The Festool CTMC MIDI I-Basic is a powerful and compact M-Class dust extractor designed for working on the move without relying on mains power. Pair it with your Festool cordless tools for sawing, sanding or drilling and you’ve got a fully cordless setup.
Powered by two 18V batteries, its 36V turbine delivers strong suction performance. The touch control panel keeps things simple, with controls for adjusting the suction level, Bluetooth® connectivity and manual dedusting. Storage is built in too, with a compartment for the suction hose and a separate area for the batteries.
Automatic starting works when your Festool cordless tool is fitted with a Bluetooth® battery. Pair the battery with the extractor and it starts automatically when you start using your tool. You can also start the extractor directly from the suction hose using the supplied CT-F I remote control - ideal for clearing up any dust left behind.
The CTMC MIDI I is approved for M-Class dust, making it a good fit for joinery and installation work involving MDF and other man-made materials such as paint, plaster, cement and concrete. It can also be used for wet extraction with a suitable wet filter.
Features:
- M-Class dust extraction - suitable for man-made wood like MDF and mineral dust with limit values above 0.1 mg/m³.
