Key Features
Overview
The Laguna DC:15 dust collector (model MDC1500) is a 1.5 horsepower dust collector designed for small to mid-sized woodworking shops. It pulls chips and fine dust off your machines before they end up in your lungs or on your floor, and it does it without the footprint or price of a full-size cyclone system.
Laguna rates the DC:15 at 1100 CFM (cubic feet per minute) of maximum airflow, measured at the 4-inch port. The 1.5 horsepower motor runs on 120 or 240 volt power at 60 hertz, with a rated draw of 11.5 amps on 120 volts and 5.7 amps on 240 volts. It ships prewired for 120 volts, so it plugs into a standard shop outlet without any rewiring.
Filtration is handled by a 2 micron filter with a 98% efficiency rating at 2 micron. A manual dual filter paddle lets you knock buildup off the filter by hand, which helps keep airflow up between emptyings.
Dust collects in a 35 gallon drum, with a collection bag capacity of 5.3 cubic feet. Dual 4-inch dust ports on a Y-fitting let you serve two machines or two hoses from one unit, and built-in wheels let you roll it to wherever the work is.
At 41 inches long, 20 inches wide and 67 inches tall, and 127 pounds net weight (144 pounds shipping weight), it is a manageable size for a one-car garage shop or a dedicated woodworking room. It is a good fit for hobbyists and small professional shops that want real dust collection for table saws, planers, jointers and sanders.
