Very clean and in good condition. This pump was pulled from a working system. Hand spinning the casing shows the rotor assembly freely spinning with no resistence. The control board had a dead short and was removed from the pump so this unit is best suited to replace an bad pump on a working controller.
AGILENT VARIAN TV-301 NAVIGATOR TURBOMOLECULAR VACUUM PUMP are widely used in high energy physics, fusion technology, general UHV research, synchrotron light sources, particle accelerator rings, and fusion reactors and needed in extremely clean, reliable and cost effective high- and ultra high-vacuum applications
Varian offers a complete range of turbomolecular pumps, to cover all possible applications and market segments.
Maximizing performance at minimum cost and size: this is our design mission. Our use of technology ensures maximum performance without compromising pump size, cost, or reliability. We use our technologies to meet the mainstream of our customers’ applications, providing them with high performance, reliable pumping solutions at a competitive cost.
The most effective pumping stage technology currently available. Thanks to this powerful Varian innovation you can:
– maximize the throughput of the pump
– extend the foreline tolerance up to 18 mbar
– increase the compression ratio by decades, most notably for light gases without compromising the size or weight of the pump. In fact, the MacroTorr® stages set in the V301 Navigator is hosted in the space of one inch.
Varian has been always focused on high throughput applications. Thanks to state-of-the-art numerical modeling tools, pumping stages are designed to minimize the power consumption.
Special care is given to the thermal design of the cooling fins and the internal temperature distribution, to ensure efficient operation.
Our patented cutting tools and EDM process, combined with a sophisticated CAD/CAM manufacturing operation, allow Varian to produce pump rotors from a single piece of high tech aluminum alloy. This major technological achievement improves the life of the pump for different reasons:
– the weight of the rotor is minimized, allowing installation of the pump in absolutely any position without compromising the pump performance
– the lighter the pump structure, the lower the stresses on the material and on the bearings themselves, resulting in longer pump life!
No oil, no refill, no contamination. This is our design philosophy. All of our pumps are designed around ceramic ball bearing technology.
Ceramic is lighter, harder, smoother, and thermally more stable than any steel. So a ceramic ball bearing can run faster, hotter and more quietly than any steel ball bearing. The lubrication of the bearings is critical. After years of research Varian has developed its proprietary Dry Lubrication technology to guarantee excellent pump life time in any position and in any gas load working condition. Thanks to ceramic bearings and Dry Lubrication technology, you can count on an ultimate MTTF of our products of 120,000 h plus. Thanks to Varian, performance has never been so reliable.
Operating and controlling a turbomolecular pump has never been so simple. Thanks to our T-plus Software you can connect your laptop directly to the pump control unit and start to use it. You can start or stop the pump, as well as check its temperature and gas load conditions. You can also monitor pump parameters over time, as well as do straightforward diagnostics directly on the vacuum system with a click of the mouse in the Windows™ based environment. From buttons to charts to dialoggers, everything is simple in our T-plus Software.
Working with a foreline pressure as high as 18 mbar yields a substantial advantage: the size of the primary pump can be significantly reduced such that even a backing pump as small as the 5 m3/hr SH-100 (dry) or DS 102 can be used to operate our V 301 Navigator in all its pumping profiles. Thanks to one of the features of the MacroTorr® technology you can now reduce the cost of your vacuum system and get better performance at the same time.
