These powerful rotary vane pumps feature a particularly compact design and low weight for pumps of this capacity. They are the ideal solution for a wide range of laboratory and process applications that require low ultimate vacuum at medium to increased gas flow rate. The FO oil mist filter separates nearly 100% of oil mist at the ultimate vacuum of the pump.
Exhaust gases from oil-sealed rotary vane pumps always carry a certain quantity of oil mist. This is extremely unpleasant, and even harmful, for those working nearby. Rotary vane pumps are used when an ultimate vacuum between a few mbar and down to 10-3 mbar has to be attained. Typical applications are degassing, lyophilization, fine vacuum distillation and drying chambers.
