Triple filter system
14 October 2013
The latest Makita M-class dust extractor can be integrated with many Makita power tools to greatly reduce the health risks of dust extraction in the workplace.

The new Makita VC3211M has a large, stainless steel tank with capacity for 32litres of dry and 27litres of wet material. The 1,050watt motor generates a maximum airflow of 3.5m³/minute and a maximum suction of 22.0kPa. Suction power can be varied by a simple power dial on the control panel.
A new automatic self-cleaning filter system includes twin three-stage filters comprising pre-filter, damper and powder filter. Reverse air-flow is used to clean the filters in turn so that at least one filter is always in operation.
