The HiScroll models from vacuum pumps manufacturer Pfeiffer Vacuum’s new range of scroll pumps are oil-free, hermetically sealed vacuum pumps with high nominal pumping speeds of between 6 m3/h and 20 m3/h.

The new pumps are characterised by their compact design and quiet, low-vibration operation. Owing to the two-stage gas ballast, the vacuum pumps have excellent water vapour tolerance. As a result, condensation in the vacuum pump is avoided.

With these features, the pumps are ideal for use in many applications such as in analytics, biomedicine, pharmaceuticals as well as research and development. They are used in mass spectrometry, electron microscopy, surface analysis, accelerators and laboratory applications, but also in the semiconductor industry, coating processes and gas recovery.

The HiScroll’s active temperature control ensures optimal cooling and guarantees the lowest noise level.

“We are proud of the fact that our new scroll pumps have the lowest noise emissions in their class,” says Pfeiffer Vacuum analytics market manager Jürgen Keller.

Additionally, he adds that these dry pumps can also be easily connected to other Pfeiffer Vacuum products, such as turbopumps, or operated by higher-level controls through the RS-485 or ProfiNet interface.

“We drive sustainable solutions and help to reduce the environmental impact and carbon footprint with our new engine concept.”

Keller further explains that an intelligent interface makes it possible to define specific pressure ranges or a rotation speed setting mode, so that the pump can be optimally adapted to suit the application. This reduces wear in the pump resulting in a longer service life.

The proven quality of Pfeiffer Vacuum products with first-class, durable components also ensures a long service life as well as lower operating costs.

Meanwhile, he adds that the pumps are easy to maintain, which not only reduces the time to service but also ensures the highest level of reliability. The integrated safety valve and the self-regulating operation of the pump guarantee safe and reliable use.

The powerful motor is up to 15% more efficient than conventional drives. This ensures outstanding performance while keeping temperatures low, which, in turn, simplifies the cooling of systems and plants.

Owing to its close collaboration with its customers and the company’s continuous focus on their needs, Pfeiffer Vacuums is constantly optimising and expanding its portfolio. Therefore, it will always be able to provide its customers with the best possible solution for their particular use.

The company’s service programme extends from vacuum pumps through measurement and analysis equipment right up to complete vacuum systems.
