I run a 2HP Grizzly with an old Oneida cyclone and an add-on canister filter. I still get some build up on my filter which I attribute to agitation of the dust in the bag below the filter tree. Has anyone tried a Thien in combination with a cyclone?
thanks

I had a previous installation where the cyclone was tucked in the corner and was a nuisance mover things to get to it to empty... Using the Separator ahead of it allowed me to keep the waste near the machines and more convenient access for dumping.
There was a trade-off in drawing 'through' the separators - they presented a small but noticeable load on the cyclone system. But since the system only had a tiny fraction of the waste (and it was only the remaining fines), it seemed to work better - but we never tested/measured performance.
Hope this helps!
