Source: russoequip.com (verified 2026-07-10) · corroborated by webstaurantstore.com. Exact model confirmed as the VacMaster SV1 across three fetched retailer pages: RussoEquip ("VacMaster SV1 Sous Vide Cooker" / "SV1 Immersion Circulator"), WebstaurantStore (MFR # SV-1, UPC 054202931037), and — for extra verification — Amazon's official Vacmaster Store (Model Number SV1, Part Number SV1, Manufacturer ARY Inc., UPC 054202931006, ASIN B00HFDPM6W). This is the original SV1, NOT the newer "SV1F" shown on the manufacturer's own vacmasterfresh.com, which returned HTTP 405 and could not be fetched. RussoEquip's distributor spec line supplies the verbatim values: "sous vide containers up to 7.9 gallons (30 liters), temperature range 77°F to 210°F ... adjustable mounting clamp, 12 volt circulation pump, 1500 watts heating, 120v/60/1-ph" → water_capacity_gal=7.9, max_temp_f=210 (99C), wattage_w=1500. The 1500 W rated input is corroborated by WebstaurantStore's spec table ("Wattage 1,500 Watts", "120V, 1,500W", "Amps 12.5" → 12.5 A x 120 V = 1500 W). connectivity="none" and app_control=false (no WiFi/Bluetooth/app on any page; Amazon "Not Smart Home Compatible", "Control Method Touch"); display="Digital display" (WebstaurantStore "Features Digital Display"; RussoEquip "digital control panel"); clamp_type="Adjustable clamp" (RussoEquip "adjustable mounting clamp"; WebstaurantStore "Adjustable clamp"). circulation_lph=null: no flow rate is published (the "12 volt circulation pump" figure is a voltage, not a flow rate). NOTED CONFLICTS: Amazon lists "Wattage 1000 watts" and VacMaster marketing copy reproduced by CentralRestaurant/ChefSupplies calls the circulation pump "1200 watts", but the rated electrical input (12.5 A x 120 V) plus two spec sources agree on 1500 W, so 1500 is used as rated input power; one Canadian retailer (ChefSupplies.ca) shows "15 liters (4 gallons)", contradicting the 30 L / 7.9-8 gal figure on RussoEquip, CentralRestaurant, WebstaurantStore and the official Amazon listing, so the majority 7.9 gal is used. priceUsd=199.99 from WebstaurantStore "$199.99 / Each"; the model is discontinued (WebstaurantStore "no longer available", CentralRestaurant "$238.38" out of stock, Amazon "Currently unavailable"), so this is a reference retail price rather than a live MSRP. No release year is stated on any fetched page, so releaseDate=null.
