Vacuum pumps require low air pressure

A line of compact, multi-stage venturi vacuum pumps that need only 45 psi air pressure, but provide the same holding capacity as conventional pumps requiring 80 to 100 psi, has been introduced by US-based air pump specialist Anver Corp.

Anver's Air-Miser MSP-AM series multi-stage air-driven vacuum pumps are now offered in five sizes from 0.06 to 0.64 SCFM and operate at 45 psi (3.1 bar) air pressure, about half that of conventional venturi-style pumps, the company says,.

The pumps are made of anodized aluminium, have brass nozzles, and can be supplied with a wide range of options to meet specific application requirements. They are suitable for a variety of automation applications. Anver says that the pumps provide a 100% duty cycle and equal the performance of much larger pumps, while being safer and quieter than conventional venturi-style pumps. They measure 3.78 in L x 1.26 in W x 98 in H (96 mm x 32 mm x 24.9 mm), include a 2.76 in tall x 2.76 in W (70 mm x 24 mm) muffler and are offered with adapters for G to NPT attachment.
