Vacuum Pump
Requirements
A Vacuum Pump must be provided by the user. A Vacuum
Pump with a free air flow rate of 90 liters per minute and
-4
2 x 10
mBar ultimate pressure is adequate for aqueous
samples. More volatile samples can be satisfactorily
processed using a diaphragm pump with a free airflow of
75 liters per minute and 2 mbar vacuum. The inlet fitting on
the vacuum pump must be suitable for 0.50 ID tube.
Vacuum Pumps used with 115 V models should be equipped
with a 115 V, 15 Amp NEMA 5-15P plug and with a 230 V
models should be equipped with a "reverse" IEC 320 plug.
This will allow the Vacuum Pump to be plugged into the
receptacle on the back of the SRF110.
IMPORTANT NOTE: When selecting the Vacuum Pump, it is
very important to consider the flammability of the solvent that
will be used. If the solvents are flammable, an explosion-proof
vacuum pump or one suitable for the solvents to be
processed is recommended. See, Appendix D: Chemical
Resistance for solvents suitable for use in the SRF110.
