PM1200 specifications

The Powermatic PM1200 is a powerful dust collector designed for woodworking professionals and enthusiasts. It excels in maintaining a clean and safe working environment by efficiently capturing harmful dust and particles generated during woodworking processes. The PM1200 is known for its robust construction, user-friendly features, and advanced technologies that set it apart from other dust collectors on the market.

One of the standout features of the PM1200 is its impressive 1.5-horsepower motor, which provides ample suction power. This motor allows the PM1200 to operate at a high CFM (cubic feet per minute) rating, ensuring that it can effectively remove dust while you work. The collector is equipped with a 1-micron canister filter that captures fine particles, promoting healthier air quality in the workshop.

In terms of efficiency, the PM1200 features a unique quick-release filter system. This allows users to easily access and clean the filter, which enhances the machine's performance and extends filter life. Additionally, the PM1200 incorporates a revolutionary "Jet" filtration technology, increasing filtration surface area without adding extra bulk. This results in minimized airflow restriction and maximized dust collection capability.

The PM1200 is designed with user convenience in mind. It boasts an easy-to-use control panel, allowing operators to adjust settings effortlessly. The dust collector is equipped with a 5-inch inlet that can conveniently accommodate various tools, including table saws, band saws, and planers. This versatility ensures that you can connect multiple machines simultaneously.

Moreover, the PM1200 features a sturdy mobile base, providing stability while also allowing easy maneuverability around the shop. The included collection bag holds up to 12 cubic feet of dust, reducing the frequency of emptying and enhancing productivity.

Durability is a key characteristic of the PM1200, constructed with high-quality materials to withstand the rigors of daily use. Its steel connector yoke creates a tight seal between the canister and the base, preventing any dust leaks during operation.

In summary, the Powermatic PM1200 is a top-tier dust collector that combines power, efficiency, and user-friendly design, making it an ideal choice for serious woodworkers. With its superior filtration capabilities, robust construction, and convenient features, the PM1200 ensures a cleaner, safer working environment, allowing you to focus on your craft.
