Adding the SDD and going to a 5" main actually increased performance.

It's a Laguna and the motor is rated at 12 amps at 240V. The input port on the Laguna is 6". I don't know the impeller size but you can look up the Laguna. It's a permanent installation with S&D 6" pipe running to the tools. Most are stepped down to 4" to match the port on the tool. I put the SSD XL in front of the Laguna because the Laguna cyclone was miserable and too much swarf and fines wound up in the filter. The SDD XL made a significant improvement in swarf and fines capture.
By "works fine" I mean that it collects swarf off my tools in an acceptable manner. Don't know what else to say.

Go into the world and do well. But more importantly, go into the world and do good.
