New Generation of Chemically Resistant Rotary Vane Vacuum Pumps

The ASM HVM is designed for applications where clean operation, high sensitivity, and mobility are essential. It ensures reliable helium leak testing for both spraying and sniffing applications, making it particularly well-suited for medium test volumes in semiconductor manufacturing, research and development, and industrial environments.

In vacuum technology, precision and reliability are critical. Whatever the application, vacuum equipment must always provide the same level of performance in order to produce consistent results. Non-genuine components may look the same as genuine parts, but their inconsistent quality can reduce efficiency, compromise reliability, and increase total cost-of-ownership. This article explains how genuine spare parts and oil preserve vacuum pump efficiency, reliability and performance, and outlines the risks of substandard substitutes.

Vacuum pumps are essential to many manufacturing and processing applications, but they are also a source of heat. While modern vacuum pumps are efficient and minimize this heat loss, a certain amount of heat generation is a natural by-product of vacuum generation that can never be completely avoided. Traditionally, much of this heat is allowed to dissipate into the surrounding environment.

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.

Industrial operations are facing increasing challenges from new regulatory requirements – especially when dealing with potentially explosive atmospheres. Air Liquide Austria GmbH, a leading provider of technical and medical gases based in Schwechat near Vienna, meets these requirements with a specially developed vacuum pump from Busch Vacuum Solutions.
