RV oil sealed pumps have been the industry standard rotary vane pump for laboratory applications for many years thanks to design features that make them low cost to operate and maintain versus other rotary pumps.
With their unique mode selector, one pump can be used for both high throughput and high vacuum applications; selfcentring mechanism, no dowels to set and can replace any component; high vapour pumping capability and broad range of accessories makes RV pumps the best long term proposition for laboratory applications.
