With the TURBOVAC iR variants, vacuum manufacturer Leybold is launching a new, full turbomolecular pump sequence, technologically derived from the proven TURBOVAC i family. “The iR models replace the former TURBOVAC ClassicLine pumps and meet, for example, the necessities of our high-end research prospects – similar to the main research institutes CERN or DESY,” summarizes the accountable product supervisor, Petr Lastovicka.
Accordingly, the TURBOVAC iR was designed for versatile distant operation from three meters to distances of one kilometre. In all aspects the merchandise had been also designed to resist the challenges that are present in environments with excessive to very excessive ionizing radiation. “For this, we provide special cable lengths of as a lot as 200 meters, and also the option for the users to use their own cables,” explains product supervisor Petr Lastovicka. According to Lastovicka, the iR models have been developed utilizing the existing materials data of the research neighborhood: As a outcome, the supplies they comprise have radiation tolerances of up to 1 million grays (Gy).
In mixture with the ion getter and non-evaporable getter pumps, so called ultra-high vacuum pumps, “These attributes set them aside from commonplace market models, which are assembly the market requirements however not particularly those wanted for the actual circumstances encountered in analysis facilities,” says Petr Lastovicka. This is completely different with the TURBOVAC iR product collection: on the one hand, they were developed for the special necessities relating to cable length and radiation tolerance. “In addition, we are able to provide the TURBOVAC iR pumps mixed with our ion pumps and NEG pumps, which different suppliers can’t supply as a package,” provides Lastovicka. TURBOVAC iR matches completely properly within the TURBOVAC i eco methods as other merchandise similar to accessories or the software program LeyAssist could be utilized as nicely.
The backside line is that the model new iR models are designed to satisfy the technical necessities of the high-energy physics market. This makes them predestined for functions such as synchrotrons (particle accelerators), cyclotrons (circular accelerators), linear accelerators and free-electron lasers. “In these areas, customers can remove the electronics and place them in areas
the place they aren’t uncovered to radiation,” explains Petr Lastovicka.
Another elementary condition in these software areas is the absolute purity of the pump: this core requirement is fulfilled by the oil-free operation of the bearing system of the new TURBOVAC iR sequence. The TURBOVAC iR also supports all related communication choices of the TURBOVAC I, USB, 15-pin digital I/O and all serial and fieldbus choices of the TURBO.DRIVE 500e. Another benefit: The integrated, new TURBO.DRIVE controller automatically recognizes the pump model and instantly adjusts to the precise working modes.
The TURBOVAC iR range fully covers all existing members of the TURBOVAC i household with pumping speeds from ninety to 950 l/s. In parallel, Leybold will successively expand the equipment range of supporting controllers and cable choices to fulfill buyer wants for
extra cable lengths and intelligent solutions. เกจวัดแรงดันปั๊มลมpuma .DRIVE 500eC has been launched in April and the TURBOVAC iR sizes 1350 and 1450 will comply with within the third quarter of 2022 along with the more powerful controller option to realize even longer cable lengths.
