iVac Pro Switches for Automatic Dust Collector Control

iVac Pro Switches are the core component of an automated shop dust collection system. Each switch monitors the power draw of a connected tool and automatically triggers the dust collector to start when the tool runs, then stops the collector after a brief delay when the tool shuts off. The result is consistent dust capture at every machine without requiring a separate manual step.

Infinity Tools carries iVac Pro Switches in both 115-volt and 240-volt versions to match different shop configurations. The iVac Pro Switch 115VAC 20A handles standard household-voltage tools including routers, band saws, and sanders. The iVac Pro Switch 240VAC 20A is designed for 240-volt stationary tools such as cabinet table saws, 15-inch planers, and large jointers.

High-Capacity Control with the iVac Contactor

For dust collectors rated above the direct-switch capacity, the iVac Contactor 115VAC with 10HP Capacity provides automated trigger control for large-format dust collectors used in professional and semi-professional shops. The contactor receives the trigger signal from an iVac switch and switches the high-current collector circuit safely.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an iVac Pro Switch and how does it work?

An iVac Pro Switch is an automatic tool-control device that detects when a connected power tool starts, then triggers your dust collector or shop vacuum to run — and stops it after the tool shuts off. It eliminates the need to manually operate a second switch every time you use a tool.

What is the difference between the 115V and 240V iVac Pro Switches?

The iVac Pro Switch 115VAC works with standard household-voltage tools, while the iVac Pro Switch 240VAC is designed for 240-volt stationary machines like cabinet saws and large planers. Always match the switch voltage to your tool's voltage.

What is the iVac Contactor used for?

The iVac Contactor is used when your dust collector requires more current than the iVac Pro Switch can directly handle. It receives the trigger signal from the switch and uses a separate power contactor to safely switch high-capacity collectors up to 10 horsepower.

Can I use an iVac Pro Switch with a router table?

Yes. An iVac Pro Switch can be installed to automatically start your dust collector or shop vacuum whenever the router is running, which is particularly useful during router table operations where both hands are occupied guiding the workpiece.

How many iVac switches do I need for my shop?

One iVac switch per tool is the standard approach for a shop with multiple machines and a single central dust collector. Multi-piece system packs in the iVac collection bundle switches and blast gates to simplify outfitting a full shop.

Are iVac Pro Switches compatible with the iVac blast gates?

Yes. iVac Pro Switches communicate wirelessly with iVac automated blast gates, so the gate serving the active tool opens in sync with the collector starting — and closes when the tool and collector stop.

Does the iVac Pro Switch work with my existing dust collector?

iVac Pro Switches work with most standard dust collectors and shop vacuums. Verify that your collector's voltage and current draw fall within the switch's rated specifications. For large-capacity collectors, use the iVac Contactor in combination with the switch.

What is the shipping policy for iVac Pro Switches?

iVac products ship under Infinity Tools' standard shipping schedule. See the shipping policies page for current timelines and delivery options.

Does Infinity Tools offer price matching on iVac Pro Switches?

Yes. Submit a price-match request on the price-matching page with the competing offer and Infinity Tools will review it for eligible products.

Where can I learn how to plan an automated dust collection system?
