Q: How does a cyclone dust collector work?
It spins incoming air and debris in a circular path, so centrifugal force throws heavier dust and shavings to the outside wall and down into the collection pail while cleaner air continues on to the vacuum.
03J0218 - Dust Deputy Low-Pro Deluxe
The Dust Deputy Low-Pro Deluxe uses a cyclone separator as an easy way to both increase the capacity of your shop vacuum and extend the life of its dust filters. This compact model has been designed with a low-profile cyclonic separator, so it stands only 18 1/2" tall (11 1/4" shorter than the Deluxe model) allowing it to be conveniently stored out of the way under a work surface.
It works through cyclonic separation; as debris enters the vortex, centrifugal force concentrates the particles at the periphery. Because the cyclone it creates is conical, the debris spirals downwards, losing velocity and separating from the airstream.
As much as 99% of shavings and dust are diverted into the container, ensuring very little reaches the vacuum itself, so filters load more slowly and suction loss is minimized. For use with any shop vacuum that has a 2 1/4" I.D. hose inlet, the Dust Deputy Low-Pro collects dust inside a heavy-duty 5 gallon plastic pail designed to withstand heavy vacuum pressure.
The kit can be used freestanding or affixed to the vacuum and includes a translucent plastic lid with a cyclone separator, a 36" flex hose, an elbow fitting for vacuum connection, plus hardware that includes casters and caster mounts to widen the base and provide better stability and portability, and installation instructions. This is a good option for workshops where space is limited.
A highly efficient and effective accessory for dust-collection systems. Made in USA.
Deluxe Dust Deputy model available separately.
It spins incoming air and debris in a circular path, so centrifugal force throws heavier dust and shavings to the outside wall and down into the collection pail while cleaner air continues on to the vacuum.
A cyclone like this Dust Deputy is worth adding if you want to extend filter life and empty a pail instead of cleaning a clogged vacuum canister.
It separates dust and shavings from the airstream before they reach the vacuum, and this unit catches about 99% of debris in its 5-gallon pail.
It's compatible with hose inlets around 2 1/4" inside diameter, and includes a 36" flex hose and elbow fitting.
