Oerlikon Leybold Scroll Pump 110-230 Volt AC, 50/60 Hz Single Phase

Many labs today are moving towards an oil free environment. This move has a number of strong supporters such as preventing backstreaming of oil into equipment, odors from the pump oil and well as the oil change and disposal of used oil itself. While there will always be the need for two stage mechanical pumps, some areas see an advantage of using a Scroll Pump.

The dry compressing of a Leybold SCROLLVAC SC-D pump operates on the principle of Archimedes spirals engaging each other. The vacuum is then created by reduction in volume of the trapped environment and compression of gases to a gas outlet.. SCROLLVAC pumps operate absolutely oil-free with a high effective pumping speed.

Of course, two stage mechanical pumps are less expensive and generally quieter in operation, but for those seeking an oil free lab, these pumps may be considered.
