Claw Vacuum Pumps
Overview
The ICV-ICP series pumps are dry contact-less vacuum and compressor pumps with modular constructions consisting of compartments: pumping and gear chambers are separated by labyrinth seals. When the two claws rotate in opposite direction the air is sucked in the pumping chamber, compressed and discharged under pressure. In the gear chamber two gears with appropriate oil lubrication are placed for synchronizing the claws rotation. A built in anti-suck back valve installed in inlet flange will prevent the air from flowing back into the vacuum chamber when the pump is shutdown. The pumps are directly driven by a flanged motor through a coupling.
