Vacuum Boosters

Vacuum boosters are a critical component in enhancing vacuum pump performance, allowing for faster operation and achieving deeper vacuum levels. These devices are essential for applications that require high-capacity gas volumes at high vacuum, specifically in the 50 Torr to micron range. Vacuum boosters are versatile, capable of integration with all types of vacuum pumps, and are designed to operate at noise levels of 82 dB(A) or less in blank-off conditions, excluding motor and background noise.

Key Features and Construction

Vacuum boosters are constructed using robust materials to ensure durability and reliability in various industrial applications. The standard construction includes:

• Housing and End Plates: Made from cast iron.
• Port Fittings: Constructed from cast iron.
• Rotors and Shafts: Fabricated from ductile iron.

For specialized needs, vacuum boosters can be made from materials such as stainless steel, carbon steel, and Bi-Protec, catering to specific environmental and operational requirements.

Vacuum Booster Applications

Vacuum boosters are widely used across multiple industries, providing significant benefits in terms of efficiency and performance enhancement. Key applications include:

• Transformer Oil Drying: Enhancing the drying process by achieving lower moisture levels in transformer oils.
• Vacuum Furnaces: Improving the efficiency of vacuum furnaces used in various heat treatment processes.
• Vapor Coating: Facilitating the vapor deposition process by maintaining optimal vacuum conditions.
• Vacuum Packaging: Ensuring the integrity and longevity of packaged goods by providing a consistent vacuum.
• Vapor Recovery: Assisting in the recovery of valuable vapors in industrial processes.
• Chemical Processing: Enhancing the efficiency and safety of chemical manufacturing operations.
• Dryers and Evaporators: Improving the performance of drying and evaporation systems by providing higher vacuum levels.
