website maker With the TURBOVAC MAG 2807 iS and 3207 iS Maglev, Leybold is launching two new, compact turbomolecular pumps in the pumping speed class of 3,000 litres per second.
Equipped with magnetic rotor bearings, these highly robust, low vibration pumps are ideal for clean, hydrocarbon free, high vacuum conditions. They are well-suited for applications in research and development and industrial fields such as coating, electron beam processes, space simulation chambers and beamline applications.
“The exceptional performance of the vacuum pumps is due to their compact design and extended maintenance intervals,” explained Jinane Haddad, the responsible Product Manager, summarizing important features of the TURBOVAC MAG iS series.
Maintenance intervals of up to 80,000 hours or 10,000 cycles. In addition to these attributes, the vacuum specialists at Leybold placed great emphasis on the ratio of maximum pumping speed to footprint during development. The TURBOVAC MAG iS delivers excellent performance values in terms of pumping speed and gas throughput – with speeds of up to 3,200 litres per second, at a maximum throughput of 26 and 33 mbar litres per second for Ar and N2 respectively.
An important feature that sets the TURBOVAC MAG iS apart from comparable competitor products is its universal range of applications: the turbomolecular pump’s weight of less than 60 kilograms is a key factor here – a figure that makes it one of the lightest pumps in its size class.
Jinane Haddad emphasized another fundamental advantage, especially for the target group, “It can be installed in almost any position. It is precisely this feature that makes these innovations from Leybold the ideal high vacuum pump for working environments where space is limited and flexibility is required.”
With an innovative pump and bearing design, these pumps are tailored for sensitive applications that demand a clean, hydrocarbon-free vacuum, such as in coating processes. “This includes the production of glass lenses, medical devices and the coating of aerospace components and architectural glass,” said Jinane Haddad.
The most important advantages of the TURBOVAC MAG 2807 iS and 3207 iS are:
- Minimal wear reduces maintenance intervals
- Clean, vibration-free operation qualifies the MAG iS for sensitive processes
- Reliable, robust performance ensures industrial production levels
- Pumping speed of up to 3,200 litres per second.
