Is hopper size important?
In fact it is perhaps the single most important element in allowing long filter life. A large hopper allows the air velocity to slow down as it comes in from the ducting. This reduces the chance of abrasion as the cause of filter failure. A BETTER DUST COLLECTOR: Largest hopper for long filter life A large hopper will allow the incoming air to drop to a lower velocity as the dust laden air hits the filters. If the velocity is too high, the dust can actually wear holes in the filter units. The lower the velocity, the less filter abrasion. Lightest weight for easy pulling Without sacrificing performance, we have reduced the overall weight to make the unit easier to pull. Largest pulse reservoir for high power pulse cleaning The number one cause of filter clogging is insufficient pulse cleaning pressure. An 8″ diameter reservoir provides maximum volume for high impact pulse cleaning. Top removal of cartridge filters Top removal means you can stand on a safe platform while you easily loose
