I suggest we do the following: | I suggest we do the following: | ||
# Replace the two filters in the Clearvue cyclone filter stack. $165 each from Wynn. | |||
# Enclose the collector rack with an acoustic barrier. Add a muffler to the exhaust. | |||
# Automate the blast gates. When a machine is turned on, the blast gate (valve in the duct) will open and stay open for a few seconds. | |||
# Replace the fine dust bin below the filter stack with a wood bin tall enough to support the stack without the orange bucket. The goals are to add dust holding capacity and support the stack more securely. | |||
# Add more equipment to the collection system. The new bandsaw, jointer, router table and sanders should be added. | |||
# Add more dust collection capacity. The Clearvue system can support 2 or sometimes 3 simultaneously running machines. When the shop is busy, we exceed this. | |||
# Add overhead dust collection to the sawstop. This was in the original dust collection vote, but we didn't get it due to a long lead time on the part. http://www.thesharkguard.com/sharkdc.php | |||
# Flow sensor to the duct and pressure sensors before and after the cyclone. | |||
# Bin level sensors for the cyclone bin and the filter stack bin. | |||
# Enclose the filter stack so we can apply a burst of pressure to clean the filter. | |||
# Better filter/small cyclone for the Jet dust collector. | |||
