Note: When calculating static pressure loss to determine
if multiple lines can be left open at the same time,
only include the main line numbers once.
5. Compare the total static pressure loss for that line
to the closest CFM given in the
Performance Curve
section on the
Machine Data Sheet for your dust
collector on
Page 4.
Example: The Model W1816 Data Sheet
Performance Curve is illustrated in Figure 49.
Find 4.4 on the Static Pressure axis (the amount of
total static pressure loss calculated in
Figure 48),
then refer to the closest value on the CFM axis—
approximately 1380 CFM.
The 1380 CFM for the static pressure loss of the line
connected to the router table is well above the 220
CFM requirement of that machine.
— If the CFM for your static pressure loss is above
the requirement of the machine connected to the
end of that branch line, then dust collection will
most likely be successful. Congratulations! You've
just designed your own dust system.
— If the CFM for your static pressure loss is below
the requirement of the machine, then that line
will not effectively collect the dust. You must then
modify some of the factors in that line to reduce
the static pressure loss. Some of the ways to do
this include: 1) Installing larger duct, 2) reducing
amount of flexible duct used, 3) increasing
machine dust port size, 4) moving machine closer
to dust collector to eliminate duct length, and 5)
reducing 90˚ elbows or replacing them with 45˚

The airflow test probe is located 1.5 x
duct diamter upstream from the air
inlet. Test pipe length is a minimum of
10 x duct diameter.
