The iVAC Switch Box unit is intended for indoor use, in dry locations only.

General Description and Operation
The iVAC Switch Box is intended to be used in conjunction with a power tool, such as a table saw, router or
sander and an associated vacuum or dust collection system rated at 1HP (4 Peak HP) or less.
The unit has the following Inputs, Outputs and Controls.
It is provided with two input power cords; one for the power tool, Tool Input and one for the vacuum system,
Vacuum Input.
There are three AC receptacles: Auxiliary, Tool Power and Vacuum Power.
There are three user controls: a Mode Switch and two Circuit Breakers.
Two power cords are provided. Each power cord is individually protected by a 15 Amp circuit breaker.
The Tool Input power cord is used to supply power to the power tool being used and also the Auxiliary recepta-
cle.
The Vacuum Input cord is used to supply power to the vacuum system.
If the combined power requirement of the power tool and the vacuum is less than 15 Amps, then the Vacuum
Input cord can be plugged into the Auxiliary receptacle.
In some situations, the combined power requirement of the power tool and the vacuum system may exceed the
15 Amp rating of the AC mains supply circuit being used. If this situation occurs, then the two input power cords
should be connected to two separate 15 Amp circuits, with separate circuit breakers.
The Auxiliary receptacle is powered from the Tool Input power cord and can be used to power the vacuum
system, as described above.
The Tool Power receptacle is used to provide power to the power tool being used.
The Vacuum Power receptacle is used to provide power to the vacuum system.
The Mode Switch is used to determine the mode of operation of the vacuum system.
There are three modes of operation: Auto – Off – On.
In the Auto mode, when the power tool is activated, power is supplied to the vacuum system after a short Turn
On Delay. When the power tool is turned off, the power to the vacuum system will be maintained for
approximately a further six seconds, in order to clear dust from the work surface.
In the Off mode, power is disconnected from the vacuum system.
In the On mode, power is connected to the vacuum system.
There are two Circuit Breakers on the top surface of the unit; each is rated at 15 Amps. The Tool Breaker is
used to prevent overload conditions at the Tool Power receptacle combined with the Auxiliary
It If the Tool Breaker operates, the configuration needs to be checked. If under these conditions the Vacuum
Input cord is connected to the Auxiliary receptacle, it may be necessary to connect the Vacuum Input cord to
a separate AC mains outlet, which is fed from a different household circuit breaker.
The Vacuum Breaker is used to prevent overload conditions to the Vacuum Input cord. In the event that the
