Hi All, just wondering if anyone has tried a thein separator on a bin that's not round, say a rubbermaid tub for instance and if so how it worked.

Thien Cyclone Separator Lid Discussion / Is the 90 deg. inlet for convenience, or does it serve a purpose?

Hi All
I'm pretty new to dust collection so I've been reading all the "Tips" I can find and one that keeps coming up is to stay away from 90 degree elbows as they create friction and turbulence.
So, is the 90 degree inlet elbow serving a purpose, or is it just the easiest way to rig the inlet and get the airflow pointing the right direction? would a 45 deg elbow work just as well if it were mounted at a 45 deg angle so the direction of the airstream was the same? or even a straight inlet mounted on the side instead of the top?
Sorry if this has been asked before, I did search but couldn't find anything.
