Building your own Wall Mounting Brackets
These brackets are intended for use with single-phase systems only.
If mounting a
three-phase system, the brackets must be welded steel to support the motor weight.
Note:
Wall Mounting Brackets are available for purchase at www.clearvecyclones.com.
1. Cut the bracket components:
15” Blower (CV1800)
16” Blower (CVMAX)
(2) vertical legs from 2” x 4” x 8’
9” long
9” long
(2) horizontal legs from 2” x 4” x 8’
18” long
20” long
(1) bracket back from ¾” plywood
12” x 26”
12” x 26”
(2) bracket sides from ¾” plywood
9” x 19-½”
9” x 21-½”
2. Join the vertical and horizontal legs:
a. Using (2) #12 x 2-¼” or longer screws, join the vertical
(shorter) legs to the horizontal (longer) legs by driving the
screws through the vertical leg into the end grain of the
horizontal leg.
b. Repeat for second bracket.
3. Attach the sides to the bracket:
a. Glue the bracket sides to the “L” bracket. Reinforce
with (10) 1-½” screws.
b. If desired, trim side brackets down to triangular shape.
c. Repeat for second bracket.
4. Mount brackets to the wall:
a. Mount the top of the bracket back 96” above the floor.
If your ceilings are higher than 8’ and you are using a collection drum that is taller than
27”, you will need to increase the mounting height of your brackets accordingly. The
measurement does not need to be exact – a longer length of flex hose can be used
between the base of the cyclone and collection drum to take up any excess height.
b. Attach the bracket back to the wall by driving at least (8) or more #12 x 3” screws
through the bracket into the wall studs.
These screws will be holding the weight of the entire unit, so #12 x 3” or longer
screws are recommended.
5. Attach the assembled bracket sides to the
mounted bracket back using (4) #12 x 2-¼”
screws. The tops and outside edges of the
components should align.
