OverviewThe CRVpro 6 is a two-stage rotary vane vacuum pump engineered for low maintenance and consistent performance. It incorporates a gas ballast valve, forced oil lubrication, anti-suckback mechanism and thermal overload protection. Designed as a direct-drive unit, it is suitable for laboratory and light industrial vacuum service.
Key Benefits- Consumes up to 36% less oil than comparable pumps
- Operates up to 10°C cooler than comparable pumps, reducing corrosion risk
- 40% larger oil capacity than comparable pumps, helping to dilute aggressive chemicals
- Chemical-resistant coating in the oil case and pump module to protect non-moving parts
Typical Applications- Freeze drying (lyophilization)
- Vacuum ovens
- Schlenk lines
- Backing pumps for turbomolecular pumps
- Degassing
- Vessel/chamber evacuation
Performance Summary- Max pumping speed: 6 m3/h (100 l/min)
- Ultimate pressure (typical): 2x10-3 mbar
Notes- Direct-drive pumps are not recommended for filtration, aspiration, drying electrophoresis gels, or other applications requiring sustained operation above 30 torr.
