Vacuum Technology

Gas jet vacuum pump

Gas jet vacuum pumps type gp1 and lvp1 are based on proven jet pump technology and often used to evacuate pipelines, vessels, and plants. They are used to mix and compress gases.

Applications

  • Evacuation of siphoning installation
  • Elevation of liquids with gas/air
  • Evacuation of the suction line of a centrifugal pump
  • Compress gas from gas field into pipeline

Mode of operation

Gas jet vacuum pumps operate on the same principle as all jet pumps: The pressure energy of the motive medium is converted into speed energy in the motive nozzle.

Instead of liquid or steam, gas or compressed air is used as the motive medium. This is particularly suitable where no steam is available or where compressed air or gas as motive medium offer advantages over steam.

Advantages

  • No moving parts
  • Maintenance-free
  • Can be installed in virtually all situations
  • Quickly and easily put into operation
  • Almost unlimited life, when a suitable material of construction is chosen
  • Can be manufactured from various materials of construction
  • Low acquisition costs
