Description

For craftsmen who work with large volumes of dust and debris, the CT Cyclone pre-separator is the simplest answer for increasing the efficiency of your CT dust extractor and minimizing its lifetime cost of ownership ? all within a compact solution that fits seamlessly into the Festool mobility system. Compliant with osha?s Table 1 when used with a Certified CT dust extractor, the CT Cyclone is an Anti-Static three-step Filtration system that separates and collects large debris and coarse dust before it reaches the Mobile dust extractor ? decreasing the number of filters and dust bags that you?ll need to purchase to keep your CT running smoothly. Additionally, the CT Cyclone reduces the overall dust load on the main filter and ensures consistently high suction power throughout the work process. Compatible with all CT dust extractors, it is a highly portable and compact Cyclone solution that can be easily transported to wherever your work takes you.Robust design for long service life

  • Works as expected and meets Festool performance and quality.
Style: Single
First of all I’m a Festool Fanatic and I am a professional cabinet maker, so this was an answer to a problem I had in my shop. My shop vacuum is set up as a tool caddy, with the boom arm hose and a moving work station. Whenever my vacuum bag was full I had to disassemble my unit to retrieve the bag and replace or empty the bags (I set up a way to suck the dust out with my large delta 4” vacuum to save money on bags) So when I caw this product I was excited but the reviews were mixed as to performance. To be honest, when I first installed it I was concerned that the suction was reduced quite a bit from a straight hose connection, but decided to give is a trial run with my current project. After cutting several sheets of plywood and solids, I was surprised at how well my saws and sanders worked collecting the dust. I saw no loss of suction efficiency in my tools, and the CT Cyclone bin filled up and I dumped it not having to get to the bag. I have not used my router or domino yet, but I’m sure it will continue to perform well. I will give an update later if it does not. So far so good with my first experience. ... show more

  • Great dust seperator
Style: Single
It fits perfectly inside my workcenter and paired up to my ct-26, it very effectively seperates almost everything from the air stream. I have not had to change a bag since i installed this, and there has been no loss in suction. Expensive, (duh, festool) but worth it.

  • Great system
Style: Single
I bought this with the CT 26 vac system all at once, I cannot possibly tell you how pleased I am with this system. It does a superb job at separating the wood chips and dust from the filter bag. I know it seems like a lot to invest but you won't regret it at all. The shipping was very fast and the product arrived in perfect condition from the vendor. ... show more

  • Festool 204083 CT CYCLONE Dust Separator CT-VA-20
Style: Single
What can I say, it's Festool. Expensive but worth it if you're into that sort of thing. Fits well on my CT-26

  • Must Have for Festool vacs
Style: Single
I had about three cyclone systems and always had trouble with buckets breaking. Has this unit for a while now with no problems. Love how it fits on the Festool vac and I can attach another sustainer for sandpaper

  • Cost a lot. But couldn’t go without it now that I have one
Style: Single
Way overpriced as you already now. However let’s get down to it. I have this on my CT MIDI. Yes it fits it like a glove. You do loose some suction but it’s not a shop vac. It’s a dust extractor. If you want to suck the paint off a car use your shop vac. If you want to catch fine dust and medium chips but don’t want to blow through vac bags then this is a great pair to your festool vac. I use the extractor with my midi no matter what I’m doing. I use it with the track saw. Table saw everything and anything. Big chips are a waste of time. Sanding and cutting with a track saw or miter saw this is my go to set up. I will note that the cyclone parts are friction fit and uses the sustainer lid to hold them in place. It’s really easy to get the parts Misaligned and you will notice a dramatic drop in auction when they are not seated correctly. You will notice some loss in auction but still plenty of power to catch sanding dust and chips. Also a standard shop vac hose will plug right into this thing. ... show more

  • Over priced, but convenient to use and does the job well
Style: Single
Surprisingly, the VA-20 does not fully use the new T-LOC system and you have to use the cheesy outside latches that are not as secure. Being new to woodworking I am not heavily invested in other dust separation systems, so the high price was not as painful to swallow. There is a slight loss of suction with the unit attached that leaves a tiny bit of extra sawdust but acceptable. The actual CT vacuum bag has remained spotless so far. Also, being stacked on top of the vacuum allows the whole dust extraction system to be moved around my make-shift workshop. So I would still choose it over any other system for my part-time workshop. Tried the Oneida system but was disappointed by their poor quality control. The DD was missing an elbow, the DD Ultimate had damage out of the box, it attaches poorly on the CT vacuum and way too cheesy for a $300 product. Additionally, I couldn't get the correct adapters for it. So it just didn't work out for me. They do have fantastic customer service. ... show more

  • It’s a Festool
Style: Single
As with all Festool products, this is a well thought out tools that just works so well. It’s hooked up to my CT36 AC and captures probably 95% or more of the sawdust my saws spit out, drastically reducing time spent emptying bags or tossing out reusable bags for those that don’t use a lifetime bag. Just like all things Festool, I put this purchase off for a long time because of cost, but as soon as I bought it I wish I just sacked up and bought it years ago. ... show more
