(More customer reviews)I had been looking to upgrade my dust collection system with a higher efficiency cartridge (2 micron) for quite some time. I have been putting it off because my Jet Dust Collector is an older model. It is a DC-610 and I could never find an upgrade kit that indicated that it would support my DC-610. I saw this filter on Amazon and started digging into the specifications. Cross referencing it with the dust collection specifications from various Jet web sites, what I found was that my older Jet DC-610 matched the dimensions (14") and horse power (1hp) of the newer DC-650. The newer Jet DC-610 dimensions were smaller than the unit I had. I called product support for the canister filter and they concurred that it should fit. I decided to order it. When it arrived I removed the upper bag and installed the filter on my older dust collector. The filter fit perfectly. The canister filter came with a foam rubber seal already installed in order to assure an air-tight fit. I did need to add some support to the filter side of the dust collector. I then replaced the bottom bag wiht a clear plastic one. I was happy that I finally had finally upgraded to a 2 micron canister filter on my system. I then turned it on. I could not believe the difference in the increased airflow at each dust collection station. I was expecting some difference but not to the degree that I experienced. The March 2008 issue of Wood Magazine has a great article on dust collectors and the efficiencies gained by installing a 2 micron cartridge filter. I am completely satisfied with this purchase and the quality and performance of this filter. It was worth every penny. I just wish I had figured this out sooner.

With the Dust Dog canister, the Jet DC-CS 2-Micron Canister Filter catches dust 15 times smaller than conventional filters.

This canister filter is designed for the 708640 DC-650A dust collector.
