Miller introduces wall-mounted fume extractor

By Janice Wood · May 19, 2010 ·

Miller Electric Mfg. Co. introduces the new FILTAIR SWX-series of wall-mount welding fume extractors, featuring Miller’s nanofiber filter technology. Available in either the self-cleaning SWX-S model or the disposable filter SWX-D model, the SWX-series allows companies to improve air quality and protect employees without cluttering their shop floors, Miller officials said.

Like the mobile FILTAIR MWX-series, the SWX-series uses surface-loading nanofiber filters designed to capture the sub-micron particles found in welding fumes, including hexavalent chromium and manganese. Because the nanofiber filters are‘surface-loading, they offer more holding capacity and less pressure drop than competitive, depth-loading fume filters, company officials said.
