DS-26P is a 26L vacuum degassing system engineered to offer the highest possible performance and reliability for professional or industrial applications. Its fully integrated design provides a compact footprint, valve-less start/stop operation and extremely fast vacuum pull-down.
Whether you're degassing highly reactive polyurethanes, sensitive water-clear casting resins or a range of RTV silicone rubbers, DC-26P is unmatched for its combination of performance, quality and value.
Please note: The EC20 is NOT suitable for use degassing materials with a high moisture content (such as plaster) or for vacuum drying without the use of a suitable inline moisture trap.
Further Information
Chamber Features & Engineering
The chamber is manufactured from sturdy 4mm mild-steel and finished with a durable grey powder-coating. A clear 20mm acrylic lid provides perfect visibility into the chamber during the degassing operation whilst a custom silicone seal ensures reliable and fast sealing of the chamber.
The lid includes a handle for easy removal and is designed so that it can be hung safely on the back of the chamber during loading and unloading. High quality valves, fittings and a glycerine-filled vacuum gauge complete the chamber and ensure years of trouble-free service.
Superior Performance
The station is powered by a high-specification EC20 vacuum pump developed in conjuction with leading Italian vacuum pump manufacturer DVP. The pump's optimised vacuum curve and high 12CFM throughput ensure class-leading pull-down times of around 30 seconds to 99% vacuum; essential for fast-curing resins and time saving for all degassing operations.
Connection between the pump and chamber uses large 1/2" BSP hose and fittings throughout, minimising airflow restriction and further improving overall performance.
Zero Oil Mist/Vapour
Unlike oil-bath vacuum pumps the EC20 features continuous gas ballast and exhaust mist eliminator to ensure that the exhausted air is almost entirely free from oil making the pump suitable for sensitive environments such as confined workshops, schools, universities and laboratories.
Ready to Run
The DS-26P is supplied complete with an integrated power switch and IEC socket (with choice of region-suitable power-lead) making installation quick and easy - requiring only a standard domestic wall socket. The system requires minimal assembly and can be up and running in a few minutes. Detailed assembly and daily use instructions are provided.

Spare/Replacement Parts
We can supply any replacement or spare parts required to keep your DC26 Vacuum Degassing Chamber in full working order. The two most likely replacement parts are available to buy online:
Use with Acrylic Resins, Solvented Resins and Solvents
Whilst clear acrylic provides the best combination of clarity, durability and practicality for the vast majority of applications, it is highly susceptible to attack from solvents such as acetone and styrene, and acrylic compounds such as methacrylate ester. This is true for all potential lid materials (such as Plexiglass, Perspex and polycarbonate).
For this reason, the chamber must NOT be used for the degassing of acrylic resins (such as 'Cactus Juice' methacrylate) or styrene-borne resins such as polyesters and vinylesters. Use of the chamber to degas such materials will weaken the integrity of the lid and ultimately result in failure.
It is also essential to never use solvents such as acetone, alcohol or MEK to clean the lid.

At the moment, we only manufacture this one size of degassing chamber which seems to be a good size for most people’s applications. Don’t forget that when you degas a silicone rubber for example it will grow to about 5 times (or more) its original volume and so you need to allow lots of ‘head-room’ inside the chamber to allow for this expansion.
If you’re only degassing a small amount of material then you can add some dead-weight to the chamber (like bricks for example) that can take up as much volume as you desire. Doing this will mean that the pump will empty the chamber much more quickly therefore effectively behaving like a smaller chamber. Therefore, by buying a larger chamber and packing it out in this way it will work like a small chamber but if you ever needed the capacity of a larger chamber in the future then you could just remove the packing, rather than buy another chamber.
Yes, it could be beneficial and effective to use our Degassing System to remove air trapped in the polyurethane flooring resin you are using. After degassing the mixed resin, it would still be important to avoid entrapping new air during the pouring process but, providing this can be avoided, it's likely that degassing the resin before pouring would improve the results significantly.
The pump supplied with the system is only designed to operate on a 220/240V electrical system and as such will not work on the standard US 110V which is why we do not offer a US plug as an option on the system.
However, in many areas of the US, it is possible to have a 110V system modified to offer a 220V power outlet. You should consult a local electrician to see if that is possible for your installation. If you confirm you're aware of this and would like to go ahead and purchase our degassing system then we would be more than happy to supply a US style power lead.

Customer Product Reviews for DS26-P Professional Vacuum Degassing System 26L
This is an excellent piece of equipment, well worth the investment.
I've got this in my workshop for several years now, and I must say that I could not be happier with it. Especially the pump is the very best I have ever come across. You did a great job with this setup.
I would advise anyone in need of a vacuum degassing system to invest money in this device. I can degas 5 litres of epoxy resin in just 5 minutes! This enables me to continue with my work and degas enough resin for the larger projects I undertake. I can hardly imagine working without this equipment because it does such a great job.
