VACUU•LAN® local vacuum networks provide modular, energy-efficient, high quality lab vacuum. With one pump supporting up to 16 workstations, they can be installed where and when needed, and provide bench vacuum at less than 10 mbar (7 Torr). VACUU•LAN® networks replace water-jet aspirators (which waste and pollute thousands of gallons of water a year), and central vacuum systems (which are an inflexible, energy-wasting and high-maintenance source of a low-grade vacuum supply). And a VACUU•LAN® network eliminates the interference between applications and cross-contamination among labs that is typical on a central vacuum system.
What are your building plans?
- Lab renovations benefit from the option of modernizing the vacuum utility one lab at a time.
- Multidisciplinary science buildings need different - and sometimes conflicting - vacuum character in different labs.
- Research parks, science incubators, and other multitenant buildings value the isolation of one client from another, both physically and for accounting purposes, as well as the modularity that allows them to defer investment until the specific need of the tenant is clear.
- Flexible design buildings benefit from the ability to relocate the vacuum utility as needed.
- Green construction projects value the right-sizing of the installation and the very substantial energy savings - often 70 to 90 percent - compared with central vacuum.
- Critical environments, like clean rooms and biological containment suites, benefit from vacuum that is isolated from vacuum supply to other lab spaces.
- Project value engineering efforts may determine that local vacuum networks - installed only where needed without compromise to future uses - may eliminate a building-wide utility and contribute long-term operating cost savings as well.
And all of these users enjoy the convenience of the quiet, low maintenance, oil-free vacuum pumps that power the networks.
