WARNING
This machine is only intended for extraction of dry material.
WARNING
When using electrical devices, basic safety instructions must be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or personal injury.
WARNING
If incorrect or non-OEM parts are used (especially filters, hoses and plastic bags), the machine can leak hazardous dust which may result in personal injury.
Environmental protection
- Packaging materials can be recycled. Do not dispose of the packaging in household waste. Instead it should be returned for recycling. Discarded units contain recyclable materials that should be recycled. Batteries, oil and similar items must not get into the environment. Dispose of scrapped units in an appropriate recycling system.
- Discarded units contain recyclable material that should be recycled. Batteries, oil and similar substances must not be released into the environment. Hand over scrapped units to a suitable recycling system.
- Discarded filters contain recyclable material that should be recycled. Transfer used filters to a suitable recycling system.
For more information, please contact your nearest recycling center.
Work area environment
Do not expose the machine to moisture. Do not use it in damp or wet areas or close to flammable liquids or gases.
CAUTION
This machine must only be used and stored in a dry environment.
CAUTION
Do not rinse the machine with water.
Overload
Never let the machine work fully throttled, as this poses a risk of overheating.
Bodily injuries
CAUTION
Never try to change electrical connections yourself. An error can be fatal!
Never allow the extraction point to make contact with any part of the body. The strong negative pressure can damage blood vessels in the skin.
WARNING
When installing, handling, and transporting the machine, protective gloves must be worn to prevent personal injury from sharp edges.
Power cord
- Never pull the machine by the power cord. Keep the power cord away from heat and sharp objects. Regularly inspect the power cord.
- If using an extension cord, it must be waterproof.
- The machine must not be used if the power cords or contacts are damaged.
- If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by Dustcontrol or a Dustcontrol authorized service center.
Important safety precaution
The machine must only be used if all filters are intact and fitted properly.
Care and maintenance
Keep the machine clean and free from dust deposits. Ensure that the suction hose and all seals are intact and undamaged. Keep the carrying handles dry and free from oil and grease.
Inspection
Regularly check the device for damage and wear. Any damage must be rectified by a Dustcontrol authorized service center.
Lifting
When lifting the machine, there is a risk of personal injury and damage to the machine or environment. Always define the risk area when lifting. The safest option is lifting the machine piece by piece. If the machine is lifted whole, ensure that the hooks are closed and secured during lifting. The machine’s cyclone, the discharge system and filter must be emptied and cleaned before lifting.
Functional description
The dust extractor uses negative pressure (suction) to force the air through a suction cover/nozzle, hose system, pre-separator and dust separator. Coarse separation is carried out in the machine’s cyclone, providing very effective separation of any coarse dust. Fine dust is separated in the units filter. Reverse-pulse filter cleaning ensures extended filter life. The machine is fitted with a HEPA filter.
- The dust extractor is durable and reliable. It is particularly well suited to the suction and removal of dry, harmful, non-combustible dust in filter class H.
- DC Tromb Twin is powered by two single-phase two-stage fans.
- DC Tromb Twin is equipped with a pre-separator, which collects coarser dust. Finer dust is collected in the second cyclone with filter.
The dust extractor has the following discharge options
- c – Plastic bag: The extracted and separated material is collected in a plastic bag that can be detached in one simple operation. The material can easily be recycled or disposed of.
- a – Container: A cylindrical container for collection of separated material.
- L – Longopac: The machine is equipped with a flexible bag system, in which the dust is collected in a closed system.
The pre-separator has the following discharge options
- c – Plastic bag: The extracted and separated material is collected in a plastic bag that can be detached in one simple operation. The material can easily be recycled or disposed of.
- L – Longopac: The machine is equipped with a flexible bag system, in which the dust is collected in a closed system.

Operation
Connection
Connect the machine to an electrical outlet with a voltage as per the machine’s rating plate specifications.
Filter cleaning
The machine has a filter status indicator that lights up when the filter needs to be cleaned or replaced. The filters must be cleaned 1-2 times a day with continuous use and when the manometer needle is in the red field.
The filters should be cleaned when the manometer is in the red field.
- Keep the machine switched on and close the throttle at the cyclone inlet. Reset the filter cleaner button.
- Wait for 5-10 pulses.
- Open the throttle at the cyclone inlet and reset the filter cleaner button.
- Check that the pressure gauge indicates green or that the filter indication lamp is off. If not, repeat the procedure. If the gauge indicates red or the light is on even after repetition, the fine filter needs to be replaced. If it, despite the filter change, still indicates red, the vacuum valve must be checked.
Emptying
a – Container
The container underneath the cyclone should be emptied when about 2/3 full.
c – Plastic bag
You must clean the filters before replacing the plastic bag. It should be replaced when the dust level is about 5 cm below the discharge flap.
L – Longopac
Close the bag using the supplied cable ties when you believe that it has been filled to a suitable level. Another cable tie is used a little further up. This forms the bottom of the next bag. The filled bag is then cut off, and the machine is ready to be used again.
Changing the bag magazine
- Rotate the holder to the position in which it can be pulled down.
- Insert a bag magazine into the holder and refit it.
- Cut the four tapes that hold the bag magazine together and pull the inner end of the bag upwards over the rubber strip. Then secure the bag with the strap. Pull the outer end over the holder, and tie a cable tie in place as a bottom closure.
Service/Maintenance
Cleaning
The machine must be switched off and unplugged before cleaning and maintenance.
Filter replacement
The fine filter must be replaced at least once a year. Only original filters may be used. HEPA filters must be replaced after 300 hours.
WARNING
Filter replacement may only be performed by trained personnel. Use a protective mask and suitable equipment.
Release and lift off the upper part for free access to the filter. Lift the filter straight up. If appropriate, fit a plastic bag over the cyclone to prevent the dust in the filter from spreading. Check the gasket when replacing the filter. A worn gasket can allow hazardous dust to escape. Never use old gaskets or non-OEM parts. Place used filters in a plastic bag and seal the bag. See instructions below.
Motor
The typical service life of a fan motor’s original brushes is 600-700 hours. The brush can be replaced. The service life of the second brush set is approx. 400 hours, while that of the third set is approx. 300 hours. After this time, the motor is considered worn out and should be replaced.
Overheating
If the machine is at risk of overheating (for example, as a result of powerful throttling), the temperature guard will trip and the machine will stop. The operator must then press the power switch to the OFF position, unplug from the mains and wait 3-5 minutes for the machine to cool down. Then reset the temperature guard by pressing the RESET button. Reconnect the power cord to the electrical outlet and restart the machine by pressing the power switch to the ON position.
Regular checks
Regularly check the power cord for damage.
The machine must be tested and inspected at least once a year due to its use with hazardous materials. Worn parts must be replaced. Never risk functionality and service life. Only use genuine parts.
Consumables
For spare parts, see the Dustcontrol website.
Warranty
The warranty period is two years and covers manufacturing defects. The warranty is valid on condition that the machine is used in the normal way and receives the required service. Normal wear and tear is not covered. Repairs must be carried out by Dustcontrol or personnel authorized by Dustcontrol. Otherwise, the warranty is void.
