Multi-stage steam jet vacuum pumps for industrial applications
In industrial processes like evaporation, distillation, and freeze-drying, maintaining a high-quality vacuum is crucial. Traditional methods can be inefficient, requiring frequent maintenance and additional equipment to manage. Therefore, advanced systems are required to offer reliable, low-maintenance vacuum solutions.
Create reliable vacuum for diverse applications
The multi-stage steam jet vacuum pumps from GEA utilize steam as the motive medium to generate vacuums in a variety of industrial processes. These pumps are highly versatile and can achieve suction pressures as low as 0.01 mbar with capacities up to 2 million m³/h. Their ability to be combined with mechanical vacuum pumps enhances their flexibility. Multi-stage systems are necessary for processes requiring low suction pressures, arranged with condensers to condense motive steam and reduce energy requirements. These systems are constructed from materials such as cast iron, steel, stainless steel, graphite, and porcelain, depending on the application’s needs. They are ideal for processes involving corrosive gases or those requiring the isolation of cooling media and process vapor.
