Phantom® Vat Removal Tool

Quick Overview

The perfect soultion to potential hazards when handling vats with hot solutions. Allows you to quickly and safely remove the vat from the dye heating system.

Product Description

Safely handling vats filled with hot solution is a major concern for any optical lab. At Phantom Research Laboratories, we have devised a perfect solution to this potential hazard, the Vat Removal tool and Drip Tray. The Vat Removal Tool allows you to quickly and safely remove the vat from the dye heating system without the worry of the vat slipping off the tool, or heat transfer fluid dripping on the floor and counters. Once you have tried the Vat Removal Tool with Drip Tray, you will wonder how you ever got along without it.

Directions:
1. Place the sharp corners (front of tool) against vat flange at a 70° - 90° angle to slightly life the vat.

2. Proceed to slidfe the Tool under the vat flange along the Tool tracks until the vat makes contact with back of the Tool.

3. Tighten the two locking screws to secure the vat in place.

4. Once the Tool is locked onto the vat, grasp the handle of the Tool with one hand and lift the vat vertically out to the dye heating system. Attach the Drip tray to the vat with your other hand.

5. The Drip Tray attaches to the short side of the vat and once in place, the base of the Drip Tray will be parallel to the bottom of the vat. The vat is now ready to be safely moved to any desired location.

6. The two locking screws when tighened, will secure the vat in place. This makes it very safe and easy to discard solutions in the vat.

The lock and sliding retainer can be aligned in a non-horizontal position to secure lenses of slightly different sizes, thicknesses, and shapes. Several models are available to choose from, depending on your needs.

• Specification: 

Model V1 is available in all three materials. It holds one pair of lenses and is recommended for UV treatment and bleaching.

 Item# T338 Plastic, T455 Stainless Steel, T228 Tephlon.

Model V1-R1 is available in all three materials. It has a spring-loaded lock for added safety and holds one

 pair of lenses. Recommended for lens tinting, bleaching,  and UV treatment.

 Item# T340 Plastic, T322 Stainless Steel, T330 Tephlon.

Model V1-RS is available only in stainless steel. It has a split sliding retainer that will hold two lenses of slightly different sizes, thicknes ses, and shapes. This model is strongly recommended for gradient tinting (especially while tinting pilot shaped lenses) and when there is continuous movement of the lens holder.

 • Faster tinting, with better color shade consistency.
 • Variable speed stirrers.
 • Bright display showing both the desired and actual temperatures
 • Digital temperature control, with detachable temperature probes.
 • Nonstick tanks for easy cleaning.
 • No boil-over. Lid position will not affect the temperature.

•  Description: 

Vortex Digital Tinter 4 is an advanced generation four vat (tank) tinting system combining four accurate digital "auto-tuning" PID temperature controllers with bright LED displays showing the desired (set) and actual (measured) temperatures of each tank. Each tank has an individual digital process timer to monitor tinting times. Vortex digital tinter 4 incorporates variable speed stirring, hinged-lids that do not need to be removed when tinting lenses, and special coated easy to clean stainless steel vats for heating lab chemicals. The temperature probe located in each tank precisely measures the solution temperature (not HTF temperature), preventing messy boil-overs. The detachable probe allows for easy vat removal and cleaning. Vortex 4 is simple to use and is the perfect machine for fast absorption of tints and UV into coated polycarbonate, hi- index, and CR39 lens materials.

Accurate digital temperature control

Detachable temperature probe.

Nonstick Vat and stirring bar. Nonstick (Vat) prevents dyes from sticking and caking to the walls, therefore making vat cleaningeasy.
