So, like many, I have the 2HP Harbor Freight Dust collector, upgraded to a Wynn 35A filter. I am looking to get more airflow out of the DC and am wondering about an impeller and output upgrade, and have some questions...
#1. The Rikon P60-200-22 impeller seems to be the recommended replacement, but it appears to no longer be available. Can anyone recommend an alternative or potentially a source for this impeller on the used / part out market?
#2. Lots of folks seem to upgrade the intake port on the impeler housing to 6" using a 6" sheet metal flange. Easy enough, but the output is still necked down to 5" isn't it? What can I do to upgrade the output from the impeller and the separator ring to 6"
My thought process here is to go with 6" mains, and keep my 4" branches / blast gates.
So what's your thoughts? Anyone know how to source this up? What is a good source for 6" DWV pipe and fittings? I'd rather not go with metal pipe as it is too easy to damage in the shop environment.
