The VacMaster Chamber Vacuum Sealer with Oil Pump - Stainless Steel VP215 packaging machine is perfect for packaging soups, stews, and marinades. It keeps game meat and fish fresher longer and stores meats and fish scent-free. Use this machine to eliminate the waste of bulk quantities of foods.

The VacMaster VP215C Stainless Steel Chamber Vacuum Sealer with Oil Pump Machine provides a solution to the problem posed by the vacuum packaging machines currently on the market: how to vacuum package liquids and liquid-rich foods. Current machines on the market are suction machines, meaning air is vacuumed out of the vacuum bag, then the bag is sealed. However, along with the air, liquids are also vacuumed out of the bag, leading to partial or failed seals.

The VP215C Chamber Machine uses a different technology to eliminate this problem. When sealing with our chamber machine, the vacuum bag to be sealed is placed inside the chamber of the machine, and the lid is closed. Then, air is sucked out of the entire chamber, not just the bag, allowing the air pressure on the inside and outside of the bag to remain equal and liquids to stay in the bag. The bag is then sealed, and air let back into the chamber. In addition, the chamber machine can reach a higher level of vacuum. Most suction machines obtain a 24" to 26" hg level of vacuum, while chamber machines are able to obtain a 27½" to 29½"  hg level of vacuum.

The VP215C Chamber Machine works with commercial vacuum pouches, called "barrier" pouches, which eliminate bag respiration, preventing air from re-entering the vacuum pouch over time. These barrier pouches allow users to attain the benefits of longer shelf life with less freezer burn, and are more economical than vacuum pouches currently on the market. It really is a whole new way to vacuum package. If you've never experienced chamber technology before, you'll be amazed at the difference. The VacMaster® VP215 Chamber Machine will change the way you vacuum package! The VP215 accepts chamber pouches up to 10"W x 13"L.
