Forge Vacuum Chamber 8L Pro Kit

Our BHO Hardware vacuum chamber 8L PRO kits, made of high-quality stainless steel, are an ideal option for those looking to streamline their degassing process. The Pro kits include a heat mat. This line of functional and practical vacuum chambers offers a tailored solution for various degassing needs. Each chamber includes a 3-foot hose that easily attaches to the included vacuum pump for quick degassing.

Quality Components

The high quality 304 stainless steel allows these chambers to be used thousands of times without losing performance. All vacuum chambers are tested and signed off by the BHO Hardware engineering and quality control department before being dispatched to customers. 

The chamber lid is manufactured from varying sizes of thick crystal clear acrylic and features an isolated vacuum gauge along with two 1/8"" BSP ball valves - one is used to connect the chamber to the vacuum pump and the second is used to evacuate the vacuum after degassing.

High Quality Pump Options

The Aitcool brand makes exceptional single-stage high-quality pumps - all their pumps are CE marked, a European quality standard. The Forge vacuum chamber kits are supplied with either the 2.5cfm or 4.5cfm pumps

Digital Heat Mat & Controller

The digital heat mat is suitable for use with our vacuum chamber and extraction systems. The vacuum chamber or splatter platter can be placed on top of the heat mat and this will enable the degassing process to speed up and be more efficient.

The digital controller is extremely accurate, and will hold a desired temperature to within a degree celsius (depending on the environment and air movement). The controller has a temperature offset that will need to be found to set the controller accurately. Anything you attach to a heat pad will act like a heat sink, so the set temperature on the heat mat will be different from the actual inside temperature. Instructions for programming the timer and temperature are included.

How To Use

We recommend a maximum of 15-20 minutes to run the pump and pull a deep vacuum. It should take 10 minutes to pull the vacuum and then leave the pump running for another 10 minutes. After this initial pull you should see the vacuum drop as this is when most of the degassing occurs. The vacuum can be maintained for up to 100 hours or longer but the pump itself isn't run continuously. Periodically let air in to your chamber to burst any bubbles and then pull the vacuum again, using the pump for another maximum of 20 minutes. This can be repeated intermittently and you can also flip your material as part of the degassing process.
