Hi,
I recently picked up a used 1.5hp Delta 50-760 dust collector. I plan on adding a super dust deputy and a canister filter instead the stock dust poof bag. 2 questions:
My question is for the mounting of filter. Can I mount the filter so it’s pointed “down” instead of up? I have height issues in my basement so I don’t want to mount above the impeller housing (where the current bag filter is). I’ll figure out a way to cap the top and the have some kind of clean out below the filter (bag/bucket?). Most cyclones systems seem to have the filter mounted this way so I assume it’s not an issue. Any model suggestions? The inside diameter is ~15 5/8”.
As per my previous thread regarding duct sizes. Suggestions were to use 6” as much as I could but the SDD as well as the impeller only have 5” inlets. So I’ll have 5” to 6” reducer to the top of the SDD and then running about 8’ flex out of the SDD 5” inlet to the tool (moved around tool to tool). Does 6” still make sense here - 5” SDD inlet —> 6” flex —> reduced to 4” tool connection?
