The advantages of KNF vacuum pumps

KNF Neuberger GmbH has been one of the absolute innovation leaders in the field of vacuum and diaphragm pumps for many decades. And for good reason: in addition to outstanding product quality and a wide range of pump systems, the company positions itself at the forefront of modern technologies. Particularly noteworthy is the LABOPORT model series, which is one of the KNF Neuberger diaphragm pumps. Those who choose a vacuum pump also benefit from the following advantages:

Long service life

An essential component of satisfaction with vacuum pump results from the fact that customers can rely on the system. Not least for this reason, KNF Neuberger pays special attention to the robustness and durability of all its products. That is why the pumps keep their promises - for years to come. At the same time, KNF pumps impress with their high-quality material composition, high power and a compact design.

Solvent resistance

Depending on the model, ptfe coated KNF vacuum pumps can be selected as chemical-resistant versions, making them durable and solvent-resistant against most aggressive corrosives. This is made possible by the use of different materials for the components in contact with the media, which are not affected by chemicals, condensation or moisture. Since the pumps are also produced without moving seals, maintenance is kept to a minimum.

Modular system

Not all vacuum pumps are the same - to ensure that the new laboratory equipment meets all requirements and fits ideally into your daily work routine, the manufacturer attaches great importance to flexible and customised solutions With a range of more than 100 series pumps in a modular system, specific requirements can be met and KNF pumps can be converted into a precisely fitting piece of work equipment. This includes, for example, increased capacities, noise reduction, chemical resistance and various connection configurations.

Highly efficient operation

At the same time, KNF Neuberger diaphragm pumps are characterised by highly efficient operation, based on the development of the manufacturer's Smooth Flow pumps. Thus, the pumps offer low pulsation and a gentle as well as efficient flow and an easily transfer that remains constant even at high liquid volumes, vaports and laboratory gases.

KNF vacuum pumps: product selection

In the MedSolut range you will find a wide selection of KNF vacuum pumps, which can be divided into the following categories:

Vacuum pump systems

The vacuum pump systems from KNF Neuberger, which include the models SC 920 G and SC 950, for example, are characterised by a high transport rate of up to 21 l/min and an ultimate vacuum of 2 mbar. In addition, there are four operating modes including adaptive programmable vacuum control and precise pressure detection. Pressure surges are effectively prevented, so that this KNF vacuum pump can guarantee particularly consistent results and excellent protection.

Diaphragm vacuum pump

The category of KNF diaphragm pumps includes, for example, the models N 840.3 FT.18 and N 920 G, which are characterised by a high pump ing speed in the lower vacuum range and feature infinitely variable speed regulation. At the same time, KNF vacuum pumps are exceptionally quiet and operate entirely oil-free, which makes their operation particularly environmentally friendly. They are easy to clean. This makes them an ideal partner for numerous applications, including distillation, degassing, gel drying and centrifugal concentration.

Chemically resistant diaphragm vacuum pump

When it comes to working with aggressive and corrosive gases and vapours, you can rely on KNF's chemically resistant diaphragm pumps. These include, above all, the units of the LABOPORT series (such as the model LABOPORT SC 820 or the model LABOPORT SH 820). They are highly compatible with steam and condensate and are coated with TFM PTFE or FFPM on all parts that come into contact with the medium.

Self-drying vacuum pump

The self-drying KNF pumps, which include the LABOPORT SD N 842.3 FT.40.18 model series, are also suitable for moist condensates. These pump systems have an integrated KNF self-drying system with coated diaphragm as well as coated profiles. This effectively prevents the accumulation of condensate in the pump head. At the same time, it maintain requirements of these chemically resistant diaphragm pumps are significantly reduced.

Accessories

To customise your ideal KNF vacuum pump, the manufacturer offers a wide range of accessories and spare parts, which you can also find in our range. These include, among others:

  • Receiving flask,

  • After-condensers with pressure relief valve,

  • hose nipples,

  • screw connection caps,

  • interface cable

  • vapors

  • and various hoses.

Areas of application for KNF pumps

Speaking of fields of application - KNF vacuum pumps are suitable for various purposes and areas of application, ranging from simple distillation and rotary evaporation to pharmaceutical, chemical and industrial production. In addition, the following examples of applications for KNF Neuberger pumps can be mentioned:

  • Semiconductor industry: Special transfer pumps made of ionisation-resistant material for feed and return in the production of nanotechnology.

  • Restoration: Pump systems for the electrolytic cleaning of (historical) objects made of silver.

  • Food production: Intelligent compressed air supply for coffee machines, enabling the production of high-quality milk foam.

  • Medical research: Component in the Ventricular Assist Device (VAD, down support system) of the medical technology manufacturer Berlin Heart GmbH.

  • Space industry: Part of the supply system on the ISS in the form of a pump used in the recycling of used air.
