Agilent Technologies: new line of turbomolecular high vacuum pumps Agilent Technologies: new line of turbomolecular high vacuum pumps

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 26, 2010

Agilent Technologies Inc. today announced a new line of turbomolecular high vacuum pumps, well-suited for ultra-high vacuum (UHV) applications requiring the highest level of compression ratios for light gases.
Using patented TwisTorr molecular drag technology, Agilent has developed the Turbo-V 750 TwisTorr, the Turbo-V 850 TwisTorr and the Turbo-V 2300 TwisTorr. The new turbomolecular pumps greatly increase pumping efficiency in a very compact space and provide significant improvements in performance. Turbomolecular high vacuum pumps are used for various applications including analytical instrumentation; thin film deposition; space simulation; fusion technology; particle accelerators and synchrotrons; and other industrial applications.
The TwisTorr technology represents a significant step in the evolution of hybrid turbo high vacuum pumps, said Giampaolo Levi, vice president and general manager of Agilent's Vacuum Products Division.     more
