Vacuum pumps with hygienic design for daily cleaning
The new DV 650 and DV 800 FP-r washdown vacuum pumps (photo) of the dry-running Dryvac series have been introduced for vacuum systems used in food and packaging applications. The new screw vacuum pumps require only a small footprint and little installation space, and they can be washed down inside and outside in any installation position. Their compact size and low noise level enable uncomplicated, near-machine installation in the immediate vicinity of the production line. The advantage for users: during daily cleaning of the system, the DV 650/800 FP-r pumps can be washed down with the production equipment in one process. This results in fewer system downtimes, better cycle times, less maintenance, a higher standard of hygiene and higher filling and packaging outputs, the company says. — Leybold GmbH, Cologne, Germany
