PILOT Series Diaphragm Vacuum Pumps
Manufacturer: The Lab Depot
Description
The pump's key benefit is its exceptional chemical resistance. All contact surfaces are PTFE-coated, with a durable PTFE membrane and stainless steel valves, making it ideal for use with organic/aqueous solvents and light acid/base solutions. It is even safe for use with bleach and acetone vapors, making it perfect for cell culture decontamination protocols. A liquid inlet trap with a ball check valve provides crucial protection from accidental ingestion of liquids, while the included vacuum regulator allows you to adjust and monitor the vacuum level. With a noise level of only ~54 dB and a diaphragm membrane rated for 15,000 hours of use, this pump is built for long-term, quiet performance.
