Clearance: Amerivacs CAVN-20 Vacuum Sealer

This is a new, unused item of a discontinued model. Please check the table below to see how we rate our clearance items. 

Note: The product images on this page are of a new item, with the exception of any images marked “Clearance item”.

This Amerivacs is an older model of the CAVN-20 series.

AmeriVacs CAVN Series commercial external vacuum sealers provide the versatility to seal bags up to 20" wide. The design is simple and easy to use, and construction and materials are of the highest quality for trouble-free operation and a long service life even in steady commercial use.

Self-contained design: CAVN sealers include built-in compressors to operate the vacuum sealing pump. Thus a separate air supply is NOT required with these models. Electrical components operate on 120VAC.

Nitrogen purge: The CAVN includes the nitrogen purge option (and it can also operate w/o nitrogen purge). Nitrogen purge allows crush-free sealing in an oxygen-free atmosphere. Operating the CAVN with nitrogen purge requires bottled nitrogen (not included.)

Product applications: AmeriVacs external sealers are ideal for sealing all dry and particle-free products. They are not suitable for wet materials, including most foods. Because AmeriVacs sealers do not use a sealing chamber, bags of any length can be used, so these machines are ideal for sealing a range of product including very large items. AmeriVacs vacuum sealers have automatically-retracting air extraction nozzles which allow them to use economical smooth-sided plastic bags, rather than the more expensive embossed bags required by machines designed for low-volume operation. This saves you a lot of money over the long term.

Additional notes: 

  1. The ratings are for cosmetic condition only. All Clearance Store merchandise is guaranteed to function perfectly. 
  2. Items are offered under normal terms of sale: Please review policies before ordering. 
  3. Some clearance items ship in plain (but carefully boxed) packaging, rather than the manufacturer’s original carton. 
  4. Important: All clearance items may have been exposed to various allergenic foods. 

Bottom Line: If you’re a highly detail-oriented person, we recommend sticking to “R1.” But after a week’s use, the only real difference between one of these items and a brand new one will be the money you saved.

Well satisfied
By Timothy R., OR on 6/15/2017 Verified Buyer

We're really happy with our AmeriVacs CAVN sealer. It's fast and easy to use, and with its solid construction, should last for years. The vacuum sealed bags keep our medical product safe from outside air and moisture and prevent any chance of contamination.
