POWERMATIC PM1900 Dust Collector
The POWERMATIC
PM1900 is designed with the
power to work with planers,
wide belt sanders and most
woodworking machines. Its
powerful dust-evacuating
suction, effective filtering,
multiple connection and
large collection capacity
make the POWERMATIC
PM1900 a capable central
dust collection system for the
whole shop. Plus, it packs
those capabilities into a
durable, space-saving
package that accommodates
virtually any shop size and
needs.
The POWERMATIC
PM1900 is shipped as a bare
machine without filter elements or catch bags allowing the buyer to “design” the system they
want. The fabric filter and catch bag sets as well as the pleated canister filters with five plastic
catch bags are sold as individual kits. This allows the purchaser to save money by getting the
POWERMATIC PM1900 with the filter style wanted without paying for and then discarding an
unused “standard” filter and bag sets.
The POWERMATIC DC1900 is essentially the same machine but can be equipped
with the fabric style bags (left) or the canister kit. (right) The difference in height
between the bag and canister setups can be important in some shop environments with
low ceilings or other height restrictions.
Filtering Efficiency

in length. Upright hooks are included to
support the bags when the POWERMATIC PM1900 is not running. Spring steel band clamps
secure the filter bags to the twin collector housings. The fabric collector bags use spring retaining
rings sewn into their upper edges that fit into a groove in the collector housings making
installation and removal tool free. Many manufacturers use an outside band for securing
collection bags that can be very difficult to work with, especially when done alone.
The bag type elements filters out 96% of 30 micron particles.

long. The canisters mount directly to the collector
housings and seal with factory installed foam gaskets within the canister flanges. Four finger-
operated knobs lock each canister to the collector housings. Despite the canisters compact overall
size, its pleated filter element has six times the filtering surface area of the fabric bag type.
"Loading the manual" means you need to wait until the file loads and becomes available for online reading. Some manuals are very large, and the time they take to appear depends on your internet speed.
Summary
The canisters filter 86% of 1 micron particles and 98% of 2 micron particles. To maintain that efficiency, a top-mounted handle operates a pair of “hands” within the canister. When turned the hands wipe across the interior filter pleats, flexing them to knock off excessive dust buildup but leaving t...
time. Eliminating those trips back and forth between a machine and dust collector can increase safety in the shop as well. Our remote control also has a timer function that allows programming in a specific amount of run time between 1 and 99 minutes. When activated, the timer function allows the POW...
housings with a curved, smooth-walled sheet metal chute. The ends of the chute have flange-type connections with gaskets that help prevent even small leaks. This chute has a larger inside area than a hose initially, and then tapers down slightly as it splits and then runs to the collector housings. ...
