New dry rotary vane vacuum pumps from Atlas Copco
The result is that the DVS models are oil-free, dry rotary vane pumps that guarantee emission-free, quiet operation and do not contaminate the processes.
"This makes them ideally suited for a wide range of applications, and they are used in packaging and pneumatic conveying processes, medical systems and analytical equipment, as well as in Pick and place for several automated industries," Atlas Copco's product manager Carol Pignatelli said.
The dry rotary vane pumps offer their users specific advantages.
The DVS models are quiet, low-wear and energy-saving and take up very little space. They are predestined for applications in which high efficiency must be achieved at competitive costs.
This is achieved on the one hand by the proven functional principle of the rotary vane pump and on the other hand by the use of robust materials.
For example, a rotor with graphite blades rotates inside the DVS pumps.
The centrifugal forces press the vanes against the inside of the housing wall and hermetically seal the chamber for a safe, uninterrupted operating vacuum. "Thanks to the high-quality graphite alloy, the vacuum can be generated with minimal friction losses,” added Pignatelli.
