Corrimal Mens Shed turn the cyclone on when they arrive and turn it off when they leave 8 hours later so it runs continuously all day. I was going to copy their system until we worked out that using a VFD we can use two wires and a switch which is far more simple. The ramp up and ramp down time can be custom programmed and the one I installed the other day can be controlled from the bast gates, remote control, VFD or an isolation switch, all with a couple of wires and no additional electronics. We have found that VFD's simplify things to a huge extent on the control side and make running the DE far more flexible. I for one would never willingly install a system without one now.
