With the TURBOVAC iR variants, vacuum producer Leybold is launching a new, full turbomolecular pump collection, technologically derived from the proven TURBOVAC i family. “The iR fashions exchange the previous TURBOVAC ClassicLine pumps and meet, for instance, the necessities of our high-end analysis customers – such as the most important analysis institutes CERN or DESY,” summarizes the accountable product manager, Petr Lastovicka.
Accordingly, the TURBOVAC iR was designed for flexible remote operation from 3 meters to distances of 1 kilometre. In all aspects the merchandise had been additionally designed to resist the challenges that are present in environments with high to very high ionizing radiation. “For this, we offer special cable lengths of up to 200 meters, and likewise the choice for the customers to make use of their very own cables,” explains product manager Petr Lastovicka. According to Lastovicka, the iR fashions had been developed using the existing materials information of the research neighborhood: As a outcome, the supplies they contain have radiation tolerances of up to 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 other than commonplace market fashions, which are assembly the market requirements however not particularly those needed for the particular conditions encountered in research centers,” says Petr Lastovicka. This is different with the TURBOVAC iR product collection: on the one hand, they had been developed for the special requirements relating to cable length and radiation tolerance. “In ตัววัดแรงดันน้ำมัน , we will provide 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 well within the TURBOVAC i eco techniques as other products corresponding to accessories or the software program LeyAssist could be utilized as properly.
The backside line is that the brand 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, users can remove the electronics and place them in areas
where they do not seem to be uncovered to radiation,” explains Petr Lastovicka.
Another elementary situation 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 additionally supports 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 benefit: The integrated, new TURBO.DRIVE controller routinely acknowledges the pump model and immediately adjusts to the precise working modes.
The TURBOVAC iR vary utterly covers all present members of the TURBOVAC i household with pumping speeds from ninety to 950 l/s. In parallel, Leybold will successively expand the accessories range of supporting controllers and cable choices to satisfy customer needs for
additional cable lengths and clever options. The intelligent 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 comprehend even longer cable lengths.
