The Low-Profile version of Oneida’s famous Dust Deputy DIY is here! Perfect for building an under-bench cyclone system or for any situation where space is tight.
The Dust Deputy Low Pro turns your tired old wet ‘n’ dry vacuum machine into a sleek, low-profile 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. Whether you are a woodworker, a DIYer, a bone or stone carver, or a teenager whose parents are coming home after a weekend away and you need to tidy up in a hurry, the Dust Deputy Low Pro will speed up your cleanup.
Made from clear, durable resin and designed for vacuums with 2.5" hoses, the Low-Pro lid separator attaches to the standard 20 litre buckets available from major hardware stores.
The DIY Kit contains:
- Anti-Static Dust Deputy Low-Profile Lid Separator
- Bucket Latch Pack
- Pre-cut Neoprene Foam Gaskets
- Lid Mounting Hardware
Additional Components Needed
- Wet/Dry Vacuum with a 2.5" Hose Inlet
- Reinforced, Airtight 12" Dia. 5-Gallon Dust Container
- Vacuum Connection Hose (2.5" recommended)
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 wet ‘n’ dry vacuum that is rated at 50cfm or greater can be used with the Dust Deputy Low Pro.
Reduce filter changes
There are no filters inside the Dust Deputy Low Pro – 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 Low Pro 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.
