Rotary vane pump oil, B
Rotary vane pump oil, B has excellent viscosity characteristics and low vapour pressure. Its exceptional chemical resistance, more stable behaviour when pumping oxidants, acid and alkaline vapours, and the fact that it is better tolerated on contact with skin, sets this oil apart from conventional mineral oils. Even after continuous operation for several weeks and months, the oil ensures the pressure is maintained constantly. Used for priming all RE/RZ series pumps.

Supplier: M I MATERIALS

Medium temperature vacuum grease. Silicone-free. Used when a grease of higher melting point is required.

Supplier: M I MATERIALS

Apiezon N Grease exhibits extremely low vapour pressures at ambient temperatures, 6×10^-10 torr at 20 °C, which are further improved by reductions in temperature to the cryogenic region.

Supplier: Welch by Gardner Denver

A specially fractionated oil for DuoSeal® belt-driven pumps is designed to ensure the highest vacuum performance. The oil is tested to high vacuum levels to meet rigid requirements for vapor pressure, vacuum level stability, and viscosity. DuoSeal® oil is famous for its quality and consistency.
