Vacuum pump

The P6040 vacuum pump range with COAX technology provides flexible mounting options, an extensive performance range and optional control functions, making it very adaptable and suitable for most industrial vacuum applications.

The pump offers powerful suction in a small package, allowing it to be mounted close to the point of suction and resulting in smaller pump requirements with lessened energy needs.

Three main types of cartridges — Pi, Si and Xi — are available for different applications.

The Pi cartridges are designed to achieve a high vacuum level at low feed pressures. They are suitable when pressures in compressed air lines fluctuate and are recommended in situations such as handling sheet metal, or glass or other non-porous products, where reliable vacuum flow and a high-level vacuum are needed. Pi can deliver high vacuum levels down to 90 kPa.

The Si cartridges are designed to provide extra vacuum flow for handling porous materials, such as corrugated board, and for high-volume evacuation in, for example, a fast-cycling system where it is necessary to compensate for leakage in order to maintain the vacuum level. Si cartridges can deliver moderate vacuum levels down to 75 kPa.

The Xi cartridges are designed to provide high flow at deep vacuum levels and are suitable for use at moderate feed pressures. The Xi cartridge model is suitable for applications such as injection moulding and thermo forming. Within process vacuum applications, the Xi is recommended for drying, mixing, degassing and evaporation and can deliver high vacuum levels down to 95 kPa.

The modular P6040 features an anodised aluminium housing to withstand demanding environments and is strong enough to use as a support. With no moving parts or heat generation and little maintenance required, downtime and work stoppage are minimal.
