DELTA 50-875 3-Speed Air Filtration System with Remote Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I picked up my unit before I read the negative reviews in the pages here. All I can say is, good thing I did not read them, because I may of not purchased my unit. I picked up my unit and then read the reviews. As soon as I did that I rushed to the workshop to check out the unit. I was not planning to hook it up right now since I did not have a wood project that I was in the middle of, but after reading the two negative reviews I opened the box at once and fired up the unit. All I can say is this thing is GREAT, I have a JDS unit that is a few years old. I liked it SO MUCH that I went out and purchased this Delta unit. The lowest setting on this Delta moves more air then my old JDS unit. I used to hate doing a lot of wood working in the winter because of all the dust in the air I create. I had to leave my old unit run for days after I finished using the table saw. Not anymore, It clears the are in about 15 minutes after cutting MDF. I have a dust collector on the saw but dust still passes the 30 micron filter bag. I have finished one project in the past 2 weeks and have started 2 more. This unit has made woodworking fun again.
Some of the cool things that I have found with the unit are the following
It has an electrostatic filter that I can clean and not have to replace.
The unit has an auto shutoff from 1/2 hour to 7 1/2 hours in 1/2 increments, The jet I almost bought only does 3 setting 2,4,8 hours.
The fan on low is quieter then my other unit and it moves more air.
It has a dirty air filter indicator to tell me when the filters need to be cleaned.
The only negative thing that I can see in the unit is the dirty filter indicator does not work when the unit is standing on its side. The indicator is designed more to be laying flat or celling mount. But this will not be an issue for long, I plan to pull the JDS down and install the Delta in it's place as soon as I finish the next project.
I guess I will be e-baying my old JDS unit
Anyway, hope this helps, time to go make some saw dust.

JET 708620B AFS-1000B 550/702/1044 CFM 3-Speed Air Filtration System with Remote and Electrostatic Pre-Filter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Like a lot of woodoworkers, I put off buying an air filtration system longer than I should have. It's one of those things that realy should be done BEFORE you begin to set up a shop area. Well, I finally did my research on available machines and decided to buy the Jet. I'm glad I did. It definitely does a terrific job, is relatively quiet, and it mounts easily to the ceiling. The filters are easy to change -- just flip four clips and pull out the filter. The machine is also fairly lightweight, making it easier to mount. The remote control is a great feature, allowing you to turn the machine on and off from a distance, set the "speed" (hi, medium, or low), and set the timer (it has settings for 2, 4, and 6 hours). The timer is a very useful feature, since you can set the machine to run for 2 hours as you're leaving the shop, and you don't have to remember to come back down to turn it off as you do with other machines.
My ultimate test was sanding a large maple table top. I'll describe what it was like doing this before and after I got the Jet system.
BEFORE: My shop measures 30' long by 20' wide. Before I had this machine (when I had no air filtration system at all) whenever I sanded a table top the shop got filled with dust really quickly. Even after I stopped sanding, the dust hung in the air for maybe half an hour. And the next day, I'd come into the shop and see a thin layer of dust settled on everything.
AFTER: Now that I use this machine, the air never gets as dusty as it used to (even in the middle of sanding). Also, within five minutes after I'm done sanding, the air is crystal clear. By leaving the machine on after I'm all done, whatever dust remains is taken care of. The next day, coming into the shop, there is no dust on anything.
* * * * * *
As a final note, I give it four stars because the remote does not allow 360-degree access. But this is a relatively small matter with such a great machine.

Ideal for use in a smaller home shop, the JET 708620B AFS-1000B 550/702/1044 CFM 3-Speed Air Filtration System with Remote and Electrostatic Pre-Filter simply hangs from the ceiling and clears the room of fine dust particles that can compromise air quality in your workspace. This unit can be used with or without a Jet dust collector and comes complete with a remote control, timer, and three-speed capability for powerful performance.
Eye bolts give you the option of hanging this system from the shop ceiling.Two-Filter Process Removes a Range of Micron ParticlesBy quickly and quietly cleaning and filtering 90 percent of all five-micron particles and 80 percent of all one-micron particles, the 708620B ensures a cleaner and healthier shop environment. This system works via a two-filter process: an outer filter removes larger particle while the inner, three-pocket filter traps smaller particles. The end result is less dust and debris compromising air quality in your shop.
Three Speeds and Timer Settings for Efficient FiltrationThe system's three-speed (550, 702, and 1044 CFM) motor gives you the flexibility to choose the most efficient air filtration for your shop. For added convenience, the remote control lets you control all the system's functions while it hangs from a ceiling or is placed high up on a shelf. Built-in timer settings for two, four, and eight hours will shut off automatically at the end of the designated time, cleaning the air in your shop even while you're away.
Ball bearing Motor for Fast, Powerful PerformanceThanks to the fully-enclosed, 1/6 HP, ball-bearing motor with overload protection, the 708620B has the capability of filtering the air in a shop measuring 20 x 20 x 8 feet in less than five minutes. It can also filter the air in that same-size shop over 12 times an hour.
Easy-Care Design for Fast Clean-UpThe 708620B is easy to clean. The electrostatic outer filter withstands several washings, and the inner filter can be blown clean simply with compressed air. For added convenience, this handy machine also features grip handles for portability and rubber feet to prevent marring your work surface.
Durable Construction and Electrostatic Filter for Better PerformanceConstructed of a heavy-duty, powder-coated metal box, and featuring a powerful motor and fan, the 708620B offers exceptional durability for years of use. For reliable performance, it also comes standard with an electrostatic filter that is electronically charged to attract many more dust particles than other standard filters.

About JET: A History of Sharing New, Feature-Rich ProductsOpened in 1958 after the founder of the company, Leslie P. Sussman, took the first Boeing Jet Airplane trip from Seattle, Washington to Japan, JET began as a small dealer that sold air hoists and trolleys out of a single hardware store in Seattle. Over the years, JET has carried everything from snowmobiles, transmitter radios, and forklifts to nylon stockings, but by the early 1970s, metalworking had become the base of their business line. And by the 1980s, JET had expanded into the realm of woodworking. Today, you'll find that JET offers a wide range of popular woodworking tools that are backed with best-in-class features and excellent service.
