Product details
VacuMaid describes this can as a 12 inch steel primary cyclonic separator for use with single motor power units, and part DC1200AC is that canister. Air arriving from the pipe network is spun inside it so debris is thrown out of the airstream and dropped, and what carries on toward the filter has already lost most of its grit.
VacuMaid's own filter listings name the P350P, S2600 and S1600 as units built around a separate DC1200 dirt canister, so those are the systems to look at first when matching a replacement to an existing installation. The canister is also built in more than one diameter, with a 14 inch version alongside this 12 inch one, which is why measuring the can you already have beats ordering by machine name.

Once a canister cracks, dents, or stops sealing at its joints, fine dust slips past the separation stage instead of dropping into the can, and the filter behind it loads far faster than it should. Check the seal where the canister meets the power unit whenever you fit a new one, since a poor joint there holds suction back even with an undamaged can in place.
