W1685, DUST COLLECTORS, W1666 specifications

Woodstock W1666 and W1685 dust collectors are essential tools for woodworking enthusiasts and professionals seeking to maintain a clean and safe workspace. Both models offer powerful dust collection capabilities while featuring unique characteristics that cater to different needs in the workshop.

The Woodstock W1666 is a 1.5 horsepower dust collector designed for small to medium-sized woodshops. One of its main features is a 1,200 CFM (cubic feet per minute) airflow rating, which efficiently captures dust and debris from various woodworking machines. The unit is equipped with a 30-micron bag that effectively filters out larger particles, ensuring cleaner air in the shop. For improved filtration, users can upgrade to a 1-micron canister filter, which captures even the finer dust particles, enhancing indoor air quality.

Another notable characteristic of the W1666 is its portable design. It comes with a sturdy base and four wheels, enabling easy maneuverability throughout the workshop. The dust collector's compact size allows it to be placed in tight spaces without compromising its performance. Additionally, the clear plastic upper bag allows users to easily monitor the dust collection level, minimizing interruptions during work sessions.

On the other hand, the Woodstock W1685 dust collector is a more robust option, featuring a 1.75 horsepower motor capable of generating an impressive 1,300 CFM airflow. This makes it ideal for larger woodworking shops with multiple machines running simultaneously. Its 5-micron bag filter is standard, but users can also opt for a 1-micron canister filter for enhanced particle capture. The larger capacity of the collection bag reduces the frequency of emptying, allowing for extended uninterrupted operation.

Both models employ an easy-to-use snap-in bag system that simplifies the process of changing the collection bags. This user-friendly design minimizes downtime, enabling users to focus on their projects. Furthermore, both dust collectors come with dust ports available in various sizes, allowing for easy connections to numerous machines, from table saws to planers.

In conclusion, the Woodstock W1666 and W1685 dust collectors provide effective solutions for maintaining a clean and healthy woodworking environment. With their powerful motors, efficient filtration options, and convenient features, both models cater to various workshop sizes and needs, ensuring that woodworkers can concentrate on their craft without the distractions and dangers of dust accumulation.
