News vacuum solutions for the analytical market
Pfeiffer Vacuum set new standards with turbopumps
Pfeiffer Vacuum, the global leader in vacuum technology, will be participating in the Pittcon trade show in Chicago from March 3 – 6, 2014 and the analytica show in Munich from April 1 – 4, 2014. “We will be presenting important new vacuum solutions at the Pittcon and analytica shows. Our product developments set standards in long life and reliability throughout the vacuum sector. In the field of analytics, which requires analytical systems with greater sensitivity and reliability, Pfeiffer Vacuum sets the bar particularly high“, says Dr. Matthias Wiemer, Management Board member at Pfeiffer Vacuum Technology AG.
At Pittcon booth 1609 and booth A1.203 at the analytica show, visitors can talk to experts from Pfeiffer Vacuum about innovative product developments for use in laboratories, analytics and biotechnology. New SplitFlow™ turbopumps, where one single vacuum system is able to replace several pump systems, are just one example of what will be presented. A single SplitFlow turbopump is fitted with several pump stages that are connected in series, thereby replacing several separate turbopumps. This reduces the cost of the vacuum system. HiPace® turbopumps will also be exhibited at the tradeshow booth. The outstanding feature of these turbopumps is their unique rotor design with the proven hybrid bearing, which Pfeiffer Vacuum invented more than 30 years ago and has continually advanced ever since. These technical characteristics make for extremely high pumping speeds, high critical backing pressure and gas throughput, as well as very good compression for light gases. The turbopumps work particularly quietly and with only minimal vibration. In addition, Pfeiffer Vacuum will be introducing dry vacuum pumps and the concept of integrated pressure measurement.
“Particularly for our customers from modern analysis technology, the extended portfolio opens up additional opportunities, in terms of throughput and sensitivity for new developments of mass spectrometers“, explains Analytics market manager Jürgen Keller.
“As the market leader for turbopumps in the analytical market, Pfeiffer Vacuum already set new standards years ago with its HiPace turbopumps. These turbopumps are based on the unique Pfeiffer Vacuum hybrid bearing system. This combines maximum service life with particularly high pumping speeds and optimized compression values, particularly with light gases.”
As specialists for vacuum technology in the laboratory, and with more than 120 years’ experience, Pfeiffer Vacuum offers sophisticated and proven solutions for applications ranging from low vacuum right up to ultra-high vacuum. The use of modern vacuum technology creates extremely favorable measurement and analysis conditions.
