Rotary vane pump RE 16

RE 16

These powerful rotary vane pumps are the largest of the VACUUBRAND family and are designed for pumping large volumes of gases or evacuation of vessels.

Performance features

very high flow rates even at vacuum levels approaching ultimate vacuum
high water vapor tolerance due to efficient gas ballast; very good ultimate vacuum even with gas ballast
vacuum-tight at switch-off; external anti-suckback valve not needed
large oil volume: Long intervals between oil changes
ease of maintenance due to telescopic design
