As a dry vacuum pump, the XtraDry from Pfeiffer Vacuum is ideally suited for all medium-vacuum applications down to 10-1 mbar that involve the need to pump dry, inert and nonreactive gases. It can be operated as either a stand-alone pump or as a backing pump for turbopumps and pumping stations.
The XtraDry operates absolutely free of hydrocarbons and particulate matter. This avoids contaminating the process or the environment. Fields of application range from analytical systems to various industrial applications.
A unique seal design prevents gas back-streaming within the pumping system. This enables gases to be pumped regardless of their molecular weight. Also, the XtraDry's automatic standby mode reduces the speed of the pump by more than 30 percent during operation at near ultimate pressure. This saves energy and increases service life. The XtraDry comes ready to operate, without the need for any additional accessories. A do-it-yourself kit makes for simple maintenance.
