No info available yet on the site. I do know it is 5hp with a 16" impeller. So now people can get the Pentz design without the kit aspects if they want.
Edit I originally wrote 18" but is it 16"...

I wonder if there are any dimensional changes to the cyclone compared to the plastic ones? Have to wait and see.
18" impeller! Wow. I would think that 5hp wouldn't be enough for that given my 16" requires pretty close to 5hp.
Cheers, Dom
55 oil drum at least?
April Wilkenson just had it installed in her shop...YouTube video is up. It appears to be a substantial unit. I don't like her install, however, with flex through her walls.
Cute name though it took me a bit to catch on.
I agree about the ducting and the flex hose. That's what happens when someone doesn't do their homework. I was also surprised to see the the use of the black electrical cord in and out of the wall. I thought that was a no no. One of the reasons I don't normally watch Youtube stuff.
Why would she ignore the advise from them, she probably has to do a video or 2 for them to provide the unit and have them install.
10hp driving my 18.5 Impeller on the G0638. That motor and starter box has a two stage timed start circuit.
I saw her video and was going to mention the 5% discount if you gave the code "wilkerdos". I noticed the flex through the wall too, but was more concerned with the wyes turned down on the main run, a catch all for off cuts. Although with 5 hp, it may not really be an issue. They could have located the unit 5 feet down the wall and run a straight section of steel into the inlet, even leaving the flex in place would have been a big improvement. I would have put the main run about 3-4' off the wall, turned the wyes to the wall and put an ell to turn them down.
Good point on the wyes, Ole.
