With the TURBOVAC iR variants, vacuum manufacturer Leybold is launching a new, complete turbomolecular pump sequence, technologically derived from the confirmed TURBOVAC i household. “The iR models replace the former TURBOVAC ClassicLine pumps and meet, for instance, the necessities of our high-end analysis prospects – corresponding to the main analysis institutes CERN or DESY,” summarizes the responsible product manager, Petr Lastovicka.
Accordingly, the TURBOVAC iR was designed for flexible remote operation from 3 meters to distances of one kilometre. In all aspects the merchandise have been additionally designed to resist the challenges which are present in environments with high to very high ionizing radiation. “For this, we provide special cable lengths of up to 200 meters, and also the option for the customers to use their own cables,” explains product supervisor Petr Lastovicka. According to Lastovicka, the iR fashions have been developed utilizing the existing materials knowledge of the analysis neighborhood: As a result, the materials they comprise have radiation tolerances of as much as 1 million grays (Gy).
In combination with the ion getter and non-evaporable getter pumps, so called ultra-high vacuum pumps, “These attributes set them aside from standard market models, which are meeting the market requirements however not particularly those wanted for the actual circumstances encountered in analysis facilities,” says Petr Lastovicka. This is different with the TURBOVAC iR product series: on the one hand, they had been developed for the particular requirements relating to cable size and radiation tolerance. “In addition, we are able to offer the TURBOVAC iR pumps mixed with our ion pumps and NEG pumps, which other suppliers can’t offer as a package,” provides Lastovicka. TURBOVAC iR fits perfectly well within the TURBOVAC i eco methods as different merchandise similar to accessories or the software program LeyAssist can be utilized as well.
The bottom line is that the new iR models are designed to fulfill the technical requirements of the high-energy physics market. This makes them predestined for applications similar 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
where they aren’t uncovered to radiation,” explains Petr Lastovicka.
ราคาเกจวัดแรงดันน้ำ 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 sequence. The TURBOVAC iR also helps all related 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 automatically 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 increase the equipment vary of supporting controllers and cable options to fulfill buyer needs for
further cable lengths and clever solutions. The clever Controller TURBO.DRIVE 500eC has been launched in April and the TURBOVAC iR sizes 1350 and 1450 will comply with within the third quarter of 2022 along with the extra highly effective controller option to understand even longer cable lengths.
