• Dual stage vacuum pump for deeper vacuum & efficient moisture/solvent removal
  
  
• All fittings are pre-installed; all you have to do is get drying! 

How it works:
The two steel vessels act as a drying chamber and a moisture trap. The moisture trap acts as a reservoir that collects excess moisture from the attached drying chamber, while multiplying the strength of the vacuum pump.

1. Prep vacuum pump and ensure secure connection between steel vessels, gaskets, and hoses

2. Create a slurry in each exterior bucket using isopropyl alcohol & dry ice (sold separately)

3. Place product to be processed into drying chamber. 

4. Place each steel vessel into its own exterior bucket. 

5. Monitor the dry ice slurry and keep it cold by adding isopropyl alcohol as needed until the desired result is reached within the drying chamber.
