Vacuum Pumps

About

Amscope offers a selection of vacuum pumps designed to meet various laboratory needs, particularly in applications requiring chemical resistance and efficient vacuum generation. Key Features: Chemical Resistance: Constructed with PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) components, these pumps are resistant to acids, alkalis, and organic vapors, making them suitable for handling corrosive substances. Oil-Free Operation: The diaphragm-based design eliminates the need for oil, reducing maintenance requirements and preventing contamination of samples. Compact and Quiet: Designed to occupy minimal bench space, these pumps operate at low noise levels (around 50 dB), enhancing the laboratory environment. Versatile Applications: Ideal for use with rotary evaporators, gel drying, blotting after electrophoresis, centrifugal evaporation, solid-phase extraction (SPE), and various filtration tasks. Product Example: Scilogex 400 PTFE Chemical Resistant Vacuum Pump: Maximum Vacuum: 600 mm Hg (79 kPa) Maximum Flow Rate: 38 liters per minute Power Consumption: 90 Watts Noise Level: 50 dB Dimensions: 11 x 4 x 8 inches Weight: 15 lbs (7 kg) Features: Acid, alkali, and organic vapor resistance; compact size; low noise level; suitable for various filtration applications These vacuum pumps are essential tools for laboratories requiring reliable and efficient vacuum sources, especially when dealing with chemically aggressive substances. Their oil-free operation and chemical resistance make them suitable for a wide range of applications, ensuring both performance and safety in the laboratory environment.
