Please help me understand how to connect my Dust collector to my VFD

[moosaes (Moosa)]

I am trying to turn on the my dust collector (clearVue Cyclone) when the VFD turns the spindle on. (and while im at it a EStop might be a nice add on, Estop for the VFD)
Im read some of the threads about it:

Dust Collection Wiring with Spindle & IoT Power Strip

Hey Jim, but this “solution”, to power the dust collection in both states, would mean that the dust collector is always on, regardless of how the relay is switched. That makes no sense. Also what we talked about was something different: To trigger the control input of the IoT relay. The question was whether the outputs T1A, T1B and T1C on your VFD are real relays or just SSRs. Did you ask this? If the first is the case, you can connect these outputs directly to the IoT relay control input and …

Both dust collection auto on/off (wood) and air blast auto on/off (alum/plastic)

Thanks @Aiph5u . Yes, I do remember well. I understood a good part of it, but not 100% I see. I had hoped to keep pin 11 for the possibility of EDM function in a safety relay (which I haven’t set up yet). I also remember that the AL relay output was a solid state relay, but not that it couldn’t trigger a larger relay or contactor of some sort to handle the dust collector amps. Thanks for the reminder. Maybe the alarm relay output could handle the water pump which is very low wattage? And the du…

Best way to e-stop spindle and VFD?

Hey Martin, yes, as explained above: yes, but only to what it’s rated, not more (see excerpt of manual shown above), and also only if the load fulfils the needs of a solid-state relay, i.e. a load that constantly draws the required minimum load current when on. As the specified maximum currents for the AL{0..2} terminals are not that high (a professional dust extraction system would draw much more current), their use is somewhat limited. That’s why I said above: And just in case you sh…

But I don’t really understand it, i think their situation is a bit different than mine.
The thing is my duct collector currently turns on using a remote control. like this:

Remote Control and Receiver Unit - Ameritac - Clear Vue Cyclones

So no idea how I can have the VFD turn it on (my dust collector is the other side of the shop, away from CNC)
Note: Dust collector is 220 is that makes a difference.

Get a hold of I Vac Switch company, they have a good solution for what you are trying to do.
