Product catalog summary
Applications
The BOOSTERS are versatile devices used in vacuum applications, particularly effective when paired with primary vacuum pumps like rotary vane pumps. They are ideal for achieving high pumping speeds at low pressures. An ATEX version is available upon request for environments requiring explosion protection.

Operating Principles
The BOOSTERS operate by creating a progressively growing space during rotation, corresponding to the suction stage, which is then compressed. This cycle repeats four times per complete rotation of the drive shaft.

Characteristics of RB21.20BP and RB22.20 BP
These models feature a built-in by-pass valve that prevents motor overload by recycling part of the gas flow when maximum differential pressure is exceeded. This system allows simultaneous start-up of the BOOSTER and primary pump at atmospheric pressure, reducing pumping time and protecting against accidental pressure increases. These pumps are designed for vertical operation.

General Details on BOOSTERS
The BOOSTERS are positive displacement delivery pumps with two symmetrical pistons rotating in opposite directions without contact. The pistons are driven by synchronized gears, ensuring friction-free movement.

Construction Characteristics
The BOOSTERS' drive shaft is directly driven by the motor shaft via an elastic coupling, with seals made of VITON elastomer. A cooling chamber is included to manage heat from the seals. The RB type is equipped with an AC three-phase motor and can be supplied with a free drive shaft.

Technical Specifications

Two symmetrical pistons having en eight feature, housed in the pump body, rotate in opposite directions with no contact neither between each other nor with the pump body, meshing continuously. The pistons are driven by a set of gears with synchronised rotation, which guarantees friction-free movement. Applications The BOOSTERS have a wide range of applications in the field of vacuum. They are prefe-rably used in combination with a primary vacuum pump (rotary vane vacuum pumps, etc..) and have a very extensive application in the field of low vacuum. The use of BOOSTERS, forming a group with primary pumps, being especially recommended where high pumping speeds at low pressure are required. Operating principles During rotation, a progressively growing space is created which corresponds to the suction stage : phase 1 and 2, being gradually decreased phase 3 and 4, compressing the volume of gas. This cycle is repeated four times per each complete rotation of the drive shaft. Characteristics of RB21.20BP and RB22.20 BP version The built-in valve of by-pass is an unloading valve which allows communication between inlet and outlet of the BOOSTER when the acceptable maximum differential pressure is exceeded. A part of the gas flow is then recycled and the electric motor does not have an overload. The device allows simultaneously the BOOSTER and the primary pump starts-up at the atmospheric pressure and to reduce the time of pumping. This system puts also the BOOSTER safe from accidental gone up of pressure. Those pumps are provided for a vertical operation.
