Vacuum pumps: low power makes the difference
Air or steam ejectors seem to offer a cheap and simple alternative to a vacuum pump, but be careful: they're one example of how the UK's Climate Change levy changes economic balances
Designed for commercial vacuum packaging plants, Rietschle's vacuum pump/rotary lobe booster sets deliver up to 4,300m3/h of clean vacuum, from 500 to 2000m3/h.
They offer minimum downtime with up to 2000 hours between oil changes.
Together with their 'evergreen' trim removal units, these industry standard pump sets are the basis for Rietschle's position as a leading vacuum supplier to the food packaging industry.
For OEMs, the modest 'footprint' (410mm x 236mm x 166mm) of the oil-flooded rotary vane VCB, makes it ideal for small vacuum packaging machines.
The popular Vacfox range features an innovative oil exhaust system, and a unique, five-year warranty on rotor blades.
The latest Vacfox addition is a quiet-running, 60db(A) design, whose ultimate vacuum can be user-selected at either 2 or 10mbar (abs.) Designed for the food packaging hall environment, the Vacfox VC range has an efficient oil separation system that re-circulates entrained oil droplets to prevent oil loss.
