Product Description
Description
The Dry Piston Vacuum Pump Kit is a twin-headed dry piston pump suitable for a wide range of laboratory applications, particularly where de-airing of samples submerged in water is needed.
This vacuum kit is ideal for Solid density of medium and fine soil particles test to NZS 4402.2.7.2 and Theoretical Maximum Specific Gravity (TMSG) test to ASTM D2041, as well as any other similar apparatus where de-airing or vacuum are needed.
The pump comes with a manifold assembly that is equipped with the main lever controlled valve and a smaller knob controlled needle valve, allowing precise control of vacuum level. The pump is also equipped with a simple -100/0 kPa vacuum gauge that greatly assists with monitoring the vacuum level at the pump and serves as a convenient secondary indicator in configurations where an absolute vacuum gauge or manometer are used.
The kit includes:
- RVD70 double headed dry vane pump, 70 LPM flow rate, 750 mmHg max. vacuum
- 1/4″ manifold assembly with a needle valve for adjustment of flow control
- 0 to -100 kPa vacuum gauge
Optional accessories:
- Vacuum rated silicone tubing, 6 mm internal diameter
- Moisture trap apparatus (to prevent water entering and damaging the pump)
- Absolute vacuum digital manometer or digital gauge
