Dust separator cyclones are very popular at the moment but loads of people are getting the wrong information about dust cyclones and how to buy the right one!
Most of the videos you see comparing different types of cyclone are missing a HUGE point! watch now and save some pain and money.

Interesting!
One key thing to remember is that shop vacs and vacuum cleaners have high suction and low airflow. Dust collectors have low suction and high airflow. So for the dust collectors 4" and bigger pipe size is way to go. For the shop vacs 3" and smaller is the right pipe size. I learned that from the dust collector "guru" Bill Pentz. He has everything explained in high detail.
Fabulous comment! So so true. Thanks for watching!
One of the mistakes I see people making is thinking the "power" of a central vacuum is going to be concentrated if they put a reducer on the end that is picking up the dust via a small cyclone. Power in flow dynamics is a lot like electricity. Think of suction as voltage, and flow as current (an easier likeness to envision). Let's say we have a giant wire connected to a source measured at 12 volts, and another smaller wire, also with 12 volts at its source. At a short distance from either 12V power source, the voltage measured at the end of each wire is nearly the same. As the distance increases, there will eventually be some loss of voltage at the distal end of the smaller wire, but for the most part, assuming a "typical" length, the voltage will remain the same. Now, let's connect the smaller wire to an auto's starter motor and try to fire the engine. The smaller wire cannot move enough electricity to power the starter motor. Now do the same with the very heavy wire. The car's engine would likely start without issue. So, voltage and length are equal specs in both setups, yet one works and the other does not. The difference is flow capacity. It's not over yet! Now let's use two wires that are the same diameter and length, and connect them to two batteries, one a flashlight battery and the other a battery with a huge reserve, or a car battery. Obviously, the small battery cannot deliver enough electricity to start the engine. Vacs are very similar. A Festool (great vac) has tremendous suction, and can forceably move 120 CFM through a typical vacuum hose. A Delta Central vacuum might have the capacity to move 1200 CFM through a 4" duct, but little airflow will be detected at the end of a 4"-2" reducer. For my dust collection setups, I like vacs that produce about 60" of lift, and can move a bout 150 CFM through a 2" hose. It's the perfect balance for most cyclones. Cheers!
You are aware that there are larger cyclones designed for use with high volume low pressure collectors right?
If I try to make a diy system both In and out put hose should be the same size ? Thoughts please thank you
Well said, you explained it very good, now I understand a lot more than what I did a few minutes ago. You have given me direction in setting up my system. Thank you very much. I love your video and explanation, you have turned me into a follower of yours.
You're very welcome. I'm glad it helped! there is so much mis-information around. And welcome to the channel :)
