Choosing the Right Vacuum Pump for Laboratory Applications
Selecting the right vacuum pump hinges on understanding your laboratory application. First, determine the required vacuum level—rough, high, or ultra‑high—since different types (rotary vane, diaphragm, scroll, turbomolecular, etc.) cater to different pressure ranges. Next, consider the necessary pumping speed or flow rate to evacuate your system efficiently, factoring in chamber volume and desired pump‑down time.
