| Brinkmann DISTIVAC® ultra dry vacuum pump
Brinkmann Instruments introduces the DISTIVAC ultra dry vacuum pump—ideal for use with a rotary evaporator for stripping high boiling point solvents (<160ºC), such as DMF, or low boiling point solvents, such as methylene chloride, using the regulator.
This system’s patent-pending, two-stage, flexible diaphragm pump resists chemical vapors thanks to fluorinated plastics used on all wetted surfaces, including the diaphragm itself. The pump is oil-free yet delivers a vacuum to 2 Torr (2.7 mbar) with a free air displacement of 32 L/min (14.1 cfm). Plus, the auto purge feature runs for two minutes at shutdown to rid the pump of residue—ensuring longer membrane service life and reducing downtime. The DISTIVAC ultra is fully equipped with several added protective features. They include a glass inlet separator that helps prevent the pump from ingesting liquids or particulates, a gas ballast (vent switch) to minimize condensation when pumping heavy vapor loads, and an exhaust separator that collects any liquid droplets or particulates flushed from the pump during the purge cycle.
An adjustable bleed valve mounted directly on the system lets you regulate the vacuum level, while a dial pressure gauge permits monitoring of set value—a feature especially useful when pumping low boiling point solvents to minimize foaming or bumping within a flask (handles flasks up to 5 L).
