WelchNet is a powerful alternative to house vacuum; minimizes cross contamination and is easily adapted as needs change. Turrets interface between your vacuum application and rest of vacuum network.
- Quick and simple to install
- Easily controls flow rate
- Chemically resistant
- Built-in check valve for stable vacuum
- Two mount options
- Turrets, valves, and fume hood controls
WelchNet turrets are designed for easy installation
Vacuum provided by a WelchNet modular vacuum network is inherently more stable than a central vacuum system using standard lab turrets. The reason is the check valve within each WelchNet turret. The benefit of the check valve is it minimizes the risk of interference/cross contamination between applications when turrets are opened and closed.
All wetted surfaces of WelchNet turrets are made of chemically resistant materials. The turret body is black polypropylene. The check valve in the turret is made of perfluoroelastomer (FFKM) and the wetted flow regulator is made of polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF).
A flush mount turret hides the vacuum tubing in the wall, bench or hood. A surface mount turret is commonly used when tubing cannot be installed behind a wall.
