These include:
- Extra light-weight – up to 40percent less weight than many common pumps, combined with unmatched compact design. These vacuum pumps are genuinely ‘portable’.
- Extra low determined in the new Vacuubrand sound lab.
- Extra energy-saving – up to 25percent at ultimate vacuum.
- Extra user-friendly – up to 20percent less parts for regular maintenance.
A new lubrication circuit offers enhanced life of wear parts and oil. The new pump module design meets important criteria for daily laboratory work: long service intervals, ease of maintenance and low noise level.
Anti-corrosion design is a significant feature for laboratory use. Important inner surfaces are ground and plasma treated.
A new motor layout provides an outstandingly reduced current draw.
High vapour tolerance for water and solvents is provided by gas ballast of about 10percent of pumping capacity. A good ultimate vacuum can be obtained even under gas ballast operation.
The new Vacuubrand rotary vane pumps XS are designed for a process vacuum from several mbar down to the 10-3mbar range.
