Well-suited for use in all applications which require a dry and clean vacuum:
VARODRY Dry Vacuum Pumps are designed to replace older oil sealed vacuum pumps in industrial applications. The disadvantage of oil sealed vacuum pumps is that the water vapor and other contaminants from the process typically end up in the oil. Furthermore, oil degradation can lead to excessive pump wear which means the pump must be rebuilt more frequently or lose vacuum capability.
Non-Contacting Screw Technology with milled twin rotors to create vacuum with no particulate generation. To keep the design simple, the VARODRY screws are belt driven with a field serviceable belt. Ample air cooling eliminates utility costs and energy consumption. As a result, the VARODRY has a very low cost of operation compared to oil sealed vacuum pumps.
The VARODRY provides quick pump down. In addition, it tolerates atmospheric pressure shocks and repeated evacuation cycles.
Due to its optimized temperature profile & integrated gas-ballast, the VARODRY offers a high water vapor tolerance, avoiding internal condensation and corrosion.
Often vapors (ex. hydrocarbons) react inside hot dry pumps and cause build-up on internal screws which can cause the pump to seize. In the VARODRY, the temperatures are not high enough to cause this issue.
The VARODRY can handle liquid droplets or slugs as these flow freely through and outside the pump during normal operation.
The pumps screw design optimizes the pump’s ability to handle fine, dry dust particles without wear. In addition, a wide range of dust filters are available.
