ContainerThe large container has a volume of 13.7 L (3.6 US Gal). The container is filled with cold water to enable the cleaning process. The container has two grips and a large handle for easy transportation. The back of the container has a pouring spout to facilitate water disposal. The black sticker on the bottom of the container is a temperature warning indicator. |
|
Top coverDuring operation, the top cover should be placed on the container to close it. This prevents water splashing out of the PVA Removal Station.
|
|
Rinsing basketDuring the cleaning process, printed objects are placed in the rinsing basket. This ensures that the objects are kept fully submerged and away from the turning rotor. The rinsing basket has an inner divider to restrict movement of the printed part.
|
|
RotorThe magnetic rotor is placed at the bottom of the container. During the cleaning process, the rotor will turn to enable water flow. There are two rotor speeds: Normal and Low. The rotor will automatically change direction during operation to optimize dissolving speeds. The rotor also contains a saturation indicator to help determine when the water must be refreshed. |
|
Rotor bearing ringThe rotor bearing ring is placed under the rotor. This reduces wear on the rotor and increases the component’s lifespan. The ring is a consumable part; extra rotor bearing rings are supplied with the PVA Removal Station.

InterfaceThe simple but elegant interface has two buttons and three small LEDs. Turn the PVA Removal Station on and off with the power button on the left. The button on the right side sets the rotor speed (Normal, Low, or paused). The interface also controls the container illumination and indicates error states.

|
PVA scratch toolThe PVA scratch tool can be used to remove larger chunks of softened PVA support material. This can drastically reduce cleaning time and water saturation levels. The scratch tool can be clicked into the top cover when not in use. |
