VSM Replacement Vacuum Sensor for VAK-Matic (VM) Series – Precision Control for Optimal Vacuum Performance

The VSM Replacement Vacuum Sensor is a high-quality, precision-engineered component specifically designed for the VAK-Matic (VM) series. This vacuum sensor plays a crucial role in automating the vacuum system, ensuring it operates efficiently by shutting off once the desired vacuum level is reached and reactivating as needed. The VSM sensor helps maintain a stable vacuum level for effective pressing, making it an essential tool for achieving optimal results in woodworking and other vacuum-assisted applications.

Key Features:

• Automated Vacuum Control: The VSM sensor is programmed to automatically shut off the vacuum system once the optimal vacuum level, typically set at 25 inches of mercury (in Hg), is achieved. This automation minimizes pump wear and reduces energy consumption, providing both operational efficiency and cost savings.
• Dynamic Re-Engagement: When the vacuum level naturally decreases—such as from outgassing of wood or glue volatilization—the sensor reactivates the vacuum system at around 20 in Hg. This ensures that the vacuum is consistently maintained without the need for constant manual adjustments, delivering reliable performance throughout pressing operations.
• Adjustable Vacuum Threshold: For applications requiring customized pressure levels, the VSM sensor allows for easy adjustment of the shut-off point. If your location is at a higher altitude, where achieving 25 in Hg may be challenging, or if you are working with more delicate materials that require reduced pressure, you can lower the vacuum threshold to meet your specific needs.
• Enhanced System Protection and Longevity: By automatically managing the vacuum cycles, the VSM sensor reduces the frequency of pump operation, which in turn minimizes wear and extends the lifespan of your vacuum system. This efficient regulation helps prevent potential system overloads and ensures that your equipment remains in peak working condition.
• Precision-Engineered for Seamless Integration: Designed to integrate seamlessly with the VAK-Matic (VM) series, the VSM vacuum sensor is a direct replacement part that restores full functionality to your vacuum system, ensuring dependable performance and ease of installation.

The VSM Replacement Vacuum Sensor is an essential component for maintaining a consistent, optimal vacuum level in the VAK-Matic series. By automating system control and offering customizable settings, this sensor not only improves efficiency but also enhances the overall quality of your vacuum pressing applications. For those seeking precision, durability, and ease of use, the VSM sensor is an indispensable tool in maximizing the effectiveness of your vacuum system.
