The Leybold RUVAC WAU 2001 is a high-performance Roots blower designed to enhance vacuum systems by providing increased pumping speeds in the fine vacuum range. It serves as a booster stage for forevacuum pumps, effectively compressing large volumes of gases or vapours.

Key Features:

• High Pumping Speed: Delivers a nominal pumping speed of 2,050 m³/h (1,449 CFM) at 50 Hz, with a maximum pumping speed of 2,100 m³/h (1,476 CFM) at 60 Hz.
• Ultimate Pressure: Achieves an ultimate total pressure of less than 4 × 10⁻² mbar, ensuring efficient evacuation of vacuum systems.
• Motor Configuration: Equipped with a 10 hp (7.5 kW) motor at 50 Hz, the pump operates at rotational speeds of 3,000 min⁻¹ (50 Hz) and 3,600 min⁻¹ (60 Hz).
• Flexible Orientation: Designed for versatility, the RUVAC WAU 2001 can be installed in either vertical or horizontal positions, adapting to various system configurations.
• Durable Construction: Features robust bearings and an efficient lubrication system, contributing to quiet operation and extended service intervals.

Applications:

The RUVAC WAU 2001 is widely used in applications requiring high pumping speeds and reliable performance, including:

• Heat treatment processes
• Metallurgical applications
• Large area coating
