Hi all,

I am intending to use this pump together with your 26l vacuum degassing chamber for vacuum resin casting.

I would like to ask about the negative pressure (or underpressure) it can create as I would need at least -0,9 bar (which is about -13 PSI).

The questions:

1. Is the pump able to create this underpressure?

2. Will the degassing chamber withstand this underpressure without any risk of implosion?

Thank you for answers,

Martin

The problem you have when trying to boil water using vacuum pressure, is that the water boiling reduces the pressure as it turns into a gas.  Try with out any water in there and see if it helps.  If it still wont reach the vacuum make sure all the seals are tight ect.
