Captures even more microscopic dust

With two tiers of smaller cyclones, DC50 captures more microscopic dust in the bin.

2 Tier Radial™ cyclones

Smaller cyclones generate higher centrifugal forces, so they capture more microscopic dust – the dust that contains allergens and bacteria.

In DC50, 19 cyclones work in parallel across two tiers, creating both high centrifugal forces and high airflow. With gravimetric efficiencies of over 99%, they capture more microscopic dust than any other cyclones.

Dyson’s most advanced cleaner head technology

The DC50 cleaner head automatically adjusts between carpets and hard floors, sealing in suction. Dyson engineers stripped back the design so that the brush bar has full, uninterrupted coverage of the surface it’s cleaning. With an in-line drive motor, there’s no belt to replace. And with carbon fibre filaments, fine dust is removed from hard floors.

Anti-static carbon fibre filaments

The brush bars of most vacuums only contain nylon bristles. While these loosen dirt from carpets, they’re less effective on hard floors, where fine dust can be left behind.

Dyson brush bars are different. They have a row of anti-static carbon fibre filaments, as well as nylon bristles. The filaments prevent the build up of the static charge that holds dust to the floor, allowing it to be sucked up into the vacuum.

DC50 Stairs

Light and compact

DC50 is Dyson’s smallest upright vacuum cleaner, so it’s light to carry and can be stored in small spaces. Despite its small size, it has the performance of a full-size machine. The technology inside has not simply been ‘shrunk’, but concentrated – every angle and dimension re-engineered.

Rides on a ball – steers easily into difficult places

No more awkward moves – DC50 can be steered with a turn of the wrist. And it’s streamlined for cleaning in difficult places.

Ball™ technology – a dynamic turning circle

Fixed wheels are not designed to turn corners. But a ball can turn on the spot. As the ball’s axis is titled, its turning circle tightens – allowing full and accurate steering control.

The vacuum’s key components have been engineered to fit inside the ball itself. This gives the machine a streamlined profile, allowing access to tight spaces and lowering its centre of gravity to make it lighter in the hand.

With DC50, even more of the vacuum’s components are located inside the ball, further streamlining DC50’s profile and reducing its overall size.
