Wood Shop Dust Collection Design Notes

Design Guidelines for Clearview Dust Collector

Inlet port on dust collector is angled up at 11 degrees.

To reduce turbulence in the collector, first 5 feet should be straight with no fittings.

Put down drop blast gates as close to the main duct as possible.

Use SRD-35 or ASTN D3034 PVC or 24 gauge spiral duct or thicker.

Two 45 degree elbows has lower resistance than a single 90. Putting a short piece of straight pipe between the 45s is best.

3 phase motor is 99 pounds.

Use at least 5" port on machines for best results.

Clearvue blast gates are sized for PVC pipe.
