Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the advantage of a chemistry hybrid pump like the RC 6?
The chemistry hybrid pump integrates a diaphragm pump that continuously evacuates the oil reservoir of the rotary vane pump, preventing the condensation of corrosive vapors and significantly extending the time between oil changes.
2. How often should I perform maintenance on my rotary vane pump?
Maintenance intervals depend on the application, but using genuine Vacuubrand maintenance kits for sealing and regular oil checks is essential for preventing vacuum loss and internal corrosion.
3. Are these pumps suitable for freeze drying?
Yes, two-stage rotary vane pumps like the RZ 6 series are designed to achieve the deep ultimate vacuum levels (down to the 10-3 mbar range) required for effective freeze-drying processes.
4. Can I buy replacement seals and service kits separately?
Absolutely. We stock specific service and sealing kits for Vacuubrand models, ensuring you can perform routine maintenance and keep your equipment running at peak performance.
