  • Page 13 There are 2 common but different ways to denote flow rate in vacuum. The first one is based on the displacement or volumetric flow rate and the second one is based on the throughput or mass flow rate. Atlas Copco vacuum pumps use volumetric flow rate to denote performance, the unit being actual m³/h. Displacement/volumetric flow rate...
  • Page 14 Instruction book General description The GVS 16A up to GVS 630A are single-stage, oil-sealed and air-cooled rotary vane vacuum pumps driven by an electric motor. GVS 100A up to GVS 300A are also available without electric motor. GVS 470A and GVS 630A are belt driven.
  • Page 15: Air Flow

    Instruction book Air flow  Air drawn through the air intake filter (optional), the inlet protection screen and the inlet non-return valve is displaced by the vacuum pump element towards the air end exhaust valve. This valve ejects a mixture of air and oil into the exhaust filter element. After passing the exhaust filter element, clean air - conditioned to a few parts per million - is discharged through the outlet.
