THERMALVATBAND TVB-161 KIT – 3D Resin Printer Vat Heating System (UK Adaptor)

The ThermalVATBAND kit includes the 16×1-inch TVB-161 and a power adapter up to 240 volts, making it ideal for use in any country with a plug conversion. Power adapter comes with UK Adaptor

The output operates at a safe range of 12 V/3 A without the risk of damaging FEP or plastic VATS.
The band itself features a flexible thermostat that allows you to maximize the temperature in extreme cold conditions by flexing the thermostat away from the VAT.

The recommended optimum thermostat position is touching the wall. This will automatically regulate the ideal VAT temperature, ranging from 22 °C (70 °F) to 32 °C (90 °F).

– In extreme cold weather, we do recommend a foam tape applied under the case for a better seal, preventing cold air from coming inside.
-Aluminum tape is an alternative tape that can be used on corners or on the interior vat of plastic vats to create a resin and IPA proof seal that allows heat to conduct safely.

To maintain the ideal temperature and match the temperature of the liquid resin, the build plate must be submerged in the vat filled with resin after each use. Following these guidelines will prevent the build plate from rapidly cooling the resin’s temperature. 

– The thermostat reading is from the direct heat of the VATBAND, and the resin will be 5 degrees less. When you see the thermostat go black, the temperature cycling process is rapid, and the thermostat will have a slight delay in reading. Rest assured that your ideal temperature range is cycling, which will prevent FEP from shrinking.
