Mechanical Booster Pump

ULVAC's mechanical booster pumps can be used in conjunction with roughing pumps ,(such as oil rotary pumps and dry vacuum pumps), in order to improve the pumping speed in the 10 k-0.1 Pa ranges, where pumping speeds of roughing pumps often deteriorate.

By using them together with dry pumps, oil rotary vacuum pumps or water-sealed pumps, mechanical booster pumps can increase the evacuation speed in the 1 kPa to 0.1 Pa range, where rough pump evacuation speed drops. The models in the PRC-A Series are the successors to ULVAC's PMB-006C(M), and PMB-012C(M) models. Like the PMB-C(M) Series, they are Roots pumps designed for general-purpose applications, as well as semiconductor and LC manufacturing processes that require a highly clean atmosphere inside and outside the pump. The PMB-C Series is ideal for general-purpose applications and clean applications. The PMB-B Series is ideal for large-capacity evacuation, such as for heat treatment furnaces and melting furnaces.

The PRC-A Series are improved versions of ULVAC's long-used PMB-003C(M), PMB-006C(M) and PMB-012C(M) models. They have the same evacuation performance with lower noise and greater reliability, and are ideal for use in the dust-sensitive environments required for clean rooms for semiconductor and LC manufacturing processes. The PRC-A Series are Roots pumps designed mainly for processes requiring highly clean atmospheres. They can be used with auxiliary pumps, to increase the evacuation speed in the 10 kPa to 1 Pa range.

Compact and light weight roots type vacuum pump to support pumping speed of backing pump.
