Vac110 Chamber Vacuum Sealer: Buyer’s Guide
“The Vac110 … built intentionally for prolonged and continuous use and vacuum sealing in bulk. “
Vacuum packaging is an involved process which means finding the resources that best fit your personal packaging needs is essential for a smooth process. The last thing we wish is for you to feel unprepared when it comes to the equipment available to assist you in producing the best results with the Vac110. The following buyer’s guide is meant to help you know what is required to maintain your Vac110 chamber vacuum sealer, enhance your vacuum packaging experience, and expand the vacuum sealing opportunities to ensure you have what you need!
Vac110 Chamber Sealer Equipment
Unit Cover
Prevent scratches on the stainless steel body with the Vac110 cover made to fit perfectly over the machine. Protect your chamber vacuum sealer from outer damage especially if you store it in the garage or basement where dust and particles can build up quickly. The cover material is durable and provides adequate puncture resistance to limit any deterioration in appearance. Designed with a modern look, this Vac110 cover will unquestionably maintain the life of the unit surface!
Stainless Steel Cart
The Vac110 functions is known as our powerhouse chamber vacuum sealer. Therefore, the height (16″) and depth (19.8″) is larger than the Vac100 making it less convenient for a counter space.
A stainless steel cart is thoughtfully constructed with both convenience and functionality in mind as a safe space for your Vac110. With two shelves, you can place your Vac110 on the top shelf with replacement parts and packaging supplies on the bottom shelf. Transport everything you need anywhere like vacuum packaging on wheels!
Seal Bars
Standard Seal Bar: Automatically received with the purchase of the Vac110 chamber vacuum sealer. It consists of an 8 mm heat strip sufficient for sealing the standard vacuum pouch. We recommend having extra seal bar tape and heat strip replacement at hand to avoid packaging interruptions.
Retort Bar Assembly: For retort canning or sealing mylar bags, we recommend a retort bar assembly with a 3.5 mm, concave heat strip, it can withstand higher temperatures by concentrating the heat along the ridge of the concavity.
Filler Plates
Using filler plates highly depends on the scenario and the products you package. Two filler plates are already included upon purchase of the Vac110 due to the higher chamber height (5.2″) of these chamber vacuum sealers compared with the Vac100.
Save money! If you package narrow or shorter products that do not take up the entire chamber, filler plates raise the filled pouch within the vacuum sealer chamber so that the sealing end is evenly aligned with the bag clips. This creates a cleaner appearance and eliminates the need to spend more money on longer pouches to reach the bag clips.
Decrease the vacuum cycle time! While the Vac110 is known as the powerhouse of the VacSeries chamber vacuum sealers, filler plates amplify this benefit even further by simply taking up space in the chamber, meaning less air to pull and saving you precious time!
Vacuum Sealing with a Seal Stamp Kit
Sick of dealing with the uncertainty of which foods have been in your freezer the longest? Your Vac110 is built with the ability to utilize seal stamps!
A seal stamp kit works perfectly for tracking all the vacuum-sealed packages stored in your freezer. In addition, the seal stamp kit is easy to use! Simply locate the cushion strip on the lid that engages with the seal bar upon closing. Remove and rotate the cushion strip to reveal the cavities and insert the desired stamps into those cavities to mark the date or other product details of different bags.
NOTE: The seal stamp kit is only compatible with the standard seal bar on the Vac110 chamber vacuum sealer.
Replacement Parts
The Vac110 is known as the powerhouse of our chamber vacuum sealers. This chamber sealer is built intentionally for prolonged and continuous use and vacuum sealing in bulk. Constructed with an oil pump as opposed to the Food Saver-type dry piston pumps, this chamber vac can even vacuum seal liquids with a vacuum draw of up to 99.8%! This includes liquid-rich foods such as soups and marinating steak for sous vide cooking.
To maintain these unmatched features the Vac110 chamber vacuum sealer provides, it will need proper and consistent maintenance. JVR Industries ensures our customers all of the necessary sources and means for easy self-serviceability so you can replace a part anywhere without losing any time!
VacOil
The #22 premium vacuum pump oil provides maximal protection and performance keeping your oil pump running at top quality. We recommend an oil change every 6 months following the initial oil change at three months after receiving the Vac110.
The #22 VacOil is available as a quart which provides three oil changes or a gallon providing about twelve oil changes.
Watch this video on how to easily change the oil on your own!
Vacuum Pump Exhaust Filter
The vacuum pump exhaust filter is essential to keep the oil pump running as it filters out the air leaving and entering the vacuum pump. We recommend the vacuum pump exhaust filter be replaced annually to maintain optimal oil pump function.
