard.
