300980 - Miller FILTAIR Standard Extraction Arm, 8-Inch x 7-Foot

High-Efficiency Fume Capture for Industrial Environments

The Miller 300980 Standard Extraction Arm is a critical component for maintaining air quality and safety in professional welding operations. Designed to integrate seamlessly with Miller's FILTAIR fume extraction systems, this arm provides a robust solution for capturing hazardous weld fumes at the source. The unit features an 8-inch diameter and extends up to 7 feet, offering a generous reach that accommodates various workstation configurations. Unlike traditional extraction arms that utilize internal support mechanisms, the Miller 300980 employs external adjustments. This engineering choice is pivotal as it removes obstructions from the airstream, thereby reducing static pressure and maximizing airflow (CFM) efficiency.

Durability and ease of maintenance are at the forefront of this product's design. The arm is preassembled, simplifying the installation process and reducing downtime. Its construction is rugged enough to withstand the rigors of daily industrial use, while the external joints allow for easy tension adjustments without disassembling the airflow tube. This ensures that the arm remains stable and holds its position reliably during operation, preventing the "droop" often associated with lesser quality extraction arms.

The extraction hood itself is shaped in a bellmouth design, optimized to capture fumes from a greater distance than standard hoods. This allows welders to work with fewer interruptions for arm repositioning. Furthermore, the hood boasts a convenient 360-degree rotation capability, enabling unlimited positioning options to suit specific welding angles and workpiece geometries. Whether used in a fabrication shop, a manufacturing plant, or a maintenance facility, the Miller 300980 Standard Extraction Arm delivers the performance and reliability required for effective fume management.

Key Technical Benefits:

• Unobstructed Airflow: External support design minimizes pressure drop.
• Extended Reach: 7-foot length covers large work envelopes.
• Precise Positioning: Stays in place once positioned, enhancing workflow.
