$18 gets you a LPG detector, I just placed one of these on the floor of my solvent storage space,

Works nicely, I'm ordering another for my extraction space even though it's force ventilated.


Still looking for an inexpensive continuous duty version of this detector for the fridge, I never place flammable solvents in the fridge/freezer that aren't sealed tightly, but in case something totally unexpected occurs like a plastic cap cracking it would be well worth the hassle.

EXTRACTOR WARNING

DO NOT OPERATE THIS EQUIPMENT UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL.

BY PURCHASING/ OPERATING THIS EQUIPMENT, YOU, AS THE OPERATOR AND CONSUMER, ARE ASSUMING ALL RISK AND LIABILITY THAT ARE ASSOCAITED WITH OPERATING THE EQUIPMENT.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN HAZARDOUS CONSEQUENCES, SUCH AS PHYSICAL INJURY TO SELF OR OTHERS, DAMAGE TO SURROUNDING PROPERTY, FIRE, ETC.DO NOT IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE OPERATE THIS EQUIPMENT INDOORS OR IN AREAS WITH LOW FRESH AIR FLOW.

Extractor Disclaimer:

All extractors are tested under a vacuum and at pressure prior to shipping. Upon delivery and before EVERY use, the customer must pull a full vacuum and pressurize the system to 90PSI with inert gas prior to operation to ensure assembly is correct and that the unit is functioning. Failure to do so could result in potential solvent leaks, injury, or even death. We are not responsible for failure to test the unit prior to operation.

If a leak is detected after following these guidelines, depressurize the system and inspect the area of the leak for any problems with seals or defects/damage to equipment. Once problem has been identified and resolved, pressurize the system and check for leaks again.

If the problem CANNOT be resolved, do not use the system annd please contact Best Value Vacs immediately at (800) 562-7471 or (331) 281-0154, M-F, 9-5 (CST).

WARNING!!!

Contents may be under positive pressure before, during, and even after operation has been complete. NEVER open or disassemble equipment without ensuring that ALL valves are open to relieve any residual pressure. Even if a gauge indicates that the pressure is zero, please ensure that all valves are 100% open before disassembly.

Extractor General Guidelines

Be sure to have a safe and organized work environment, free of obstacles and possible hazards, in an open, well-ventilated area. NEVER operate any form of extractor, including open blast, closed column, or closed lopp systems, in a confined space, indoors, or in areas with minimal flow of fresh air. NEVER operate extraction equipment near electrical sources: including outlets, pumps, lights, or heaters.

Prior to operation, ensure that you and the extractor are grounded. Static electricity can result in a potentially dangerous situation. Be sure to take extra precaution during winter months and in dry climates where static electricity has a greater potential to occur. Our tripod and quad-pod design can facilitate improving safety/ grounding.

Prior to operation, please take the necessary safety precautions by wearing safety goggles, a face shield, gloves, protective clothing, and a respirator.

ALWAYS inspect steel components for any potential structural issues. Be sure to inspect all sight glasses/ viewing ports for stress fractures, chips, scratches, and deterioration. Inspect all clamps for thread stripping or stretching. If any of these issues are found, DO NOT USE and contact the manufacturer immediately. If you need to contact the manufacturer, please have the product description available in order for the customer service representative to assist you.

During assembly and disassembly, ensure that all components are directed away from your face and other extremities. ALWAYS pay special attention to the gauges on the system; NEVER assemble or disassemble components while under vacuum or pressure.

NEVER place extractor tubes or Butane tanks containing any form of solvent near exposed wiring, non-insulated motors (non-explosion proof/sparking motors), open flames, or in the refrigerator/freezer. Please be sure to use static dissipative equipment. Failing to follow these instructions may result in a potential explosion.

Never bring concentrates or extracts indoors until the vacuum purging of the solvent has been completed. Never place extracts in purging vessels until all liquid solvents, such as butane, alcohol, and propane, have outgassed into the atmosphere (outdoors). Failing to do so could result in personal injury and property damage.

This member has completed 5 grow reports.
Rosin is a lot safer to make and tastes better. There's no reason to buy all that butane anymore . And no residues or contaminants just pure rosin. After initial cost for press its all free! Peace

Rosin is ok, it's a full melt, but not a super melt, it leaves deposits on your nail, and probably on your lungs. Dissolve your rosin in solvent and pass it through 2.5 micron filter paper like I do with all my extractions and you'll notice a difference.
