Product Description
Working principle
The vacuum in dry screw pumps is created through 2 parallel-arranged screw rotors that rotate in opposite directions. These rotors trap the gas coming in through the inlet and deliver it to the gas discharge or pressure side. As the gas is getting compressed, there is no contact between the rotors. This does away with any need for the compression chamber to have any operating fluids or lubrication.
The lubricant used to lubricate the gears and shaft seal is sealed in the gearbox by the shaft seal. The pump can be cooled either directly by circulating cooling water or by a cooling unit with fan and radiator.
The dry screw vacuum pump adopts a special rotor pitch design, compared with the ordinary rotor pitch design, reduce the energy consumption by about 30%, the temperature rise of the exhaust end is reduced by about 100 ºC, the reliability and stability of the operation of the product is greatly improved, can be suitable for any working conditions of vacuum.

A CASE in a pharmaceutical factory
Process introduction:The penicillin sodium salt solution is fed into the crystallization tank through vacuum. By steam heating, agitator stirring, and adding butanol, the water and butanol in the penicillin solution are pumped into the condenser and condensed into the liquid collecting tank, which can be reused.
Process requirements:
1. The volume of crystallization tank is 7.5m3, and about 4.5m3 penicillin solution is added in the process.
2. Before entering the crystallization tank, the water content of penicillin solution is about 20%, and after crystallization, the water content is required to be about 1%.
3. Vacuum feeding for 2h, then adding butanol for 30min, and then starting to crystallize. The process requires low temperature and fast speed, and the lower the temperature, the better the quality of penicillin. The shorter the reaction time, the better.

Can Vacuum Pumps Be Used for Chemical Distillation?
Yes, vacuum pumps are commonly used in chemical distillation processes. Here’s a detailed explanation:
Chemical distillation is a technique used to separate or purify components of a mixture based on their different boiling points. The process involves heating the mixture to evaporate the desired component and then condensing the vapor to collect the purified substance. Vacuum pumps play a crucial role in chemical distillation by creating a reduced pressure environment, which lowers the boiling points of the components and enables distillation at lower temperatures.
Here are some key aspects of using vacuum pumps in chemical distillation:
1. Reduced Pressure: By creating a vacuum or low-pressure environment in the distillation apparatus, vacuum pumps lower the pressure inside the system. This reduction in pressure lowers the boiling points of the components, allowing distillation to occur at temperatures lower than their normal boiling points. This is particularly useful for heat-sensitive or high-boiling-point compounds that would decompose or become thermally degraded at higher temperatures.
2. Increased Boiling Point Separation: Vacuum distillation increases the separation between the boiling points of the components, making it easier to achieve a higher degree of purification. In regular atmospheric distillation, the boiling points of some components may overlap, leading to less effective separation. By operating under vacuum, the boiling points of the components are further apart, improving the selectivity and efficiency of the distillation process.
3. Energy Efficiency: Vacuum distillation can be more energy-efficient compared to distillation under atmospheric conditions. The reduced pressure lowers the required temperature for distillation, resulting in reduced energy consumption and lower operating costs. This is particularly advantageous when dealing with large-scale distillation processes or when distilling heat-sensitive compounds that require careful temperature control.
4. Types of Vacuum Pumps: Different types of vacuum pumps can be used in chemical distillation depending on the specific requirements of the process. Some commonly used vacuum pump types include:
– Rotary Vane Pumps: Rotary vane pumps are widely used in chemical distillation due to their ability to achieve moderate vacuum levels and handle various gases. They work by using rotating vanes to create chambers that expand and contract, enabling the pumping of gas or vapor.
– Diaphragm Pumps: Diaphragm pumps are suitable for smaller-scale distillation processes. They use a flexible diaphragm that moves up and down to create a vacuum and compress the gas or vapor. Diaphragm pumps are often oil-free, making them suitable for applications where avoiding oil contamination is essential.
– Liquid Ring Pumps: Liquid ring pumps can handle more demanding distillation processes and corrosive gases. They rely on a rotating liquid ring to create a seal and compress the gas or vapor. Liquid ring pumps are commonly used in chemical and petrochemical industries.
– Dry Screw Pumps: Dry screw pumps are suitable for high-vacuum distillation processes. They use intermeshing screws to compress and transport gas or vapor. Dry screw pumps are known for their high pumping speeds, low noise levels, and oil-free operation.
Overall, vacuum pumps are integral to chemical distillation processes as they create the necessary reduced pressure environment that enables distillation at lower temperatures. By using vacuum pumps, it is possible to achieve better separation, improve energy efficiency, and handle heat-sensitive compounds effectively. The choice of vacuum pump depends on factors such as the required vacuum level, the scale of the distillation process, and the nature of the compounds being distilled.
What Is the Purpose of a Vacuum Pump in an HVAC System?
In an HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) system, a vacuum pump serves a crucial purpose. Here’s a detailed explanation:
The purpose of a vacuum pump in an HVAC system is to remove air and moisture from the refrigerant lines and the system itself. HVAC systems, particularly those that rely on refrigeration, operate under specific pressure and temperature conditions to facilitate the transfer of heat. To ensure optimal performance and efficiency, it is essential to evacuate any non-condensable gases, air, and moisture from the system.
Here are the key reasons why a vacuum pump is used in an HVAC system:
1. Removing Moisture: Moisture can be present within an HVAC system due to various factors, such as system installation, leaks, or improper maintenance. When moisture combines with the refrigerant, it can cause issues like ice formation, reduced system efficiency, and potential damage to system components. A vacuum pump helps remove moisture by creating a low-pressure environment, which causes the moisture to boil and turn into vapor, effectively evacuating it from the system.
2. Eliminating Air and Non-Condensable Gases: Air and non-condensable gases, such as nitrogen or oxygen, can enter an HVAC system during installation, repair, or through leaks. These gases can hinder the refrigeration process, affect heat transfer, and decrease system performance. By using a vacuum pump, technicians can evacuate the air and non-condensable gases, ensuring that the system operates with the designed refrigerant and pressure levels.
3. Preparing for Refrigerant Charging: Prior to charging the HVAC system with refrigerant, it is crucial to create a vacuum to remove any contaminants and ensure the system is clean and ready for optimal refrigerant circulation. By evacuating the system with a vacuum pump, technicians ensure that the refrigerant enters a clean and controlled environment, reducing the risk of system malfunctions and improving overall efficiency.
4. Leak Detection: Vacuum pumps are also used in HVAC systems for leak detection purposes. After evacuating the system, technicians can monitor the pressure to check if it holds steady. A significant drop in pressure indicates the presence of leaks, enabling technicians to identify and repair them before charging the system with refrigerant.
In summary, a vacuum pump plays a vital role in an HVAC system by removing moisture, eliminating air and non-condensable gases, preparing the system for refrigerant charging, and aiding in leak detection. These functions help ensure optimal system performance, energy efficiency, and longevity, while also reducing the risk of system malfunctions and damage.
