In the world of industrial dust collection, efficiency isn’t just a goal—it’s essential for keeping operations productive, safe, and cost-effective. That’s where US Duct’s Legend Performance Solutions comes in, offering innovative dust collection equipment built to handle dust collection and waste management with unmatched performance.

‍

From pre-separation to discharge, our Legend line is designed to help your dust collection system run cleaner, last longer, and require less maintenance. Each product functions independently or can be combined with other Legend Performance Solutions, giving you a customized, high-performing solution that meets your facility’s specific needs and integrates into your existing system.

Let’s take a closer look at some of our Legendary waste management performance multipliers.

Legend Inline Separator – Take the Load Off Your Collector

The best dust collection systems don’t just capture dust; they manage it efficiently from the start. That’s where the Inline Separator shines. Acting as a first line of defense, this pre-filter for dust collection removes up to 90%* of heavy particulates before they even reach your main collector.

The Benefits:

• Reduces filter clogging, extending filter life

• Minimizes bag changes, cutting down on labor costs

• Reduces maintenance, so your system runs longer with fewer interruptions

Less dust making it to your collector means less downtime, more efficiency, and lower overall costs.

Legend Baghouse Collector – Built for Heavy-Duty Filtration

Legend Quick-Change Hopper – Seal in Dust, Lock in Efficiency

Tired of constantly changing out dust collection bags? The Quick-Change Hopper is a faster, more efficient alternative to standard bag collection, helping you handle more waste with less hassle.

How It Works:

1. Seal & Position – Roll the hopper under your baghouse and lock it into place using pneumatic actuators.

2. Remove & Transport – When full, lower the hopper, roll it out, and transport it with the built-in casters or forklift pockets.

3. Empty with Ease – Open the guillotine-style bottom door and release the collected waste effortlessly.

4. Return & Resume – Put the hopper back in place and keep collecting dust.

Legend Industrial Rotary Airlock – The Key to Controlled Discharge

Filtration is only half the battle—what happens after dust is collected is just as important. The Legend Industrial Rotary Airlock ensures a continuous, controlled flow of dust and particulates out of your system, without disrupting airflow.

Why It’s Essential:

• Maintains static pressure differential inside the dust collector
