  • Dry, contact-free operation without chamber lubricantsThe compression chamber operates without oil or grease. Lubrication is limited to the gearbox and bearings, which are separate from the chamber.
  • Integrated bypass valveThe built-in bypass valve enables safe start-up with a backing pump and prevents motor overload at high pressure differences.
  • Standard connection layout, version 01Different connection layouts are available in versions 01–04; version 01 is the standard configuration.
  • Industrial electric motorThe flange-mounted electric motor complies with DIN EN 60034 and has IP55 protection and class F insulation.

Benefits

Dry, contact-free operation

R-VWP vacuum pumps operate without internal contact and without lubricants in the compression chamber, providing clean operation without process contamination and minimal wear.

Reliable rough and fine vacuum range

They suit a wide range of rough- and fine-vacuum applications and are normally used with a backing pump to reach the required fore-vacuum.

Resistant to water vapor and aggressive gases

The construction supports effective pumping of gases and vapors, including water vapor and most corrosive media.

High volumetric flow

The R-VWP series covers high pumping speeds, making it ideal for process applications with demanding flow requirements.

Integrated bypass valve for safe start-up

The integrated bypass valve enables start-up with a backing pump and prevents motor overload at high pressure differences.

Robust industrial design

Separate oil lubrication for bearings and gears, stable construction and service-friendly design provide long service life in demanding industrial environments.
