Sammic SE-208 - Benchtop Chamber Vacuum Packer, 8m³/h Busch Pump, 280mm Bar

The SE-208 is the most compact chamber vacuum packer in our Sammic range, with an 8 m³/h Busch pump and a 280 mm sealing bar on a 288 x 333 x 110 mm chamber. It suits cafes, delis and small restaurants that portion, marinate or bag food for sous vide cooking without giving up much bench space. Step up to the SE-310 for a deeper chamber and a 320 mm bar, or the SU-310GP for stored programs and gas flush.

Common questions:

Can I pack soups, sauces or marinades?
Yes. The vacuum is controlled by a sensor, which Sammic says makes packing liquids safe. Keep the bag within the 280 mm bar and the product below the 110 mm chamber height.

Can it vacuum containers as well as bags?
It is Vac-Norm ready with automatic decompression, so it works with Sammic Vac-Norm containers through the external vacuum kit, which is sold separately. Ask us for a price.

Is the 8 m³/h pump enough for my kitchen?
It suits cafes and delis packing small batches through the day. If you pack in bulk, a bigger pump such as the 20 m³/h unit on the SE-420 removes air faster, which shortens each cycle.
