Product ComparisonPremier Oil Pump vs Standard Oil PumpOil ChangesThis new Premier Pump rarely needs to have the oil changed or filtered. The pump has a gas ballast feature that makes it so water does not stay in the oil. Because of this, the oil in the pump will be pristine and clear, even after 30 or more batches. You simply won’t need to change the oil until you have run 20 or more batches. Whereas, the oil in the Standard Vacuum Pump needs to be changed and filtered every 4 or 5 batches (when using the new 3/8 inch vacuum hose). You should only replace the oil in the unit with Robinair Premium High Vacuum Pump Oil or with JB Industries Black Gold Vacuum Pump Oil. Both of these oil types may be purchased from Amazon and other locations. Do not use Dairyland vacuum pump oil or Harvest Right vacuum pump oil. Both of these products are great for Harvest Right's standard vacuum pumps. However, these oils will not work in the Premium (Industrial) Vacuum Pump because they have detergents in them.Vacuum PressureUnder cold and hot conditions the Premier Pump will pull a deeper vacuum than the Standard Pump. Under cold conditions the difference is .05 Pascal for the Premier Pump and .08 Pascal for the Standard Pump. Whereas, under warm conditions the difference is much greater: .05 Pascal for the Premier Pump and 2.05 Pascal for the Standard Pump.Hence, the Premier Pump is especially not affected by warm, ambient conditions. When temperatures rise, it will pull a vacuum far better than the Standard Pump. The Premier Pump is just not affected by outside heat. It pulls the same deep vacuum even when it is in a warm environment.NoiseThe Premier Pump is substantially quieter than the Standard Pump, 52 decibels versus 64 decibels. The Industrial Pump at 52 decibels is about the same as a refrigerator.Oil Mist FilterBoth pumps come with an oil mist filter. However, the Premier Pump’s oil mist filter allows for no oil spray at all and it will last much longer.Power UseThe Premier Pump uses less power than the Standard Pump (187 watts versus 218 watts).AmperageUnder hot conditions at ultimate vacuum pressure the Standard Pump pulls 2.1 amps while the Premier Pump only pulls 1.7 amps. Hence, the Premier Pump is more efficient.Weight The Premier Pump is easier to move around as it weighs 5 pounds less than the Standard Pump (32 lbs. versus 37 lbs.)LifeThe Premier Pump is more durable and will last longer than the Standard Pump.

The entire process is automatic.1. Raw or cooked foods are placed in the freeze dryer where they are frozen to between -30 degrees and -50 degrees Fahrenheit.2. Once frozen, the freeze dryer creates a vacuum in the food chamber.3. As the food is gradually warmed, the water turns to vapor and evaporates out of the food (sublimation).4. When dry, the freeze dryer notifies the user that the process is complete by sounding an audible beep.5. You can then remove the freeze dried food from the dryer and place it in vacuum-sealed containers that are moisture and oxygen proof (preferably a mylar pouch or a can) to ensure freshness until opened.6. When water is added to the food, it regains its original fresh flavor, aroma, texture, and appearance! What size are the freeze dryers and how much do they weigh?

It typically takes between 20 to 40 hours to complete the process. Food type and quantity will affect the freeze-dry cycle. Things like meat, peas and corn dry quickly, while squash and watermelon can take longer. The thickness of the food slices will affect the cycle time too.Most importantly, your machine senses when the food is ready (alerting you with a beep) so you don’t have to guess when to stop the freeze-dry cycle. Is it ok to freeze things prior to placing in the freeze dryer? Yes! It is a great idea to put frozen products into your freeze dryer. Your machine will accept pre-frozen foods and cool them even further, to around -40 degrees F. What components make up a freeze dryer? The freeze dryer unit itself as well as a high-quality vacuum pump that sits outside the freeze dryer. What maintenance is required for a freeze dryer? The freeze dryer itself requires little to no maintenance. However, as shown below, all freeze dryers come with a high quality vacuum pump, which requires some maintenance, mainly adding and draining oil.The vacuum pump comes equipped with an initial supply of oil. There are 3 cups of oil in a vacuum pump that need to be changed regularly to keep a freeze dryer running efficiently. This is a simple process, and requires little effort.Each freeze dryer also includes a stand-alone oil filter. The filter cleans the oil and allows you to keep reusing your oil as if it were new.
