When air is forced through a dust collector, it generates velocity pressure and static pressure. Velocity is fostered by the moving air. As you come to know the velocity pressure, speed can be calculated, in feet per minute, of moving air and its volume, in cubic feet per minute. Those are two critical determining factors as to if the dust collector will serve justice in hour shop. Static pressure is actually another term for resistance friction in hoses and ducts, turbulence in elbows and other bends, as well as congestion in the fitter.
Power tool enthusiasts normally agree that a portable dust collector should deliver approximately 3500 fpm of velocity to successfully transport the dust away from one machine. An optimum velocity to 4000 fpm should be effective in accommodating a planer or tablesaw. For the dust collector to reach optimal performance level, compromises will have to be made in sacrificing an aspect of performance.
There is more than one way to mate a dust collector. The best way to mate a dust collector without the reduced volume and increased turbulence and friction is with this approach:
First, slide the dust collector as close to the...
