Vacuum Pump Selector Guide Vertical Scale: Locate the desired vacuum level in inches of mercury Intersection of Scales: The box where the two lines intersect contains the possible pumps for selected pressure and capacity. Horizontal Scale: Calculate and locate the required capacity in cubic feet per minute or cubic meters per hour based on system volume, pump down time, gas load, and leakage. *1 Torr = 1mm mercury absolute pressure To convert inches of mercury vacuum to Torr: Please consult your Tuthill sales representative for Torr = (30 - inches of vacuum) x 25.4 at sea level e.g.,...
