HiPace Turbopumps.

Compact, powerful turbopumps.

Pfeiffer Vacuum has brought to market a new line of compact yet powerful turbopumps under the name HiPace. These pace-setters range from pumping speeds of 10 to 700 liters per second. The pumps are characterized by their high cost-effectiveness and their flexibility in all installation orientations. The improved rotor design offers both high pumping speeds and high gas throughputs, coupled with very good compression for light gases. In addition to analytical, vacuum-process and semiconductor technology, their broad range of applications also includes coating, research & development and industrial applications.

New drive electronics. Optimal integration.

The integrated HiPace drive electronics reduce the need for cumbersome and costly cabling. Moreover, a variety of drive versions, including Profibus and DeviceNet, are available without any increase in physical size. The use of innovative materials has doubled the service life of the drives. And runup time has also been reduced. This means that the pumps are now able to go into service even faster. Remote and sensor functionalities allow analysis of pump data, such as temperatures. The functional aluminum housings make these pumps extremely light in weight. A sealing gas connection safeguards the bearings against particulate matter or oxidizing gases. This translates high reliability in both light duty and harsh duty applications. And their quiet operation and improved gas loads are setting new standards. The HiPace turbopumps are also available in corrosive-gas versions.
