Vac Steal Accessories

Vacuum Activated Switches: 3-13017 and 3-13018
Use of this optional accessory extends pump life, reduces noise, saves energy and reduces heat. Install in a vacuum outlet port on the Vac Steal. The adjustable actuation level and a separate deadband (hysteresis) control, permits automatic on/off of an electrical vacuum pump. The 3-13017 plugs into a USA style 115vac outlet and controls this same voltage to two similar outlets, turning the pump off and on as needed. The 3-13018 can be wired internally for use on other voltages (for example, 220 volts 50 hz) or for other uses of the contact closures.

Accessory Adapters: 1-13015 and 1-13016
Evacuate one Vac Steal with two or more vacuum sources in parallel. Accessory #1-13015 installs in a vacuum outlet port of the Vac Steal, creating a barbed connection for an additional source. It contains a one-way valve to prevent loss of vacuum when a source vacuum falls below Vac Steal level. Identical in function, the #1-13016 provides a 3/8" Polyflo connection instead of a barbed connection. Choose the one most convenient for your use.
