With the TURBOVAC iR variants, vacuum producer Leybold is launching a new, complete turbomolecular pump sequence, technologically derived from the proven TURBOVAC i family. “The iR fashions replace the former TURBOVAC ClassicLine pumps and meet, for example, the necessities of our high-end research prospects – corresponding to the major research institutes CERN or DESY,” summarizes the accountable product supervisor, Petr Lastovicka.
Accordingly, the TURBOVAC iR was designed for versatile remote operation from 3 meters to distances of 1 kilometre. In all elements the products had been also designed to withstand the challenges that are current in environments with high to very high ionizing radiation. “For this, we offer particular cable lengths of as much as 200 meters, and also the choice for the customers to make use of their very own cables,” explains product supervisor Petr Lastovicka. According to ตัววัดแรงดันน้ำมัน , the iR models had been developed using the present materials information of the research group: As a outcome, the supplies they contain have radiation tolerances of up to 1 million grays (Gy).
In เกจ์วัดแรงดันน้ำ with the ion getter and non-evaporable getter pumps, so referred to as ultra-high vacuum pumps, “These attributes set them apart from commonplace market fashions, which are meeting the market requirements however not particularly those wanted for the particular conditions encountered in analysis centers,” says Petr Lastovicka. This is totally different with the TURBOVAC iR product series: on the one hand, they were developed for the special requirements concerning cable length and radiation tolerance. “In addition, we are able to supply the TURBOVAC iR pumps combined with our ion pumps and NEG pumps, which different suppliers can’t offer as a package,” adds Lastovicka. TURBOVAC iR matches completely properly within the TURBOVAC i eco techniques as different products such as accessories or the software LeyAssist may be utilized as properly.
The bottom line is that the new iR models are designed to satisfy the technical necessities of the high-energy physics market. This makes them predestined for purposes such as synchrotrons (particle accelerators), cyclotrons (circular accelerators), linear accelerators and free-electron lasers. “In these areas, users can remove the electronics and place them in areas
where they don’t appear to be uncovered to radiation,” explains Petr Lastovicka.
Another elementary condition in these application areas is absolutely the purity of the pump: this core requirement is fulfilled by the oil-free operation of the bearing system of the new TURBOVAC iR series. The TURBOVAC iR additionally helps all relevant communication choices of the TURBOVAC I, USB, 15-pin digital I/O and all serial and fieldbus choices of the TURBO.DRIVE 500e. Another advantage: The built-in, new TURBO.DRIVE controller automatically acknowledges the pump mannequin and immediately adjusts to the precise operating modes.
The TURBOVAC iR vary fully covers all present 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 options to fulfill customer needs for
further cable lengths and clever solutions. The intelligent Controller TURBO.DRIVE 500eC has been launched in April and the TURBOVAC iR sizes 1350 and 1450 will follow in the third quarter of 2022 along with the extra powerful controller possibility to realize even longer cable lengths.
