With the TURBOVAC iR variants, vacuum producer Leybold is launching a brand new, full turbomolecular pump collection, technologically derived from the proven TURBOVAC i household. “The iR fashions substitute the previous TURBOVAC ClassicLine pumps and meet, for example, the necessities of our high-end research customers – corresponding to the major research institutes CERN or DESY,” summarizes the accountable product manager, Petr Lastovicka.
Accordingly, the TURBOVAC iR was designed for versatile remote operation from three meters to distances of one kilometre. In เกจวัดแรงดันไฟฟ้า had been also designed to withstand the challenges that are present in environments with high to very high ionizing radiation. “For this, we offer particular cable lengths of up to 200 meters, and in addition the choice for the users to make use of their very own cables,” explains product supervisor Petr Lastovicka. According to Lastovicka, the iR models were developed utilizing the existing material data of the analysis community: As a result, the materials 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 other than normal market models, that are meeting the market necessities but not particularly those needed for the actual circumstances encountered in research centers,” says Petr Lastovicka. This is completely different with the TURBOVAC iR product series: on the one hand, they have been developed for the special requirements relating to cable size and radiation tolerance. “In addition, we will offer the TURBOVAC iR pumps combined with our ion pumps and NEG pumps, which other suppliers cannot offer as a bundle,” provides Lastovicka. TURBOVAC iR matches completely nicely in the TURBOVAC i eco techniques as other products corresponding to equipment or the software program LeyAssist can be utilized as properly.
The bottom line is that the new iR models are designed to fulfill the technical necessities of the high-energy physics market. This makes them predestined for functions similar to synchrotrons (particle accelerators), cyclotrons (circular accelerators), linear accelerators and free-electron lasers. “In these areas, users can take away the electronics and place them in areas
where they aren’t uncovered to radiation,” explains Petr Lastovicka.
Another elementary situation in these application areas is completely the purity of the pump: this core requirement is fulfilled by the oil-free operation of the bearing system of the new TURBOVAC iR collection. The TURBOVAC iR also helps all relevant communication options of the TURBOVAC I, USB, 15-pin digital I/O and all serial and fieldbus options of the TURBO.DRIVE 500e. Another advantage: The built-in, new TURBO.DRIVE controller routinely recognizes the pump model and instantly adjusts to the specific working modes.
The TURBOVAC iR range completely covers all current members of the TURBOVAC i household with pumping speeds from ninety to 950 l/s. In parallel, Leybold will successively broaden the accessories vary of supporting controllers and cable choices to fulfill customer wants for
further cable lengths and intelligent options. The clever Controller TURBO.DRIVE 500eC has been released in April and the TURBOVAC iR sizes 1350 and 1450 will follow in the third quarter of 2022 together with the extra highly effective controller possibility to understand even longer cable lengths.
