Baileigh Metal Dust Collectors FAQs

How much CFM do I need for a metal dust collector?

It depends on how many stations you're running and how much grinding or abrasive work you do. A single-machine shop can often run on the MDC-1800-1.0, while multi-station shops usually need the higher CFM of the MDC-3500-HD.

What's the difference between the MDC-1200-HD and MDC-3500-HD?

The MDC-1200-HD runs on 110V with a 1.5 HP motor for single-station work. The MDC-3500-HD runs on 220V three-phase with a 5 HP motor built for several stations at once.

Can I connect more than one machine to a Baileigh dust collector?

Yes. The MDC-1800-1.0 has three inlet ports built for connecting multiple machines at the same time without losing suction.

Do these dust collectors handle sparks from grinding?

Yes. All three models use fire-resistant filter media rated for metalworking dust, and the heavy duty models add Teflon-coated HEPA-standard cartridges for added protection against hot particles.
