Oneida Air Systems Super Dust Deputy Lightweight 4/5 DIY Cyclone Attachment for Single Stage 0.5 to 3HP Dust Collector, Accessory Only, Black

Performs even better than I expected. I've had other cyclones, but the decrease in CFM and amount of particulate that they let through was less than ideal. The Super Dust Deputy, however, performs excellently. The decrease in CFM was negligible, and it doesn't allow any particulate past, which leaves my filter clean (which also means a more consistent CFM/suction because the air more easily escapes through a clean filter). I cannot recommend this enough, and, In my opinion is well worth the price of admission.

I use this in conjunction with a grizzly hepa dust collector, this cyclone captures 95% of wood chips and sawdust, very little makes it to the grizzly, works amazing. I had used there smaller dust deputy for years with my shop vac and was amazed at how well it captured all the sawdust.

Collects most of the dust without sending it to the main bag. Much more convenient to empty cyclone than large bag.

The media could not be loaded. Like many other people said , it is not Cheap but worth it, works really efficient, I used it for the harbor freight dust collector with upgraded impeller , and changed it to two stage system and mounted it on the wall, the install of the cyclone itself is very easy and straightforward, in the package it come will seal tape, it kind of thick, and made a big gap on the area that no seal tape, so I had to make a plate from 1/4 plywood at the bottom I hope it come with a plate type seal. On the top I have a friend helped me printed the adapter using a 3D printer. I did a test run, there are barely any thing goes to the bucket, most of the chips goes to the drum. The stuff itself packed very well, fit the hose and other components very well, I did not use the manual. But the template for the bottom mount helped me when drilling holes on the plywood. The reason I give 4 stars is just because of the cost and the seal tape, I would rate it 5 star if it come with a rubber plate seal with pre-made hole

This cyclone works amazingly well. I modified my existing Delta dust collector, and added this product along with a barrel pleated filter. Item was delivered quickly and includes a couple of adaptors.

Must have fixed a leak along the way with installation of the separator, more suction, cleaner filter bag now.

The media could not be loaded. I was tired of all the fine dust throughout my shop. Even wearing a mask, it seemed that I was still inhaling dust.After much research, I purchased a dust collection vacuum system but it was not perfect. Again more & more & more ... research I realized I needed a cyclone. I could have made one or purchased a cheaper version but decided to go with a more reliable, tested system, the Oneida Air Systems.I have not regretted it. This system is going on its second year and it capture an amazing amount of sawdust. I added a second homemade cyclone and the final exhaust end is outside the building which never has any dust coming out.The Oneida Air Systems Super Dust Deputy Lightweight 4/5 does an amazing job! It is a rather large device easy to install but does require some sort of collection system and of course a vacuum. I used a plastic barrel and a makeshift wood top/shelf to support the cyclone. The barrel drops down so that it can be emptied. The duct tape was not needed, but my OCD made me secure and possible leaks.I would recommend this product and purchase again if needed.

I added this cyclone to a Delta dust collector I purchased in the early 90's. The dust collector always performed well, but the dust bag would fill with chips at the same rate as the barrel would fill. This was always annoying since I was emptying the bag every hour at times. The restricted air flow from the chip filled bag had a big impact on the draw at the machine where the chips were being collected. I did some research on cyclones and thought this looked like a simple unit to add to the dust collector. After making some adapter rings and re-configuring the piping to the dust collector, the installation was complete. Now, every chip enters the barrel and just a minimal amount of dust ends up in the bag. A simple band clamp keeps the cyclone discharge sealed to the drum lid. The entire unit is suspended from the joists above, so emptying the barrel is quick and easy. The draw at each machine is incredible since the air can exhaust freely through the unrestricted bag. It works perfect and I would highly recommend this product!
