Industrial Applications

Industrial vacuum pump applications make up the majority of rough and medium vacuum processes and include applications in the plastics, automotive, electronics, glass, wood, rubber, printing, chemical, aerospace, and metal industries. Vacuum Impregnation is an advanced modern porosity sealing technique that seals leaks in castings and metal parts such as gas valves, gear housings, transmission cases, electronic housings, transformer windings, chrome plated marine parts, computer parts in super clean systems and refrigeration and air conditioning parts. The process involves placing the parts into a vacuum chamber where it is pumped down to at least 4mm to open the pores of the material, the impregnating resin is then added and absorbs into the pores, the use of compression may be used to aid the absorption process. The Onyxx Single Stage Viper series pumps are ideal for impregnation applications featuring a small compact design, fast evacuation times and pressures to .5mm. Add a vacuum capsule gauge and liquid separator to prevent the potential of a process upset and your pump is completely protected.
