Ducting Suggestions
This dust collector is intended for single machine use and not designed to draw dust through long runs and multiple ports simultaneously. We do not recommend using ducting any longer than 10 feet. Otherwise, dust collection efficiency will be greatly reduced. However, still consider these general guidelines for efficient dust collection:
1.Machines that produce the most sawdust should have the shortest run of ducting between the dust collector and the machine. These machines include thickness planers, shapers, sanders, and bandsaws.
2.Ideally, you should design your shop layout so machines will have the shortest possible run to the dust collector.
3.Keep ducting directional changes to a mini- mum. The more directional change fittings you use, the greater the loss of overall pres- sure.
4.Gradual directional changes are more effi- cient than sudden directional changes (i.e. use the largest corner radius possible when changing hose or pipe direction).
5.The simpler the system, the more efficient and less costly it will be.
