Laboratory vacuum pump ME 16C NT +EK

diaphragmoil-free

Overview

• Outstanding chemical resistance and superior vapour tolerance
• Very high pumping speed even at low vacuum levels
• Compact design
• Whisper-quiet operation and very low vibration
• Environmentally friendly with efficient solvent recovery via EK condenser

Product description
Chemistry diaphragm pumps of the NT design provide continuous, oil-free pumping of corrosive gases and vapours. The single-stage architecture combines high pumping speed with an ultimate vacuum down to 70 mbar. All wetted parts are made of chemically resistant fluoroplastics. PTFE sandwich diaphragms increase reliability and service life. The eight-head ME 16C NT delivers high performance in a compact footprint. Fitted with an exhaust vapour condenser (EK), the ME 16C NT +EK enables efficient solvent recovery and reduced emissions. NT eight-head pumps feature quiet operation and smooth, easily cleaned surfaces.
