Applications
Steam jet pumps are particularly appropriate as vacuum pumps, as they can easily handle large vacuum volumes.
Single stage jet pumps, which convey against atmospheric pressure are used for the production of vacuum down to a suction pressure of approx. 100 mbar.
For lower suction pressures multi-stage steam jet vacuum pumps are used, with or without intermediate condensation.
Mode of operation
Steam jet vacuum pumps have a tailor-made design depending on the individual requirements.
In this way optimum efficiency is achieved.
Advantages
- No moving parts
- Easy handling of even very large suction flows
- Low maintenance cost
- Long life
- High reliability and safety of operation
- Low priced, low operating cost
- Manufacture from various materials of construction

The water equation
Across Europe, drought is a recurring reality – and no longer confined to the south. While water increasingly shapes where industries locate, its value is determined by local context. There are many technological routes to water efficiency in industrial processes, but location, energy needs and other factors are also key.
