As with any equipment within an organisation in the manufacturing industry, it is vital to compare recognise that cost isn’t always the most important aspect of your purchase of an Industrial Vacuum. Often the procurement person may well source the most cost-effective equipment, without basic understanding of the product’s requirements in the workplace, over-looking the fact that cheaper can also equate to less productive in certain instances. It is always best to compare apples to apples, so to speak, in terms of spec of your items and be mindful that cost is not always the most important factor.

Industrial Vacuums are required for a variety of heavy-duty processing methods for various applications in manufacturing. While the technology behind the standard vacuum pump has not changed significantly since its inception, conversely the quality of the equipment has!

Initially named the “water ring pump” the liquid ring vacuum pump is used for creating vacuum in moist gases and vapours. Typically utilised in the chemical industry, liquid ring vacuums, like many other vacuum systems, operate on the principle of positive displacement of liquid, channelling the liquid in a piston-like fashion to achieve displacement. Operating a relatively low temperatures liquid ring vacuum pumps are ideal for the condensation of vapours essentially allowing them to function, in part, as condensers, drastically reducing volume. Adaptable in that they are able to fit the medium which is being pumped, the liquid ring pump offers excellent benefits in that the lower operational temperatures, allows for the successful for the pumping of polymers which are especially temperature sensitive and prove to be far less problematic when involved in the pumping of the more volatile materials.

IBS liquid ring vacuum pumps range include the following sizes:

– RVS 3÷16 /M directly coupled to the flange of an electric motor and the impeller is supported by the electric motor standard bearings;
