VHS, HS, AX DIFFUSION PUMP

Agilent has earned its position as the leading diffusion pump manufacturer in the world by listening to customer needs and by continuously improving the performance and reliability of their benchmark designs. Throughout their more than forty years of leadership in the industry, they have consistently produced pumps that provide the most efficient means of converting heat into pumping throughput.

Agilent’s experience has allowed them to optimize the design of every element of the pump. As a result, Agilent diffusion pumps offer you the lowest cost of ownership available for many high vacuum-pumping applications.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Low Cost of Ownership

By providing the highest throughput available per unit of power, reduced cooling water requirements, and rugged, durable construction, Agilent delivers large volume pumping at the lowest total cost to you.

Built for Production Volumes

Agilent’s success is in helping you meet the exacting requirements of your production process. Their pumps deliver superior pumping at high pressure and high gas flow conditions, and handle gas load variations that are typical of large volume production

Robust Boiler Design

Through optimized boiler design, Agilent pumps are stable and reliable under widely varying operating conditions.  This temperature stability prolongs fluid life as well. Thermal protection switches prevent system over-temperature conditions.

Options to Address Your Needs

Many applications have unique requirements. Agilent can provide additional features such as Halo or custom baffles to eliminate additional backstreaming, and a Quick Cool Coil option to accelerate system cycle times.

Fully Optimized Jet

Using their long and varied experience, Agilent designs and produces vapor jets that deliver the highest throughput pressure stability, and tolerable foreline pressure available, while reducing backstreaming to a minimum.

Easy to Maintain

Maintaining uptime is critical so we have simplified operation and maintenance. A sight glass provides visual indication of status when cold or hot and under vacuum. A gauge port facilitates system troubleshooting.
