Laguna PFLUX series cyclones have:
- Remote start & stop
- Fully Automated Filter Cleaning
- Riveted Steel Fan With Backward Curved Fin Design
- Smart Lift Collection Drum
- Hose Inlet With Splitter And Rubber Blanking Caps
- Portability With 4 Swivel Castors
- HEPA Filtration – Down To 0.4 Micron
- LED warning light when collection drum is full
- LED warning light when HEPA filter needs cleaning
- Swing Away Doors With Acoustic Foam To Lower The Noise Level
- Semi Automatic Emptying Of Canister Dust
The octagonal collection drum is mounted on a set of castors to allow it to be rolled over to waste bin for emptying. When the collection drum is locked into position, using the quick action lever, a rubber seal is engaged to make it airtight. These smart features mean faster drum emptying. The capacity of the drum has also been increased by 40% to give less frequent emptying.
A 100mm (4”) hose port is located on the end of the HEPA filter to allow automated emptying of the very fine dust collected in the chamber. Connect the other end of the hose to the main inlet and run the cyclone which re-circulated air and moves the fine dust into the collection drum.
Supplied with remote start handset, 1 collection bag for main drum, 1.8m power cable with a fitted 32amp Industrial plug.
This Machine requires a 32amp supply and it's recommended that a C Type breaker is used.

BachWoodWorks (verified owner) –
This is a fantastic piece of kit. I’m running it over a 200mm ducted system with 4 100mm primary outlets (3 split to 2) and there is plenty of suction with 2+ open. It also looks fabulous – like a space station from a 70s movie. The main dust collector slots in and out nicely as well. The remote works through a concrete/timber wall.
There are some negatives.
The quality of the recessed threads fitted into the frames are of inconsistent quality. Some you can tighten to a ‘good’ tightness in keeping with the weight and size of the machine and others spin before getting anywhere close – its a heavy piece of kit so one day these will require remedial work. I also reported 7 possible updates to the build manual that would help anyone putting one together.
An important consideration for anyone thinking of installing one in a workshop located on a domestic property (or supply) are the electrical supply requirements. The manual says a 32A Type D MCB which are not easy to source. Type Cs are more common and mine seems to be OK so far but there are wider implications for electrical safety changing to Type C/D so this should only be done in discussion with a qualified electrician. The extractor really needs to be on its own dedicated circuit. It also states that the running ampage is 17amps, which is some power usage and related running cost. I’m glad that I also have an air filter to provide general filtering so the PFlux is only required when machines are in use.
Finally, I am grateful that the extractor is located in an adjacent room to where I am working. The average DB level via my phone app is 75db which to me still feels very loud and if on constantly would be draining. Some noise is just the sound of suction and air rushing through the ducting system (this is obviously a good thing) and opening extra gates changes its tone but some is from the machine itself and its good that I’m not sharing a room with it.
Despite its issues which are predominately build and installation based, I would definitely recommend the P-Flux 3 to the fully informed buyer.
