Figures taken from the manufacturer: source. Anything we could not verify is left out rather than estimated. Specifications change by model year and configuration - confirm with the supplier before relying on them.

Who uses it

The CTL 26 is the workhorse dust extractor that Festool track saw and sander owners buy to complete their system, with Bluetooth auto-start when a connected tool is switched on. It is chosen over generic site vacuums for dust class L filtration and integration with Festool's Systainer storage.

Closest alternative

The model most often cross-shopped against the CTL 26 EI is the Makita VC4210L.

We do not hold verified figures for it yet, so there is no side-by-side to link to.
