Upgrade your dust or chip extractor to handle the finest workshop dust. This cartridge filter can be used to upgrade any chip extractor with a 500mm diameter collection drum. Replace the cloth filtration bag with a cartridge to increase the filtration performance down to a super fine, 1 micron particle size. The extra deep pleats in the filter material, increase the surface area of the filter so that there is no loss in air flow compared to the original cloth filter.
This allows the extractor to be used for operations which produce very fine dust such as sanding and cutting MDF. The particle size of fine woodworking dust is generally between 2 and 3 microns. Research shows 99% of wood dust, produced by machining softwood, hardwood or MDF, is within that range. The extractor can still be used with all the normal workshop machines which produce dust and chips, such as: band saws, table saws, planers, thicknessers and spindle moulders.
The cartridge is very simple to install, simply remove the cloth bag and support arm on the extractor then fit the cartridge in its place. A metal quick action clamp secures the cartridge
in place.
To ensure a long life without any deterioration in performance the filter includes an internal cleaning device. Gently rotating the handles after each use, moves the internal paddles which clean the inside of the filter and prevent clogging. Supplied with metal fixing clamp and foam insert to ensure a good seal against the collector drum.
We offer these cartridges to fit either 500 or 370 diameter drum compatible with many makes such as Charnwood, SIP, FOX, Axminster etc.
