The laboratory vacuum system package is compliant with the NFPA 99 requirements for Risk Category 3 laboratory systems.Each system is completely tested before shipment and includes:Multiple vacuum pumps and associated equipmentASME air receiverNEMA 12 multiplex control panelEach pump is factory piped to a common intake manifold. Vibration isolation pads are included with the system. Claw Vacuum Pump Each pump shall be a rotary claw type vacuum pump, and shall be direct-driven through a shaft coupling by a C-face, TEFC electric motor.Each vacuum pump shall be dry-running, featuring two claw-type, non-contacting rotors and shall not require any sealing fluid in the pumping chamber, assuring virtually maintenance-free operation.7.0-15 hp vacuum pumps shall include an internal relief valve; pumps 6.4 hp and below do not.Each vacuum pump includes a built-in, anti-suckback valve mounted at the pump inlet.Each pump within the system shall include a check valve, inlet and discharge flex connectors, an inlet filter and a pump isolation valve. Motor The motor is continuous duty, C-face, TEFC, suitable for 208-230, or 460 V, 3 phase, 60 hertz electrical operation. Air Receiver The system shall include an ASME rated air receiver. The tank shall be internally lined and come with a manual drain and sight gauge. Systems with Basic Controls are also equipped with a vacuum gauge. Receiver is plumbed so that system vacuum must pass through the air receiver prior to the pumps to provide additional protection for the pumps. Premium NFPA Control Panel The control system provides automatic lead/lag sequencing and automatic alternation of all pumps in order to equalize the amount of usage among the available vacuum pumps. The Premium NFPA Control Panel shall include a gateway server card and all features listed below:PLC controller and a 6" color touch screen panel which displays the operating status of the unitBuilding automation communication gateway with BacNet® protocol and Web server features. Web server features include email notifications in case the system is in alarm or has achieved one its maintenance intervals and requires service.Ethernet port for connection to BacNet® server or direct connection to facility Ethernet for viewing of system operations and status via device IP-addressUL508A listed control panel in a NEMA 12 enclosure. The panel door will include: the color touch screen, audible and visual alarms with an acknowledge button, and an HOA switch for each pumpMagnetic startersVacuum transducer for process controlSingle point power connectionRedundant 120 VAC control transformers with fused primary and secondary protectionSystem overload trip, high temperature conditions, low vacuum or maintenance intervals for the pump will result in visual and audible alarms. Optional Auto Purge Controls Optional Auto PurgeProvides extra protection for pumps by performing a fresh air flush before shutting downAir or electric auto purge control options availableAuto purge controls are available as an option for those processes requiring a fresh air flush before shutting down the off load pumps. The minimum run and auto purge functions are combined in the control as appropriate. Pumps will run through an automatic purge cycle every 60 minutes (after alternation phase), to purge any gases from the pump to atmosphere. A 3-position switch is provided to select automatic purge, manual purge, or purge off modes. The screen shot to the left simulates a quadplex system, with pumps 1 and 2 making vacuum to meet demand, pump 3 purging and pump 4 in ready mode should demand increase. Auto purge features include:15 min. purge cycle per pumpPump will be put away clean (after completed purge cycle) when it is not needed to meet demandLow vacuum alarm which indicates high usage or service requirement for other pump(s)Our standard auto purge option will use a pneumatic actuated valve. The electric auto purge option will use an electric valve.Note: This option is available with our Premium NFPA Control Panel. It is not available on systems with Basic NFPA controls.Systems with the auto purge feature will include:Control and operation of air actuated and/or electric isolation and purge valves3-position mode switch (Auto-Off-Manual)Pump Status (pump On, Pump Ready, Pump Off, Pump Purging)Pumps will run through an automatic purge cycle every 24 hours (after alternation phase), to purge any gases from the pump to atmosphere. A 3-position switch is provided to select automatic purge, manual purge, or purge off modes. (Note: Pneumatic purge isolation valves require 80 psi compressed air to be field supplied.) Why Powerex® Service Powerex® has an extensive network of trained sales and service dealers - over 220 authorized service centers throughout the United States, Canada, the Middle East, Central and South Americas.In order to maintain a high level of service, we offer our distributors the chance to participate in our in-house training sessions to be up-to-date on our product offerings, installation and start-up procedures and troubleshooting solutions. Engineering Due to our vertical integration and full in-house engineering staff, Powerex® has the ability to customize both electrical control panels as well as the mechanical portion of the system to meet a wide variety of customer needs.Thanks to our continuous process improvement policy and how easily our Sales, Customer Service, Engineering and Production teams can communicate with each other and our end customers, we are constantly figuring out ways to improve our current products and add new products to our standard offerings. Innovation Powerex® was the first company to package NFPA 99 compliant scroll systems. Today, we design and manufacture multiple NFPA 99 compliant product lines - Vacuum, Air, and Instrument Air.We were the first company to utilize composite piston technology, now standard on all Powerex® reciprocating compressors. Powerex® also introduced the first dry scroll to the US oil-less compressor market in 1989. The scroll pump’s completely dry compressor chamber along with the low noise and minimal vibration is perfect for applications or locations not considered with reciprocating compressors. Quality Powerex® is a highly integrated operation where we not only assemble systems, but we also manufacture many of the major components. From compressors, UL control panels, desiccant dryers, monitors to air receivers, we control quality at every stage of design and manufacturing. All of our facilities are ISO 9001 certified.Unlike our competition, we have used the same compressor brand for decades and also retain the same company ownership since our inception. This allows us to maintain quality and provide consistency in our product offerings year after year. The Latest Innovation from Powerex® Laboratory Vacuum Systems Extremely reliable because of proven claw and oil sealed rotary vane technologiesGreat for applications in the research field-from simpler applications like a high school chemistry lab to more complicated applications in biomedical research and everything in-betweenMultiplex systems have built in redundancy capabilitiesSystems built under same standards as all our medical air and vacuum life support systemsHMI, PBMI and Basic controls availableOptional auto purge control feature available with HMI or PBMI controlsKnowing the type of research, application and what process gases are being used are key in determining the best vacuum pump technology - lubricated vane or claw - to use for your laboratory application.

The air is compressed by the rotors, then discharged through a silencer to atmosphere. The pumping chamber is dry. There is no contact between the rotors or the cylinder wall eliminating internal wear and parts to replace. The rotors are synchronized by gears requiring a small amount of oil in the gear housing. Gear oil change requirements are minimal at approximately 20,000 hours. Note This option is available for systems with Standard HMI controls or Optional PBMI controls. It is not available on systems with Basic controls.Please specify which (air or electric) auto purge option you would like when ordering.For Air Flow at 19 inHg, Compressor Capacity, System Full Load Current (F.L.A) at 208 V, System Full Load Current (F.L.A) at 230 V, System Full Load Current (F.L.A) at 460 V - scfm, Btu and FLA values listed are with all pumps running.
