Cyclone performance

The CordZero’s multi-cyclonic separation does an excellent job stripping fine dust out of the airstream before it reaches the pre-motor filter, helping the vacuum hold suction and reducing the need for frequent filter cleanings.

Its multi cyclone cleaning system maintains strong suction while directing debris into the bin, which helps filters last longer and keeps performance consistent across different floor types.

The vortex/mono-cyclone system is credited with strong separation and suction stability, aiming to keep fine dust contained and reduce dust re-release during cleaning and emptying.

Dyson’s multi/2-tier cyclonic system is described as maintaining airflow while separating fine dust effectively, supporting strong suction without relying on bags.

The Vortex single-cyclone system captures both coarse and fine debris well for everyday cleaning and keeps most dust in the bin, but the internal shroud can still clog with heavy hair and debris loads, reducing airflow in extreme cases.

PureCyclone Tech is credited with keeping airflow strong by efficiently separating dust from air, helping maintain performance between cleanings.

Two-tier radial cyclones maintain airflow and help the V8 Absolute capture fine dust efficiently, supporting its strong overall cleaning performance.

The multi-cyclone design (often described as using 14 cyclones) is cited as a key part of the V11’s strong airflow and consistent suction, helping separate dust from air without relying solely on the filter.

The bagless station is frequently described as using cyclone-style separation (often branded PureCyclone), which helps avoid consumable bags and supports consistent pickup. It still requires filter cleaning to keep performance strong.

Cyclone and airflow management are described positively, supporting strong sustained suction and effective dust handling; details are limited, but test-driven outlets generally report robust performance.

Reviews note Dyson’s Gen5 multi-cyclone approach and cite differences like more cyclones on the Outsize versus Detect in some comparisons, supporting strong separation and sustained performance. This is discussed as part of Dyson’s broader Gen5 engineering focus on power and filtration.

Compared with older Dyson cyclones, the Ball Animal 3 Extra allows more dust to reach the filters, so they tend to look dirty sooner and need washing more frequently even though overall suction remains strong.
