Vacuum Pump- Different Types & Applications The vacuum pumps are the mechanic device that are applied to remove gas molecules from a sealed volume in order to leave behind a partial vacuum. The vacuum pumps are used in many industrial and scientific processes. They are used in varied industries such as Food & Beverage, Chemical, Plastic, pharmaceutical, and many more.

Diverse Range of Vacuum Pumps with their Applications There are various types of vacuum pumps available in economy to cater the specific demands and requirements of users. Some of them are listed below:

Liquid or Water Ring Vacuum Pump    

Liquid Ring Vacuum Pump consists of impeller with blades which are attached to a center hub located in a cylindrical body. Prior operating, it should be partially filled with any liquid compatible having apt vapor pressure properties like a sealant liquid or any other liquid to achieve vacuum. In Water Ring Vacuum Pump, the water is used in place of a sealant liquid. When the pump starts, the impeller slings the liquid sealant, by applying centrifugal force. There is a cooling system to dissipate the heat produced during the operation.

Liquid Ring Vacuum Pump Applications    

Liquid ring vacuum pump is used commonly in water remediation, food processing and pharmaceutical production. Pharmaceutical Industry: The vacuum pumps are used for drying, vapor recovery, etc. Food Industry: It is used to remove water from the food production process. Water Remediation: It is used to treat damage water, contaminated groundwater etc.
