STAR™ 1000 Degassing Unit

The STAR™ 1000 is a suspended spinning rotor degassing system designed to be suspended from an overhead hoist.  Depending on the hoist arrangement, the unit can service a fixed degassing station, or if the hoist is mounted to a rail, STAR 1000 can service multiple degassing stations. The unit requires shop air to propel the belt drive air motor and a 110 volt power source for the operation of the control cabinet's features.
