4" Cyclone Dust Separator Kit

Help protect your dust collector from unnecessary wear and tear with our unique Dust Separator Kit. Two elbows and two couplers combine to give you in feed and out feed points when they are installed on a barrel, box, or any container (barrel or box not included) that you would like to capture large wood chips in. The separator works by simply allowing the heavy wood chips to fall to the bottom of the container, while the lighter dust particles get pulled in the out feed port and into your dust collector. This keeps the large debris from slamming into your dust collector’s impeller, which in turn prevents any unnecessary damage to the unit. Separating the large wood chips also keeps your dust collector bag or container from filling up so fast, this means you won’t have to empty it as often! The Dust Separator Kit is perfect for use with Jointers, Planers, Router Table units and more!

For Use with Barrels Trash Cans Buckets or Custom Built Containers

Some workshops need large dust collection systems with large container to trap the large debris that flows through the dust collection lines. What about the rest of us with our home workshops with smaller dust collection systems? The 4 inch Dust Separator Cyclone Dust Collector Kit steps in quite nicely to fill this void and more. The best part is that not only does it work, you won't break the bank either!

Heavier Debris Falls while the Lighter Dust Stays on Top

The basic idea behind cyclonic dust separators is to have the natural force of gravity pull the heavier wood debris down to the bottom of the barrel while the lighter dust particle stay up top and flow into your dust collector. Once setup, the 4 inch Dust Separator Cyclone Dust Collector Kit will do this just like any other premium cyclone system only at a fraction of the cost.

Protect Your Investment

Dust collection has become one of the most important aspects of woodworking safety. With this, comes a bit of a cost to make sure that we are keep dust particles at bay when we are working with wood. When we use our dust collectors with machines like, jointers, planers and even routers those tools tend to produce large chips or shavings that can be very harmful to your dust collectors impeller. The impeller is essentially what draws the dust and debris into the collection unit and into the bag. If large, heavy chips and debris continually hit the impeller, it will eventually wear down and will have to be replaced. To prevent this and to dramatically increase the lifespan of your dust collector impeller, we strongly recommend using our 4 inch Dust Separator Cyclone Dust Collector Kit.

Find the Right Container For What You Do...

Typically the container size you would use is dictated by the amount of chips you normally produce when using your jointer, router table or planer machines with your dust collector. Most any container will work as long as it has a lid that is firmly secured. We recommend using rigid type containers like the ones shown here. These containers also include lids that are secured on by a clamping system which is also recommended for optimum results. Lids and containers are NOT included.

Set Up and Installation

Considering that to install the 4 inch Dust Separator Cyclone Dust Collector Kit on to a container lid means that we will have to physically cut holes into the lid, the installation may take more than a few minutes. That being said, we have included easy to follow instructions as well as a scale template of the exact hole size to make transferring the pattern to the lid super easy.

We have included the following in this kit...

• 2 each 4 inch top side ports
• 2 each 4 inch bottom side half length elbows
• 2 each 4 inch key secure hose clamps
• 1 each full color instruction
• 1 each template for hole cut out
• 1 pack of nuts and bolts mounting hardware
