Medical Vacuum Systems

We at PumpAir Solutions have combined the local market knowledge and experience with technical expertise of world renowned manufacturer. We have developed a Modular design that enables us to quickly modify any unit to meet your exact specifications.
The necessity to keep all the noise sources away from point of use has urged us to develop a complete range of vacuum units mounted on vessels/Base Frames to satisfy all needs. The pumps work together or with lead-lag controller according to vacuum requirements and ensuring that supply is maintained uninterrupted.
Our sales and engineering team based in Australia goes to site to critically examine the application and then can specify a system to ideally meet your requirements. This combination of experience, expertise and pre- design means you get what you need – faster.

Advantages of Central Vacuum Systems

  • Silent Service – The system is installed away from point of use. Moreover our CV systems are quieter and vibration free as compared to many available on the market.
  • Economy of scale – One central system for each building. Reticulated pipe work is more economical than multiple, individual vacuum pumps.
  • Reduced Maintenance – One system to check means less labour and less chance of forgot ten service avoiding breakdown.
  • Fail Safe- Dual vacuum pump system offers fail safe operation not possible on individual room units.
  • Increased service Life- Central vacuum system pumps switch off automatically when there is no demand.
  • Package systems- Installation requires only connection of power and vacuum line on small package systems and on larger systems all components are supplied so that sub assemblies can be easily put together.
  • You choose the pump- Rotary vane pumps for general use, high vacuum oil sealed for laboratories, oil free for dry applications, water sealed liquid ring type for wet/dirty applications.
  • Automatic Operation- vacuum switches monitor vacuum levels and automatically operate pumps to keep vacuum at desired level.
