Welch’s manufactures the CRVpro rotary vane pump range, a series of two-stage rotary vane pumps designed for various laboratory and industrial applications. These pumps are available in various sizes, with pumping speeds ranging from 2.5 liters per minute to 65 liters per minute, along with various configurations to suit specific applications, including corrosion-optimized ...
Comparing vacuum pumps - how to tell which provides a stronger vacuum?
When choosing a vacuum pump for any lab or industrial process such as vacuum filtration, rotary evaporators or for a vacuum oven, you may want to compare different models.
Since vacuum can be expressed in so many different units (mbar, bar, Torr, mm Hg, Pa, psi...) this can be difficult to do!
Looking at the ultimate vacu...
Rotary vane pumps are positive-displacement pumps consisting of vanes mounted to a rotor that rotates inside of an oil-sealed cavity. These moving vanes transport volumes of gas through the system and out of an outflow.
Rotary Vane Pump Principles
The above diagram illustrates the pump action. The rotary action of the pump creates a hollow space in the chamber (1) which expands as the pump ro...
In biochemistry, cell culture and microbiology applications, aspirators are commonly used for the removal and disposal of liquids. The aspiration pump creates a vacuum in the collection bottle which pulls in liquids due to differential pressure. The liquid collected in the bottle can then be disposed of.
At Camlab we supply a range for vacuum pumps from Welch ideal for this purpose. This range...
When performing a vacuum filtration, the solvent present can dictate the pump used. This is because some pumps are not "chemical duty" - with seals that work well with water vapours, but could degrade over time if exposed to organic solvent or acidic or basic vapours.
We have taken a look at some of the common solvent categories and which vacuum pumps are most suited for use with them to give ...
A common question is how can you safely dispense flammable liquids from a large industrial barrel.
Buerkle GmbH have the answer. The Stainless steel barrel pump is ideal to pump flammable liquids provided you ensure a few safety criteria are met.
The stainless steel pump is required because it is the most resistant to flammables and solvents and conducts electricity.

Thanks for sharing such a great information.. It really helpful to me.. I always search to read the quality content and finally i found this in you post. keep it up!
I came across your article about "DPD Tablets" on Camlab Info, and it's a valuable resource for anyone seeking information about water testing and analysis using DPD tablets. Your explanation of their usage and significance in water quality monitoring is quite informative.
This article on nanocolor tube tests is a gem for analytical enthusiasts. The idea of zero calibration is intriguing, and your detailed explanation makes it accessible. The step-by-step process helps demystify the technique for beginners like me. The use cases you've highlighted, particularly in...
Grant have introduced the new Controlled Rate Freeze Thaw (CRFT), which is a liquid nitrogen and cryogen free controlled rate freeze and thaw system for cryopreservation in a wide range of applications. Cryopreservation is a process where biological materials such as cells, tissues...
A dipslide is a means of testing the microbial content of liquids. This is a common method of monitoring and measuring microbial activity within many systems and commonly cooling systems. Usually the use of a dipslide is the first line of defence for the testing of microbial issues that could be...
Purchasing items using donated funds without the burden of VAT will now save many Millions of pounds each year which can be put to better use in advancing scientific knowledge to provide new treatments and cures that will shape the medicines of the future.
Working with pressure/vacuum conditions in the lab is common but not all products are designed to withstand this. Products with appropriate geometry and wall thickness are suitable for working safely with pressure. For example, filtering flasks, desiccators, or flat flange vessels, as well as...
