Thanks - guess I'll move past the testing stage and onto actual usage.

Thien Cyclone Separator Lid Discussion / New guy questions
July 06, 2013, 09:16:34 PM
Hi guys - my first post here but I've followed for a while.
I just finished my first separator and began testing. It's a non-top-hat version on a HF collector on a 30 gallon Brute can. After plugging leaks and adjusting the inlet and outlet fittings I'm getting 90%-95% collection in the Brute. I'd like more but I plan to eventually vent outside so if that is as good as it gets, I can live with it.
I noticed after adjustments that I have no chips or dust at all on the baffle. It's clean as a whistle.
My questions is - Is the baffle so clean because I have is set up properly, or is it clean because any dust is being pulled into the bag as part of the uncollected amounts?
All help appreciated.
Terry
