Busch Vacuum Solutions Introduces New Intelligent Claw Vacuum Pump

One of the most effective ways to improve the energy efficiency of a vacuum system is to ensure that the operating capacity of the vacuum pump is aligned with the actual needs of the process. A vacuum pump that runs at full speed when the process demand is low wastes energy and can cause unnecessary wear on equipment, reducing service life. By implementing intelligent control systems and variable speed drives (VSD), energy consumption can be significantly cut, leading to lower operating costs and a reduced carbon footprint.

Clean technologies are of particular importance in vacuum technology – because they are economically advantageous and environmentally friendly. With this in mind, Atlas Copco has developed the DZS 600 VSD+ and DZS 1200 VSD+. The dry, oil-free claw pumps are powerful, energy-efficient and easy to control and maintain.

Drawing on expert interviews conducted as part of the UK Government’s Post-Implementation Review of the Ecodesign Regulations for Electric Motors and Variable Speed Drives, Thomas Marks, Director General at the Association of Electrical and Mechanical Trades, outlines why an automatic motor upgrade might be missing the point, and explains what your alternative options are.

Busch Vacuum Solutions – a member of the global Busch Group – presents the new TYR PLUS, an intelligent addition to the latest generation of the TYR family of rotary lobe blowers. An integrated variable speed drive allows reduced energy consumption and lower operating costs for wastewater treatment, pneumatic conveying systems, and other industrial applications.

When it comes to industrial vacuum systems, efficiency is not just determined by the vacuum pump you choose. It is also shaped by how your vacuum supply is configured. This configuration defines how vacuum is generated, distributed, and matched to the actual requirements of the application. One of the most impactful changes a facility can make is to move from a decentral to a central vacuum supply.

The rhythmic whir of helicopter blades cuts through the cold North Sea air as Anders Kandborg, a service technician from Busch Denmark, prepares to land on a massive oil platform. Two hundred kilometers off the Danish coast, surrounded only by wind and waves, he begins a demanding service mission. His task: to ensure the reliable operation of a vacuum system from Busch Vacuum Solutions that is critical for the oil platform’s production process.
