F.A.Q.
What dust can be collected?
Oneida Air Systems’ dust collectors are designed and tested for wood and wood dust. They can and have been
used effectively for various other dusts and chips, such as drywall dust, paper dust, agricultural dust, metal chips
and other forms of debris. The customer is, however, cautioned that some common materials when cut, ground
or processed by machinery may become very dangerous: highly toxic, flammable, or deflagrable and explosive.
The user must ensure that the dust collection system is used in accordance with national, state, local, NFPA,
OSHA and all other applicable codes.
Can this be used for wet applications as well?
No. This system is designed for use collecting dry materials only.
What is a static dissipative material?
This term refers to the range of conductivity that a material has. Static dissipative materials range from 106-1012
Ohms.
How often should I clean the dust collector's cartridge filter?
This can vary widely depending on how often your dust collector is used and what kind of dusts it's exposed to,
but you should typically clean it only once you've noticed a considerable drop in suction performance. In our
experience this can be around once per year, but with heavy amounts of sanding it could be as often as once per
month.
When should I replace this filter?
With regular maintenance, our cartridge filters can easily last up to 5 years. Your filter should only be replaced if
thorough cleanings do not help to restore your suction performance.
How do I clean this filter?
Clean this filter using compressed air blown from the outside of the filter. For further instructions see the
Maintenance Section.
How do I troubleshoot an air leak with my cyclone?
Even a small leak can significantly affect the overall separation performance of the cyclone. If you can't audibly
pinpoint where the leak might be coming from, one of the simplest ways to check for air leaks is with a smoke
test.
