VACUUBRAND – Vacuum Solutions for Laboratory Processes
Definition and Classification
VACUUBRAND is a manufacturer of vacuum pumps, vacuum systems, vacuum gauges and vacuum controllers for laboratory applications. Its solutions are used worldwide in science, research, and industry, particularly in fields such as chemistry, biopharma, analytics, physics, and renewable energies.
The company is part of the Brand Group and develops and manufactures its technologies in Germany.
VACUUBRAND vacuum solutions are designed for reliable, durable, and chemically resistant processes. They are used especially in laboratory environments where aggressive media are processed or precise and reproducible vacuum conditions are required.
Pump technologies
VACUUBRAND develops various pump technologies for different vacuum ranges and laboratory applications.
Diaphragm pumps
Diaphragm pumps are VACUUBRAND's core technology. They operate oil-free and are particularly suitable for laboratory applications involving chemically aggressive media.
Chemically resistant diaphragm pumps are used, for example, in applications such as rotary evaporation, filtration, or drying, and are characterized by low maintenance requirements and a long service life.
Screw pumps
Dry screw pumps enable oil-free operation in the fine vacuum range down to 10-3 mbar and deliver a clean, hydrocarbon-free vacuum. They are used in various laboratory applications or as backing pump for high vacuum systems, especially if high process purity or chemical resistance are required.
Rotary vane pumps
Rotary vane pumps are used in the fine vacuum range down 10-3 mbar and are utilized, for example, in freeze-drying or Schlenk line processes.
Measurement and control technologies
In addition to vacuum pumps, VACUUBRAND's portfolio also includes technologies for measuring, regulating and controlling vacuum processes. All devices are chemically resistant and can be used with aggressive media.
Vacuum gauges and controllers
VACUUBRAND offers gauges, sensors, and controllers for monitoring and controlling vacuum applications.
These systems enable precise measurement and control of vacuum processes and are used in combination with vacuum pumps.
VARIO vacuum control
VARIO technology enables adaptive vacuum control by adjusting the pump's motor speed. This allows the vacuum to be automatically adjusted to the specific process.
This supports stable, reproducible and efficient laboratory processes, for example, in evaporation or distillation applications.
Typical Laboratory Applications
VACUUBRAND vacuum systems are used in numerous laboratory processes.
Typical applications include:
- Rotary evaporation
- Distillation
- Filtration
- Drying
- Freeze-drying
- Schlenk line applications
- Reactors and synthesis processes
- Fluid aspiration in cell culture laboratories
Vacuum Networks and System Solutions
In addition to individual pumps, VACUUBRAND also offers solutions for the centralized vacuum supply of entire laboratories.
Multiple workstations can be supplied with a shared vacuum source via local vacuum networks. VACUUBRAND offers the modular system VACUU·LAN®, which consist of a vacuum pump, vacuum ports, fixtures and plumbings.
The company supports both laboratory users and planners in the design and implementation of such systems.
Quality, engineering and sustainability
VACUUBRAND develops and manufactures its technologies in Germany. The focus is on durable, reliable, and low-maintenance solutions for laboratory applications.
Typical quality features include:
- Chemical-resistant wetted materials
- Robust designs for long-term use
