Clearvue have 6'' to two 4'' outlets but I have it on good advice that I will require three 4'' outlets to obtain adequate fine dust removal. ( thanks Bob L)

Thanks

One way is to use 2 x 6" Storm water WYE junctions like

Then you need to add 6 to 4"" level invert junctions" like this to the 3 remaining 6" openings

But if you can get these they cost a little more but you save on the cost of 2 level inverts.

Thanks again Bob, makes sense once I see it. I'm going to change my machine ports to 6'' where I can but some like the carbatec drum sander may prove difficult. This has a 2.5 '' port which I think I may be able to upgrade to 4'' only.
