UV series vacuum pumps - Pneumofore - #1

Rotary Vane Vacuum Pumps

Since 1923 Pneumofore has designed and produced vacuum pumps featuring original solutions, the result of constant efforts in research and development.

Air cooling through an aluminum radiator and a temperature controlled fan.

Operation without cooling water avoids problems related to limestone, ambient temperature and unstable vacuum degree.

"Closed-loop" lubrication circuit ensures negligible coolant consumption.

Single-stage suction volumes from 250 m³/h to 3240 m³/h 99,95% maximum vacuum degree (0,5 mbar(a)) with performance curves constant up to 95%: the best achiev­able result by a single stage vacuum pump. Special aluminum alloy vanes provide active sealing according to the traditional Pneumofore feature and guarantee a stable performance even after years of operation, avoiding efficiency loss and minimizing cost of operation and maintenance.

Reduced electric energy consumption when compared to liquid ring pumps with same nominal capacity. "Plug and play" pumps, easy to install and integrate. Variable speed option for operation 35 to 60 Hz and

constant flow and/or vacuum level.

• Intake air filter with polyester cartridge (3 urn).

• Coolant filter cartridge for lubrication circuit.

• Coolant separator and coolant recovery for air delivery. No coolant vapors.

• Cylinder-integrated non return valve avoids air and coolant backflow.

• Direct coupling between cylinder and electric motor.

• Limited footprint - soundproof [75 dB(A)] - cabin, no foundations required.

• Fully automatic operation: coolant temperature control, auxiliary control switches, safety vacuum gauge, system alarms and motorized suction valve.

• Control panel with vacuum gauge, coolant separator cartridge pressure drop indicator, hour meter, active circuits control warning light, manual security button and key starter.

• Very low maintenance cost thanks to design simplicity and to few moving parts subject to wear.

• Vertical layout (for UV4, UV8 and UV16) for space economy.

• CE marking as per European Safety Regulation.
