Key Features of Mechanical Booster Vacuum
Pumps:
- Vacuum Enhancement: Booster pumps help increase the pumping speed of primary pumps (like rotary vane or diaphragm pumps) by creating additional vacuum pressure.
- Operation: They work by moving gas or air more efficiently within a vacuum system, thus improving overall system performance, especially at medium vacuum levels.
- Types of Mechanical Booster Pumps: There are two main types of mechanical booster pumps:
- Roots-type Booster Pumps: Commonly used and characterized by two rotating lobes or rotors that push gas through the pump.
- Turbine-type Booster Pumps: Use a turbine rotor to move gas through the system, typically used for high-speed applications.
