What is a single-cartridge dust collector?
There are several types of dust collectors on the market, and single-cartridge dust collectors are just one variety.
In contrast to a baghouse dust collector, cartridge dust collectors use pleated cartridge filters. This filtered structure increases the total filtering surface area, making them smaller.
Similarly, they have increased efficiency, collecting large percentages of dust down to the tiniest of microns, as small as just 1µm.
If you are looking for a dust collector for fine particles, consider the SIP 01990 1HP Single Cartridge Dust Collector Package. Suitable for use on a wide range of materials including MDF, wheel-mounted for easy manoeuvrability, and with a 2- year warranty, order from Kendal Tools & Machinery today and enjoy free delivery with a range of payment options, including PayPal.
