Miller Filtair MWX Hood Light and Auto-Start Sensor Kit

See Better and Breathe Easier with the Miller MWX Hood Light Kit

As a welder, your focus needs to be on the puddle, not on fiddling with switches on your safety gear. The Miller Filtair MWX Hood Light Kit (300689) is designed to make your life easier and your welds better. This accessory is a must-have add-on for owners of the Miller FILTAIR MWX-D or MWX-S mobile fume extractors. It solves two common problems in the shop: poor visibility under the hood and the hassle of constantly turning your fume extractor on and off.

Spotlight on the Weld
Positioning a fume extraction arm correctly is key to safety, but sometimes that arm blocks your overhead lighting. This kit installs a bright light directly inside the extraction hood. Because you position the hood right over your weld zone to catch fumes, the light goes exactly where you need it most. No more repositioning magnetic work lights or straining your eyes in the shadows; the light follows the arm, giving you a clear view of the joint and the arc.

Automatic Extraction
The coolest feature of this kit is the integrated arc sensor. We've all been there—you get set up, drop your helmet, strike an arc, and then realize you forgot to turn on the fume extractor. With this sensor installed, the MWX unit detects the moment you strike an arc and turns itself on automatically. It handles the on/off cycle for you, so you can keep your gloves on and your focus on the bead. It ensures you are always protected from weld fumes without breaking your rhythm.

Easy Installation
This is a genuine Miller accessory, meaning it fits perfectly with your existing MWX equipment. It is a field-installed kit that mounts securely inside the hood at the end of the extraction arm. It connects directly to the control system of the MWX-D or MWX-S, providing a seamless upgrade to your mobile fume extraction setup. Improve your weld quality with better light and protect your lungs with guaranteed extraction—all with one simple upgrade.
