BH2-200 Oil-Free Dry Vacuum Pumping System

Product Description
Drivac pump packages provide reliable oil-free pumping from atmospheric pressure to the 10-6 Torr range. All components were selected based on ruggedness and reliability as the primary criteria. Operation is fully automatic and interlocked, and these packages are not adversely affected by operator error or power failure.
The BH2-200 is ideally suited for vacuum chamber volumes up to 200 liters. The BH2-200 has one-button start-up. There are over 2000 Drivac Vacuum Pumping Packages in the field. Over 90% of orders come from satisfied customers needing a simple but robust high vacuum pump station.
Field-proven 16 cfm Alcatel molecular drag pump
Rugged, industrial-grade, 3-stage diaphragm pump.
Automatic roughing valve and bypass manifold are included in the basic pump package.
Extremely quiet operation.
Drivac VACUUM-MONITOR sensor and circuit automatically control molecular drag pump operation.
Modular design provides for remote mounting of control module and/or direct mounting of the molecular drag pump to user's system flange.
ROUGHING ION PUMPED SYSTEMS
Drivac packages virtually eliminate starting problems of ion pumps by providing fast roughing to the 10-4 Torr range and below. The 16 cfm pumping speed curve of the molecular drag pump extends to the 10-6 Torr range. Users report extended cathode life resulting from starting their ion pump at reduced pressures.
BACKING TURBO PUMPS
Because DRI-2 packages contain no oil, they eliminate the need to vent the turbo in power-off and/or power-failure situations. In UHV-grade systems, providing a backing pressure of 10-5 Torr for the turbo extends the useful pumping speed range of the turbo resulting in lower base pressures. In RGA sampling system applications, users report dramatically reduced water levels in the sampling manifold compared to oil-sealed backing pumps.
ROUGHING CRYOPUMPED SYSTEMS
Drivac packages eliminate the possibility of system contamination from oil during the roughing phase. Of equal importance, they eliminate the possibility of oil contamination of the cryopump charcoal array during regeneration. During regeneration which entails vacuum levels of 50 millitorr (molecular flow), the charcoal array is particularly vulnerable to oil migration from the roughing pump. DRI-2 packages eliminate this possibility.
