Vacuum Pumps

What Is Conductance And Why Does It Matter?

Any liquid will flow to fill any container with sufficient room. Fluids move everywhere, and things can’t stop them. The speed at which a liquid shifts from one container to another is often compared to the rate at which water would flow through a maze as if a go-through-the-maze or follow-the-trail game. This movement of fluid is measured by conductance — how easily the fluid forms and follows pathways through the maze.

Proper Cleaning of Vacuum Components

Clean surfaces are a must-have when dealing with a vacuum system and its accompanying technology. There’s a need to ensure that all impurities get removed from its surfaces. Their removal guarantees that they won’t desorb when exposed to vacuum conditions. If desorbed, they may accumulate on the vacuum pump or other similar components. In some cases, they could also produce gases that pollute the surrounding environment, making it difficult to breathe.

How To Select The Right Turbo Pump

Turbo pump selection is a critical decision for any vacuum process. The choice of the right vacuum pump will impact the performance and cost of your system. Choosing the wrong pump can lead to costly repairs, downtime, or even complete replacement of your entire system. This article discusses how you can make this important decision easier by following these ten steps.

Proper Handling of Vacuum Components

Industrial vacuum pumps make one of the greatest man’s inventions (invented in 1650), contributing immensely to the modernization of industrial processes in engineering, machinery, and equipment. But what is a vacuum pump? An industrial air pump machine creates a vacuum by sucking air and gas molecules from sealed compartments or containers.

Suggestions For Ensuring The Highest Performance Of Your Vacuum System

Here are a few tips to make sure your vacuum system is performing optimally. A faulty vacuum system could cause a production halt. This system is made up of several components that must all work together to ensure that the system functions properly. Vacuum systems are only as good as you take care of them. It is important to know the factors that affect the performance of your vacuum system.

Which Roughing Pump Is Right For My Application?

A roughing pump is a vacuum pump used to evacuate a vacuum system to achieve a high vacuum or ultra-high vacuum. The term roughing-pump is gotten from the range it operates in, 0.1 Pa. There are two categories of roughing pumps, dry and oil-sealed roughing pumps. There are different types of designs you can pick from the two categories.

Which High Vacuum Pump Is Right For My Application?

High Vacuum (HV) pumps offer many benefits to vacuum engineering applications. HV pumps use a pressurized system to remove gaseous substances or air out of a tank. The gaseous molecules are either discharged to another tank or into the ambient air. Here is how to select the right HV pump for your application.

What Is Outgassing And Why Must I Be Concerned With It?

Also known as off-gassing, outgassing is a term that has been dominating many household and industrial conversations. You may have heard it being associated with inefficient satellite equipment, poorly manufactured plastics and other items, poor industrial performance and high maintenance costs during the injection molding process or malfunctioning vacuum electronic equipment.

Wet Versus Dry Pumps

Vacuum pumps are critical for use in industrial, laboratory, and research applications. When making your decision, consider the flow rate, compression, elastic ability, pressure capacity, cost, and maintenance. Wet pumps and dry pumps both have particular features unique to their design. Learn more about them and you'll make the right choice that is perfect for your needs.

Considerations When Using Grease in a Vacuum System

There are many considerations when utilizing grease within a vacuum system. Often grease is used for the lubrication of o-rings, mechanical components, and in some cases to prevent corrosion. However, it is highly recommended to consider whether a grease is even necessary for each application. The presence of grease within a vacuum system can increase the gas load on the system and can be a source of collecting foreign debris.
