Vacuubrand MD 1 Diaphragm Pump: Reliable Performance for Critical Medical Applications
The MD 1 diaphragm pump developed by Vacuubrand is the solution of choice for professionals in the medical and laboratory sectors who require precise and clean vacuum conditions. This model operates without oil, eliminating any risk of cross-contamination, a decisive factor in sensitive environments such as clinical laboratories, biomedical research centres or pharmaceutical facilities.
Its design is based on a three-stage system using flat membranes, which are carefully guided to maximise pumping performance. Compared to two-stage pumps with an equivalent ultimate vacuum, the MD 1 offers a higher flow rate, optimising the speed and efficiency of filtration, drying or vacuum evaporation processes.
Thanks to the use of carefully selected materials such as aluminium for the pump body and FKM (fluoroelastomer) for the membranes and valves, the MD 1 guarantees increased wear resistance while ensuring compatibility with non-aggressive gases. Its quiet operation (only 40 dBA) and low vibration allow for discreet integration into medical workplaces without disrupting sensitive operations.
Another major advantage is the reliability and durability of the diaphragms, which allow for prolonged use without frequent maintenance, thus reducing downtime. It is also perfectly suited to ambient temperatures between 10 and 40 °C, which corresponds to medical laboratory standards.
Compact (326 x 143 x 215 mm) and lightweight (7.3 kg), the MD 1 is easy to integrate into a variety of layouts, even the most confined. It is compatible with different types of mains plugs (CEE, CH, UK, US), making it a flexible model for international use. NRTL certification confirms its compliance with North American safety standards, ensuring reliable use in certified medical facilities.
Designed to meet the technical and sanitary requirements of the medical field, the MD 1 is an essential tool for ensuring a clean, stable and high-performance vacuum, while offering optimal user comfort for laboratory operators.
