Rotary vane pump

A rotary vane pump is a positive-displacement pump that consists of vanes mounted to a rotor that rotates inside of a cavity. In some cases these vanes can be variable length and/or tensioned to maintain contact with the walls as the pump rotates The functional principle of the rotary vane pumps The pump principle of the rotary vane pumps is based on a continual, cyclical change in the suction volume. This is made possible through a rotor eccentrically aligned to the pump housing with movable vanes. The required sealing function is guaranteed through the oil. The rotary vane pumps are offered in two configurations. Pumps with a single stage pump system (Pascal, HenaLine and UnoLine Plus) cover an inlet pressure range of 1000 to approx. 0.5 mbar; those with a two stage serial pump system (DuoLine, Pascal and PentaLine) have an expanded inlet pressure range in high vacuum of up to 0.005 mbar.

Advantages

Single and two stage designs with pumping speeds of 1.3 to 1,000 m3/h offer maximum flexibility when selecting for the process Space saving and ideal for system integration High pumping speed with small dimensions High reliability through pressure oil lubrication of the bearing Process-safe through integrated high vacuum safety valve Non-ferrous metal free design offers additional operating safety Optionally as corrosive gas version as well

Applications

All applications in low and medium vacuum Backing pump for turbopumps and roots pumps General laboratory applications Analytics Chemical laboratory Freeze drying Process engineering
