The game-changing V-Boost vacuum pump from VTA

VTA have has unveiled its latest innovation, the V-Boost vacuum pump, designed to meet the demanding needs of the process industry. This state-of-the-art diffusion booster pump offers a high suction capacity and exceptional throughput, even at notably low operating pressures, ensuring rapid pump-down times and significantly improved efficiency, ensuring stable operation, the ideal choice for distillation systems.

Here’s why it stands out:

Optimized for high-vacuum operation

  • Lower ultimate pressure: Achieves vacuum levels as low as 2,0 x 10-5 mbara, which is crucial for sensitive short-path and thin-film distillation processes used in VTA systems.
  • High suction capacity: With a nominal pumping speed of 15,000 m³/h, it ensures rapid removal of vapour and non-condensable gases, reducing distillation times and improving efficiency.

Increased product yield & purity

  • Minimizes thermal degradation: Lower operating pressures reduce boiling temperatures, preventing heat-sensitive compounds from breaking down, leading to higher-purity distillates.
  • Stable process conditions: Maintains consistent vacuum levels, reducing pressure fluctuations that could negatively affect separation efficiency.

Energy efficiency & cost savings

  • Reduced power consumption: Uses removable cartridge heaters that efficiently transfer heat, minimizing energy loss.
  • Thermal insulation & efficient cooling: Boiler isolation minimizes heat loss, while the low cooling water requirement (500 l/h) ensures lower operating costs.

Robust & easy maintenance

  • Durable stainless-steel construction: Corrosion-resistant and designed for long-term industrial use.
  • Easy cleaning & fluid replacement: Features a sight glass, low-level switch, and fully drainable design to simplify maintenance and minimize downtime.

Conclusion
The V-Boost Vacuum Pump enhances thermal separation efficiency, reduces operating costs, and ensures product integrity, all while providing reliable, low-maintenance performance in vacuum-driven applications.
