Plumbing and Drainage
The BASE includes 3 plumbing ports on the back of the machine.
- FILL: auto-fills the chamber with fresh water. This function will typically be used for cleaning the machine periodically.
- DOSE: auto-doses the chamber with a ratio of water and detergent. The detergent is dosed into the machine via a DOSATRON® (included) manifold from 5-gallon buckets.
- DRAIN: drains the chamber.

Ventilation
PostProcess Technologies detergents are specifically formulated for maximized 3D printed support efficiency. Specific ventilation requirements can vary widely due to the local, state, and federal regulations, size of the install room, and existing ventilation (positive or negative).
To meet safety and environmental requirements, it is required that the post printing operations using PostProcess equipment and chemistry solutions have ventilation that is exhausted. Make up air should be provided from the facility where the equipment was located.
It is recommended that customers performing post printing operations have or consult with a responsible environmental health and safety person (such as an Industrial Hygienist) to determine and verify meeting environmental, health, and safety (EH&S) requirements.
PostProcess can provide the recommended ventilation requirements for each of our solutions as well as recommendations for ventilation consultation and EH&S / Industrial Hygienists.
The BASE is equipped with two ventilation ducts at the top rear of the machine. The customer is responsible for providing any ventilation ductwork prior to installation. It is recommended that the equipment be located in a well-ventilated room. Connecting the blower exhaust to a ducted system to remove the exhaust from the room is required.
For more information on the safe use of PostProcess detergents refer to the SDS for the specific detergent used.
