Laboratory vacuum pump ME 16C NT

diaphragmoil-free

Overview

• Outstanding chemical resistance and superior vapor tolerance
• Very high pumping speed even at low vacuum levels
• Compact construction with smooth, easy-to-clean surfaces
• Quiet operation and very low vibration
• Long diaphragm life; maintenance-free drive

Product description
Chemistry diaphragm pumps of the NT design provide oil-free, continuous pumping of corrosive gases and vapors. The single-stage construction combines high pumping speed with a low ultimate vacuum (down to 70 mbar). All wetted parts are made from chemically resistant fluoroplastics. Proven PTFE sandwich diaphragms increase reliability and extend service life. The eight-head ME 16C NT delivers particularly high performance in a compact footprint. Accessories such as an inlet separator (AK) for pump protection and an exhaust vapour condenser (EK) for solvent recovery can be mounted later if required.
