Fume extractor helps cut downtime

Adding to its recently introduced Filtair series of welding fume extractors, Miller Electric Mfg Co introduces the Filtair MWX-S, a self-cleaning mobile fume extractor designed to reduce downtime and consumables costs in heavy-duty manufacturing and fabrication environments.

Featuring a nanofiber filter designed specifically to capture the submicron particles contained in welding fumes, the MWX-S uses pulse-jet technology to restore filter life in one minute — reducing downtime by up to 97% when compared with models using cellulose filters.

Created for welding applications with high arc-on time and/or processes that produce large amounts of fumes, such as stick or flux-cored, the self-cleaning feature can pay for itself in eight cleaning cycles and reduces the chances that an operator will continue using the unit beyond its specified filter life.

The nanofiber filters are surface-loading, which means they last up to three times longer than depth-loading filters and experience less efficiency drop as they fill with welding fume particulates.

The MWX-S features 875-cfm extraction capacity. The externally supported arm is equipped with a large bell-shaped hood for optimal fume extraction and less repositioning. The Filtair is available with 7-, 10- and 12-foot extraction arms.
