With the TURBOVAC iR variants, vacuum manufacturer Leybold is launching a brand new, full turbomolecular pump series, 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 research customers – corresponding to the most important research institutes CERN or DESY,” summarizes the responsible product supervisor, Petr Lastovicka.
Accordingly, the TURBOVAC iR was designed for flexible remote operation from 3 meters to distances of one kilometre. In all elements the merchandise had been additionally designed to resist the challenges which are current in environments with excessive to very excessive ionizing radiation. “For this, we offer special cable lengths of up to 200 meters, and likewise the choice for the users to use their own cables,” explains product manager Petr Lastovicka. According to Lastovicka, the iR fashions have been developed utilizing the present material data of the research neighborhood: As a result, the materials they include have radiation tolerances of as a lot as 1 million grays (Gy).
In mixture 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 needed for the actual situations encountered in research centers,” says Petr Lastovicka. This is totally different with the TURBOVAC iR product sequence: on the one hand, they had been developed for the particular requirements relating to cable size and radiation tolerance. “In addition, we can supply the TURBOVAC iR pumps combined with our ion pumps and NEG pumps, which different suppliers cannot supply as a package deal,” adds Lastovicka. TURBOVAC iR fits perfectly properly within the TURBOVAC i eco techniques as other merchandise similar to equipment or the software program LeyAssist can be utilized as properly.
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 purposes similar to synchrotrons (particle accelerators), cyclotrons (circular accelerators), linear accelerators and free-electron lasers. “In these areas, customers can remove the electronics and place them in areas
the place they aren’t exposed to radiation,” explains Petr Lastovicka.
Another elementary situation in these software 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 sequence. The TURBOVAC iR additionally helps all relevant communication choices of the TURBOVAC I, USB, 15-pin digital I/O and all serial and fieldbus options of the TURBO.DRIVE 500e. เกจวัดแรงดันเครื่องกรองน้ำ : The built-in, new TURBO.DRIVE controller mechanically acknowledges the pump mannequin and immediately adjusts to the particular operating 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 meet customer needs for
extra cable lengths and intelligent solutions. The clever Controller TURBO.DRIVE 500eC has been launched in April and the TURBOVAC iR sizes 1350 and 1450 will comply with in the third quarter of 2022 along with the extra powerful controller option to realize even longer cable lengths.
