Dear JAVAC Customer,

With the world's financial markets in turmoil and our own dollar experiencing a dramatic fall, there is a tendency to stop what we are doing, stall future plans and take a 'wait-and-see' approach. Unfortunately, doing this is what creates the problems, and who knows where we would end up.

Here at JAVAC it's full steam ahead. Sure, we've had to make a few adjustments but we're taking a positive approach, so watch out for upcoming Christmas specials and pre-exchange rate pricing offers.

The end of the year is looming, and itÕs surprising how quickly time flies once we reach November. If your vacuum pump needs servicing, you'll need to get it to us as soon as possible. Our service personnel are expecting a busy few weeks so act now to avoid any hassles further down the track.

In this issue we offer our expert advice on selecting the right vacuum pump, highlight the savings that can be made on existing stock of LABOPORT pumps and showcase some of the key products in our automotive range.

I wish you all success in the lead up to Christmas.

Andrew F. Davies
Managing Director

The Genuine Advantage

Selecting the Right Vacuum Pump for You

When it comes to selecting the correct vacuum pump for your application there are a number of issues that need to be considered. There is a vast array of vacuum pumps available Ð Rotary Vane, Diaphragm, Screw and Turbo pumps just to name a few. The two main specs required for selecting the correct pump are the vacuum level and the flow rate. Once these have been established the range of pumps available for your application will be less confusing.

The next thing you need to look at is the application itself. Is it a clean room application? Is it a large industrial job where there is plenty of water vapour?

These elements need to be discussed and considered carefully. The next subject is the material of the pump. Some applications are subject to a high amount of corrosive or acidic vapours, so Teflon or Stainless Steel will need to be a major component of the pump. Some pumps however cannot offer a high grade of protection so a special type of oil is required. This is the case with rotary vane pumps.

Power supply is another important aspect. This can be single phase, three phase, DC supply; sometimes even frequency converters are necessary.

It is important that you also consider the type of protection required. The pump could be in a hazardous area which could possibly cause an explosion if the motor is not of the correct protection class.

As you can see there are a number of variations and performance elements that need to be taken into account when selecting a vacuum pump for your next job. If you are unsure about what is available or need assistance then please call us. JAVAC are the home grown Australian experts when it comes to vacuum pumps and equipment.
