Model W1823 (Mfg. Since 9/10)
COLLECTION SYSTEM
System Setup
The Model W1823 is designed to collect dust from one large machine or two small machines at a time. This can be accomplished by either connecting it to one machine at a time or by connecting it to multiple machines and using blast gates to isolate different dust lines. This machine also works quite well as a
Tips for Optimum Performance
•Keep ducts between the dust collector and machines as short as possible.
•Note that flex hose reduces CFM more than smooth- walled duct.
•Keep ducting directional changes to a minimum. The more curved fittings you use, the more resistance to flow, resulting in loss of suction.
•Gradual directional changes are more efficient than sudden directional changes (i.e. use 45° elbows in place of 90° elbows whenever possible).
•Use
•The simpler the system, the more efficient and less costly it will be.
•If the dust collector is attached to a 2" or 21⁄2" collection port, open another blast gate to increase the amount of CFM or airflow to maintain proper cyclonic action and dust separation.
