Transfer Tubing
3/8" ID tubing: LVL to condenser. 
1/4" ID tubing: Condenser to RVL. 
!! tubing has 125F temp limit under vacuum. If run too hot, it will collapse and replacement tubing will be necessary.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
For the base set to run it requires an appropriate heat source and vacuum source. DO NOT use without understanding what heat and vacuum sources are appropriate. The IH Heating Unit and Diaphragmatic Vacuum Pump offered by Torr Kitchen were specially customized to work with this set.
