3 Gallon Stainless Steel Vacuum Chamber

The HNZXIB VC-2 provides a 13 litre capacity for degassing resins, silicones and other solutions in laboratory or workshop environments. Its all stainless steel barrel measures 245 by 270 millimetres and features a silicone sealing ring for reliable air tightness. The unit arrives in wooden case packaging and includes a one year warranty.

18mm Polycarbonate Lid with Large View Window

The chamber is sealed by an 18 millimetre thick polycarbonate lid that is 30 times tougher than acrylic and resists deformation under vacuum. This transparent cover allows full visual monitoring of the degassing process without the sharp-edge risk associated with tempered glass. A shockproof, oil-filled vacuum gauge with 0.5 inHg accuracy is fitted as standard.

Sustained Vacuum Performance Under Load

Ultra-thick stainless steel construction prevents barrel deformation during extended evacuation cycles, maintaining structural integrity where thinner walls might flex. The silicone gasket resists butane and common solvents, preserving seal life across repeated solvent-based degassing runs. The valve assembly supports consistent high vacuum maintenance for prolonged processing periods.

Questions about this item

How much solution can the 13-litre stainless barrel hold for degassing?

The chamber is rated at 3 gallons (13 L), giving enough internal volume for batches of resin, silicone or other fluids up to that capacity.

What does the 0.5 inHg gauge accuracy mean when I am pulling a vacuum?

The oil-filled gauge reads within half an inch of mercury, so you can monitor the vacuum level closely and know when the target pressure is reached.

Will the 18 mm polycarbonate lid and 245 mm diameter barrel fit on my bench?

The barrel measures 245 mm wide by 270 mm high, and the 18 mm thick lid sits on top, so allow at least that footprint plus clearance for the gauge and valve.
