Interesting. I wonder how that little box converts pressure to vacuum.

It works off a venturi system using an air comressor to create a low pressure from the venturi - That means you have to have a large enough air compressor to run it and it is very noisy as well.
I am not sure is it adjustable or is all depending on your air compressor pressures ?
I do not see any type of valve to release the vacuum.

One of the components of that “little box” is a Vacuum Ejector that is specially designed for wine degassing.

Vacuum Ejectors were invented back in 1858, by a Frenchman, Henri Giffard:

they have been used mostly in big machines, such as continuous train braking systems.

Winecuum Wine Degassers are specially designed to work with small portable air compressors to convert pressure into vacuum.
