The roughing pump shoulders the critical task of extracting 99.95% of the air from the system,
paving the way for the high vacuum pump to operate optimally within its specified parameters.
As an indispensable element in any system, maintaining the roughing pump's peak performance is imperative.
Rotary Vane Pumps
The operation of an oil-sealed vacuum pump relies on a rotary vane design housed within a chamber partially filled with oil.
As the eccentrically mounted rotor rotates, it alternately expands and compresses the volume within the chamber, drawing in air or gas
during the intake stroke and expelling it through the outlet valve during compression. The oil acts as both a sealing medium and a lubricant,
preventing backflow while reducing friction and dissipating heat generated during compression. This continuous cycle maintains a vacuum in the
connected system, making oil-sealed vacuum pumps reliable for various applications, including laboratory and industrial coating processes.
As with all complex mechanical assemblies, regular maintenance by skilled technicians using high quality parts will ensure optimal performance,
longevity and reduced cost of ownership.
