Description

Welch, Dry, Oil Free Vacuum Pump featuring WOB-L technology. This particular model number is 2581C-56. The free air flow rate is 3.5 CFM and the ultimate vacuum rating is 5 Torr or (29.7 inHg of Vacuum). This Pump comes with a power cord and a user manual. This is a very popular vacuum pump among laboratories, educational institutions, pharma, and biotech industries due to the fact that this pump is low maintenance and and oil free (dry) which can be used in indoor and closed rooms and environments without the risk of oil contamination. It does not come with connection hardware you will need to connect this vacuum pump your vacuum system. The Intake Port Thread of this pump is a 1/4 inch FNPT. Connected to this Intake port is a barb hose fitting for the 3/16 inch ID vacuum hose. To connect this pump to you vacuum system, you have two choices:

1. You can either connect a reinforce vinyl hose with 3/16 ID to the already present Barb Fitting.

2. You can unscrew the Barb Fitting and screw on your own fitting. Sometimes going from 3/16 inch ID hose to 1/4 inch ID hose will decrease your pump-down times by a factor of about 1.5.

Our clients prefer to work with us because we are Experts in Vacuum Science and Technology. What are you building? Take a look at the links below and discover some of the cool things we make.

Altitude Simulation Systems
Altitude simulation systems are devices that simulate a certain altitude equivalent by controlling the vacuum inside a vacuum chamber. Altitude is a function of absolute pressure, therefore if a certain pressure is accomplished inside a vacuum chamber, a specific altitude can be simulated from the set pressure. Altitude simulation systems can be configured to not only hold a certain pressure, a complete pressure vs time profile can be programmed to be run. Furthermore, pressure vs time recipes can be loaded and run based on test requirements.
Micro-D Vacuum Feedthroughs
Micro D Vacuum Feedthroughs are Micro D connectors rated for vacuum and are generally installed on the vacuum chamber wall. You can then connect from the outside to the inside of your chamber.
Our Work: Nuclear Imaging Research using Acrylic Vacuum Chamber
Nuclear imaging is quickly becoming more and more sophisticated and images unimaginable twenty years ago are become reality – think about the recent image of a single atom. Nuclear imaging is detection is a highly technological field.
Related Articles: High Altitude Package Testing utilizing an Acrylic Vac Chamber
An Acrylic Vacuum Chamber can be used to simulate elevation very reliably to altitudes up to 60.9 km or 200,000 feet. This provides several advantages over other testing methods as acrylic is transparent and enables full view of interior during testing. In this article, we will give you a through guide on what can be done to eliminate the risk of packaging damage during shipments at high altitudes.
