Hey all! I’m upgrading my dust collection system. I have an older 2hp grizzley which has a 5” inlet and outlets. I’ve sized my main duct at 6” and will have a few branches at 4” to my main tools. This is nothing fancy. I’m also planning to have a separator bin and in lieu of the bag and filter and I’m planning to exhaust the dust collection directly out of my shop.
My question is, with 5” ports on the vac, do I need 5” connections on my separator bin? They don’t seem to be too commonly available on the interwebs. Also, should I run 6” from the bin to the main duct (roughly 6’)? How are others doing it? Thanks!
