The Dust Deputy turns your single-stage dust extractor into an efficient, effective two-stage extraction system, minimising suction loss, reducing filter changes and improving workshop air quality.
Its cyclone technology works on a wide range of materials. Oneida’s 4/5 Dust Deputy range is ideal for the serious enthusiast and professional woodworker.
Cyclone Technology
The principle behind cyclone separation is straightforward. The air containing particles enters the cyclone chamber from the side which causes it to spin rapidly around inside the chamber. The dust particles are thrown against the inside wall of the chamber, where they drop out of the airflow and fall into the collection chamber beneath. A low pressure zone develops in the centre of the cyclone through which the clean air is able to exit. Cyclone separation typically removes 99% of particles, leaving the smallest 1% to be captured by filtration.
Universal Compatibility
Any dust extractor that is rated at 350cfm or greater can be used with the Dust Deputy.
Reduce filter changes
There are no filters inside the Dust Deputy – the dust is removed solely through cyclonic action. Only 1% of the material makes it through the cyclone to be caught in your vacuum’s filter, massively reducing the number of times you need to clean it out.
Reduce Suction Loss
A filter caked with dust will increase resistance to the airflow and can significantly reduce suction. The Dust Deputy removes the dust before it even gets to the vacuum. When your filter is not getting blocked up, the vacuum will continue to run at full air velocity for much longer.
Easy Emptying
The Dust Deputy 4/5 Deluxe kit can be mounted to a wide range of strong collection containers, so emptying the dust is as easy as removing the container’s lid and dumping its contents.
