Maintenance of Vacuum Pumps

A systematic maintenance and servicing of vacuum pumps helps to prevent breakdowns in production and improves the availability of the system.

Requirements

The final pressure reached and the pump-down curve of the vacuum pump are required for diagnosis and to carry out maintenance work. These factors provide crucial information about the condition and performance of the pump.

Suitable Products

VSP: The processor controlled VSP Pirani vacuum transducer with robust helix filament is ideal for precise measurements in the fine vacuum range.

VSM: In the VSM digital vacuum transducer, a combination of Pirani and cold cathode sensor measures absolute pressure from atmosphere to ultra-high vacuum. Thanks to the optional display, the current pressure can be checked directly and easily on all Smartline transmitters.

VD85: Via its wide-range combination sensor, the VD85 vacuum meter is capable of capturing the minimum pressure of many pump types like diaphragm, scroll or rotary vane pumps. In addition, the device measures and – on demand - records the complete pump-down cycle from atmospheric pressure to end pressure. In this case, the vacuum meter works as a data logger saving the measurements in its internal data memory. Via USB interface the data can then be transmitted to a PC for further analysis and documentation

VD850: The Piezo/Pirani vacuum meter with extended functions and features. A large display shows current measurement values and pressure graphs and enables convenient menu navigation with the 4+1 membrane keypad. The digital VD850 with integrated data logger and USB-C interface measures absolute and relative pressure over seven decades in the rough and fine vacuum range. Its high resolution and measurement accuracy over the entire range make it ideal for the maintenance and inspection of vacuum pumps and systems.
