Retired clearvue Dust Collector (view source)
Revision as of 22:16, 8 November 2015
, 22:16, 8 November 2015→Measure Filter Back Pressure
The clear plastic tube mounted near the filter stack is a manometer. When the collector is running, the distance between the left and right columns of the manometer should be two inches or less. If it exceeds this, flow through the filter will be reduced and it must be cleaned. When the filter is clean, the back pressure will be less than 1.25".

Manometer when the dust collector needs emptying. This is way more than the 1.25" backpressure that's acceptable.
