What is a Vacuum Pump?

Simply put, vacuum pumps are mechanical devices that remove air and gas molecules from a confined space to create a space devoid of air and/or gas. Their general purpose is to clean and seal. Vacuum pumps come in wet or dry specifications, depending on the medium being pumped through them.

What are the Vacuum Pump Types?

There are many different types of vacuum pumps, including aqueous vacuum pumps, single stage vacuum pumps, liquid ring vacuum pump, two stage vacuum pumps, high vacuum pump, oil seal vacuum pump, mono block vacuum pump and many more. Vacuum pump features may vary according to your business and needs.

What Does a Vacuum Pump Do? Where to use ?

Vacuum pumps have various applications such as Dehydrates and Filtration Processes, Sterilization, Vacuum Filtration Process, Distillation, Vacuum Concentration, Drying, Filtration Processes, Vacuum Metallurgy, Conveying, Evaporation, Deodorization Evacuation, Vacuum Feeding, Moisture Extraction, Cryogenic, mineral enrichment. , degassing, ash treatment and much more. Different types of Vacuum pumps are used according to the application need. A liquid ring vacuum pump is used in the paper industry to remove pulp from water in paper processing.

How Does a Vacuum Pump Work?

A vacuum is a substance-free space where the gas pressure in this volume is below atmospheric pressure. The main function of a vacuum pump is to mechanically or chemically change the pressure in a confined space to create a full or partial vacuum. As the gas molecules flow from high to low to fill the entire area of this volume, the pressure will always try to equalize between the connected regions. Therefore, if a new low-pressure area is introduced, gas will naturally flow from the high-pressure area to the new low-pressure area to equal pressure. Note that this vacuum process is created by pushing molecules, not by "absorbing" gases. Vacuum pumps move gas molecules from one area to another to create a vacuum by alternating high and low pressure states.
