301044004 - Miller FILTAIR 4x8 Low Profile Extraction Hood

Engineered for Efficiency and Space Optimization

The Miller FILTAIR® 4x8 Low Profile Modular Hood (301044004) represents a specialized solution for industrial fume extraction, specifically engineered to address the challenges of facilities with spatial constraints. In many manufacturing and fabrication environments, overhead clearance is a premium commodity due to low ceilings, overhead cranes, or extensive ductwork. This modular hood solves that problem with a sleek, low-profile design that stands only 18 inches in height while providing a substantial 4-foot by 8-foot capture zone. By minimizing the vertical footprint, Miller allows facility managers to implement robust air quality controls without interfering with other overhead operations.

Advanced Fume Capture Technology

Designed to capture thermally generated fumes from welding, cutting, and other industrial processes, this hood utilizes the natural buoyancy of hot gases to contain contaminants effectively. The hood's geometry is optimized to create a containment zone that prevents fumes from escaping into the general plant atmosphere. While the hood itself is a passive capture device, when paired with an appropriate blower and filtration system, it becomes a critical component in maintaining OSHA compliance and protecting worker health. The wide 4x8 coverage area is particularly beneficial for large weldments or automation cells where the source of the fume may move or where multiple operators are working simultaneously.

Installation and Durability

Constructed for the rigors of industrial environments, the FILTAIR Low Profile Hood features a robust build that ensures longevity. Installation is streamlined through the inclusion of corner lift hooks, which allow for secure suspension from the ceiling structure using chains or cables. This design simplifies the rigging process, reducing installation time and labor costs. The modular nature of the FILTAIR line means this hood can be integrated into broader central extraction systems, allowing for scalable air quality solutions tailored to the specific layout and needs of the workshop. Whether used for manual welding stations or robotic cells, the 301044004 delivers reliable performance in a compact package.
