Oil-sealed screw pumps with VSD technology
Our new innovative and intelligent vacuum pump - the GHS VSD⁺ range of screw vacuum pumps with capacities up to 5004 m³/h - representing a real leap forward in the vacuum industry.
I am very impressed with the performance of the Atlas Copco pumps. Not only have they allowed us to achieve our production increase and maintain a constant vacuum level to ensure consistent product quality, they are also quieter, occupy a footprint that’s only the size of a pallet and, better still, provide the added bonus of a potential 60% reduction in the energy demand for the process.
The Atlas Copco GHS 350 VSD⁺ vacuum pumps handle the humid production environment at Ibstock. In the humid versions of the GHS VSD⁺ pumps, electronically controlled gas ballast and temperature management allows adaptation to the plant’s specific process and enables the pumps to handle 100% water vapour at pressures above 30 mbar(a). The gas ballast is automatically switched and pre-and-post purge cycles are provided and controlled within the unit.
In contrast to ‘on-off’ control standards of other vacuum technologies, the GHS VSD⁺ pumps feature a unique pressure set point control function that ensures the pumps maintain a constant reliable level of vacuum however variable the production demand. This has helped Ibstock maintain consistent product quality, achieve increased productivity and benefit from the added bonus of a potential 60% energy saving.
