Powered by a 2hp Induction motor rated for continuous running, up to 8 hours per day. A sturdy frame supports the fan unit and lifts the inlet port to a height of 110cm, which can give increased efficiency when a hose branch goes overhead or stays at bench height.
These larger collectors are ideal for locations where the extractor will be cited a little way from the dust source. The higher flowrate also allows a small system of hose branch lines to be fitted around the workshop to allow extraction from a variety of machines and even 2 at the same time.
The motor drives a riveted steel fan, which creates the airflow, depositing all dust, chips and shavings into the collection bag.
When it comes to emptying the collection bag, a quick release metal strap frees the bag, ready for replacement. Spring clamps hold the new collection bag in position whilst the metal strap is being refitted fitted. Anyone who has changed a bag without that feature will certainly appreciate it. A foam strip around the rim of the collector body ensures a good seal once the strap is clamped shut.
The standard cloth filtration bag is replaced with a cartridge filter to increase the filtration performance down to a super fine, 1 micron particle size. The extra deep pleats in the filter material, increase the surface area of the filter so that there is no loss in air flow compared to the original cloth filter.
This allows the extractor to be used for operations which produce very fine dust such as sanding and cutting MDF. The particle size of fine woodworking dust is generally between 2 and 3 microns. Research shows 99% of wood dust, produced by machining softwood, hardwood or MDF, is within that range. The extractor can still be used with all the normal workshop machines which produce dust and chips, such as: bandsaws, table saws, planers, thicknessers and spindle moulders.
To ensure a long life without any deterioration in performance the filter includes an internal cleaning device. Gently rotating the handle, moves the internal paddles which clean the inside of the filter and prevent clogging.
