VACUUBRAND MD 12 NT Diaphragm Pump is a powerful, oil-free vacuum solution engineered for continuous evacuation and pumping of non-aggressive gases. Designed with a robust three-stage, eight-cylinder system, it delivers exceptional performance with a high flow rate, deep ultimate vacuum, and remarkably quiet operation. Ideal for applications in physics, analytics, vacuum ovens, degassing viscous media, exhaust gas analysis, and as a backing pump for large turbomolecular drag pumps.
Key Features:
- Ultimate vacuum of 2 mbar (1.5 Torr) with maximum pumping speed of 7.1 CFM at 60 Hz
- Three-stage, eight-cylinder design provides high throughput and stable vacuum levels
- Oil-free, contamination-free pumping — no back diffusion or oil carryover
- Fabric-reinforced FKM diaphragms for extended lifetime and minimal maintenance
- Exceptionally quiet operation at 50 dBA with low vibration — ideal for sensitive instruments
- Corrosion-resistant flow path of aluminum, stainless steel, and selected plastics
- Compact footprint with smooth, easy-to-clean surfaces
- Reliable choice over rotary vane pumps for many applications
