Charnwood CF2024 Cartridge Filter 1 Micron for 500mm Diameter Collector

Upgrade your dust or chip extractor to handle the finest workshop dust.

This cartridge filter can be used to upgrade any chip extractor with a 500mm diameter collection drum. Replace the cloth filtration bag with a cartridge to increase the filtration performance down to a super fine, 1 micron particle size. The extra deep pleats in the filter material, increase the surface area of the filter so that there is no loss in air flow compared to the original cloth filter.

This allows the extractor to be used for operations which produce very fine dust such as sanding and cutting MDF. The particle size of fine woodworking dust is generally between 2 and 3 microns. Research shows 99% of wood dust, produced by machining softwood, hardwood or MDF, is within that range. The extractor can still be used with all the normal workshop machines which produce dust and chips, such as: bandsaws, table saws, planers, thicknessers and spindle moulders.

The cartridge is very simple to install, simply remove the cloth bag and support arm on the extractor then fit the cartridge in its place. A metal quick action clamp secures the cartridge in place.

To ensure the filter stays unclogged without any deterioration in performance the filter includes an internal cleaning device. Gently rotating the handles, moves the internal paddles which clean the inside of the filter and prevent clogging.

Supplied with metal fixing clamp and foam insert to ensure a good seal against the collector drum.

How Often Should It Be Cleaned?
To maintain optimum performance, we recommend: Every time the extractor is turned off, or every 15 minutes during prolonged periods of running. It can be cleaned whilst the extractor is still running.

What Is A Cleaning Cycle?
Rotate the handle 2 full turns in each direction.

What Are The Symptoms Of A Clogged Filter?
1) Because the air cannot escape from inside the extractor there is a build up of pressure inside. Air will be forced out of joins and seals which are normally airtight. Dust might be seen leaking out from unexpected places.
2) There will be a significant drop in airflow, and therefore collection performance, of the extractor.
