With the TURBOVAC iR variants, vacuum manufacturer Leybold is launching a new, complete turbomolecular pump collection, technologically derived from the proven TURBOVAC i household. “The iR models replace the previous TURBOVAC ClassicLine pumps and meet, for instance, the necessities of our high-end research customers – such as the main analysis institutes CERN or DESY,” summarizes the responsible product supervisor, Petr Lastovicka.
Accordingly, the TURBOVAC iR was designed for flexible distant operation from 3 meters to distances of 1 kilometre. In all elements the products had been also designed to resist the challenges which are present in environments with high to very excessive ionizing radiation. “For this, we offer special cable lengths of up to 200 meters, and also the option for the users to use their very own cables,” explains product supervisor Petr Lastovicka. According to Lastovicka, the iR models have been developed using the existing materials data of the analysis community: As a result, the supplies they include have radiation tolerances of up to 1 million grays (Gy).
In combination with the ion getter and non-evaporable getter pumps, so referred to as ultra-high vacuum pumps, “These attributes set them apart from standard market models, which are meeting the market requirements but not specifically those needed for the actual situations encountered in research facilities,” says Petr Lastovicka. This is completely different with the TURBOVAC iR product series: on the one hand, they were developed for the particular requirements relating to cable size and radiation tolerance. “In addition, we can supply the TURBOVAC iR pumps mixed with our ion pumps and NEG pumps, which different suppliers can not supply as a bundle,” provides Lastovicka. TURBOVAC iR matches perfectly properly in the TURBOVAC i eco systems as other merchandise corresponding to equipment or the software program LeyAssist could be utilized as properly.
The bottom line is that the brand new iR models are designed to meet the technical necessities of the high-energy physics market. This makes them predestined for applications corresponding to 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
the place they aren’t uncovered to radiation,” explains Petr Lastovicka.
pressure gauge น้ำ in these software areas is the absolute 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 supports all relevant communication options of the TURBOVAC I, USB, 15-pin digital I/O and all serial and fieldbus choices of the TURBO.DRIVE 500e. เกจแรงดันน้ำ : The integrated, new TURBO.DRIVE controller automatically recognizes the pump model and instantly adjusts to the particular working modes.
The TURBOVAC iR vary completely covers all current members of the TURBOVAC i family with pumping speeds from 90 to 950 l/s. In parallel, Leybold will successively expand the accessories range of supporting controllers and cable choices to fulfill buyer wants for
additional cable lengths and intelligent solutions. The intelligent Controller TURBO.DRIVE 500eC has been launched in April and the TURBOVAC iR sizes 1350 and 1450 will observe within the third quarter of 2022 along with the extra powerful controller option to comprehend even longer cable lengths.
