What Should I Do If There Is Oil in the Chamber of My Harvest Right Freeze Dryer?

If you notice oil in the chamber of your Harvest Right freeze dryer, follow these steps to resolve the issue:

1. Check Pump Placement

  • Ensure the pump is on a flat, stable surface.
  • Make sure the pump is at or below the level of the Freeze Dryer to prevent oil from being drawn into the vacuum line.

  • Remove and disconnect the Shelving Unit from the Freeze Dryer.
  • Clean all of the surfaces of the chamber with a solution of water and mild detergent.
  • Ensure that the chamber is fully dry before reconnecting the Shelving Unit.
