Overview

High Vacuum Pressure Dust Control for Industrial CNC Cutting Tools

Primarily designed for CNC applications, this High-Vacuum dust collection system uses Oneida Air Systems' patented SMART Boost® technology to provide roughly twice the static pressure of standard dust collectors and pull maximum CFM at the cutter head. This increased suction performance means higher quality cuts, increased cutter life and less clean up.

Traditional dust collector fan motors operate at a fixed speed (RPM). When long ducting runs, smaller tool ports, and even closed gates limit the volume of air (CFM) the fan can move at its fixed speed, the motor ends up doing less work – and draws fewer amps. Our unique SMART Boost technology ensures the motor is always working at full capacity (with a constant amp draw) by increasing fan speed as needed to deliver maximum CFM and maximum suction at all times – up to double the CFM and suction of traditional, fixed RPM dust collectors. It’s truly revolutionary!

This high pressure system is ideal for use with any type of CNC cutting tools as well as saws, jointers, lathes, shapers, planers, routers, sanders, and more!

5HP SMART High Vacuum Fan Performance Curve — OAS uses Actual CFM Ratings that reflect real-world airflow performance.

Continuously High Airflow Performance

Our patented SMART Boost technology directly measures resistance placed on the fan motor and automatically increases the fan's speed to compensate when suction is low, ensuring that the motor always works at peak performance levels! This can double your airflow through smaller or mixed ports - perfect for CNC machines!

High Quality & Serviceable Filtration

This system uses spunbond polyester cartridge filters that are specifically designed for dust collection applications - providing unbeatable airflow and filtration performance - and are proudly made in the USA!

OAS fully stands by the quality and performance of our filters; each filter is sent to an accredited independent testing lab. Contact us for more information and documentation.
Wide-spaced pleating and non-stick PTFE membrane coating facilitates quick and easy maintenance.
Patented filter stacking system provides the filtration area of a single larger filter, but without the cumbersome weight and install, and provides additional savings when replacements are required.
Patented internal acoustic foam reduces noise caused by vibrating outgoing air by 1–2 dBa
Fine dust pan captures residual dust that falls off the inside of the filter. Can be removed easily for cleaning after reverse blowing compressed air into the pleats.

Compact, Configurable Design

With its compact footprint, the 5HP High-Vacuum system can be configured to work easily into most ductwork setups. Designed for larger shops running multiple tools, this system can also be outfitted with different support systems and dust container configurations (e.g. splitter kit, hoppers, airlocks, etc.) - Call for details.

FAQ

How often should I clean the dust collector's cartridge filter?

This can vary widely depending on how often your dust collector is used and what kind of dusts it's exposed to but you should typically clean it only once you've noticed a considerable drop in suction performance. In our experience this can be around once per year, but with heavy amounts of sanding it could be as often as once per month. A meter such as our Filter Efficiency Gauge can also be used to monitor pressure buildup and inform you when the filter needs to be cleaned.

What do I need to know about NFPA regulations?

Fire protection regulations are a complex and ever-changing set of rules that differ from facility to facility. However, all of Oneida Air Systems' dust collector are NFPA Compliance Ready and we provide best practices and guidance for assisting customers - read our NFPA Reference Guide for more information.

Is this product compatible with Quick-Clamp Duct?

Yes but you will first need to install a Machine Adapter into the dust collector's inlet. These adapters are smaller on the raw end than traditional ducting so that they can slip into the ports on systems and tools i.e. a 5" Quick-Clamp Duct Machine Adapter will measure ~4.9" O.D. on the raw end.

Can I vent my system outside?

If you have conditioned air in your shop (heated or cooled), then exhausting outside can be costly. If your building is small and well-sealed, you can interfere with flue exhausts as well. Close neighbors might object. If the Dust Collection system is run intermittently it is generally not a problem. Most buildings have enough leaks and crevices where the aforementioned volume of air does not cause problems. If you have a problem opening or closing an outside door when the DC is running, crack a window slightly. The rule of thumb is for every 500 CFM have at least 1 sq/ft of return air coming back into the shop. A lot of our customers blow exhaust air outside successfully.

What dust can be collected with your collector?

Oneida Air Systems' dust collectors are designed and tested for wood and wood dust. They can and have been used effectively for various other debris, including drywall dust, paper dust, agricultural dust, and metal chips. Please note that some common materials when cut, ground or processed by machinery may become highly toxic, flammable, or deflagrable and explosive. Customers must ensure that their particular use of a dust collection system is in accordance with national, state, local, NFPA, OSHA and all other applicable codes.

Can this be used for wet applications as well?

No. This system is designed for use collecting dry materials only.

How do I troubleshoot an air leak with my cyclone?

Even a small leak can significantly affect the overall separation performance of the cyclone. If you can't audibly pinpoint where the leak might be coming from, one of the simplest ways to check for air leaks is with a smoke test. Click "Read More" for further instructions and tips.

What are the dimensions for this product?

General system dimensions are shown in the Specifications tab on each product page. More detailed information can be found in the product's Owner's Manual, located under the Documents tab.

Why does the bin level indicator flash when the bin is empty?

Because the Dust Sentry works via an adjustable infrared sensor, it can sometimes show false positives with an empty container because of the reflective surface at the bottom of the steel drum. This issue will go away soon after the system is used; once the bottom of the drum has sawdust on it, the Dust Sentry should no longer give a false positive. It can also be resolved by painting/coloring the inside bottom of the drum so that it is no longer reflective enough to affect the sensor.

How do I adjust the bin level sensor?

Adjust the detection of the dust level of the infrared sensor by rotating the Level Set Screw. Turning it towards the plus sign (+) will lengthen the range of the sensor; turning it towards the minus sign (-) will shorten the sensor’s range. DO NOT force the level set screw.

What's the recommended range I should set the bin level sensor at?

We recommend that the sensor be set to alert at a distance of 4-6". To test the range, place your hand in front of the sensor, while the Dust Sentry is plugged in, to represent the dust drum filling up.

Why does my SMART system run after I shut it off?

The SMART system has a cooling fan on the VFD that runs after the system is shut off. Depending on how long the system has been on or if the outside temperature is hotter than normal, it may run for a longer time to cool the motor down. This is a normal function of the system, and it will stop automatically.

Can Dust Sentry Panel be mounted outside in weather?

No, there is electrical components inside and if it got wet there is a potential it would short circuit.

Can I lengthen the Bin Level Sensor power cord?

The 8' power cord can be extended to any length using wire of the same gauge or higher.
