Agilent MS40+: Reliable Performance and Compact Design for Scientific Applications
The Agilent MS40+ rotary vane pump is specifically designed to meet the demands of laboratories and industrial users seeking stable low-pressure pumping performance. It stands out with its ability to deliver a constant flow rate of 40 m³/h at 5 mbar and an ultimate total pressure below 5x10⁻² mbar, all within a compact footprint (418 x 297 x 228 mm).
Equipped with integrated electronics and a variable frequency drive, the MS40+ allows adjustment of the pumping speed (from 40 to 60 Hz) to suit application needs. This ensures optimized energy consumption (nominal power 0.75 kW), significantly reduces start-up current (<10 A), and enables a low-speed standby mode. This adaptability makes it ideal for integration into complex systems such as LC-MS, ICP-MS, GC-TOF-MS instruments, and electron microscopy setups.
Its quiet operation (≤ 62 dB(A)) and monoblock design—including an exhaust filter, anti-suckback valve, and oil return kit—simplify maintenance while ensuring high reliability. With oil maintained at 60°C and a maximum capacity of one liter, the pump performs efficiently even under demanding operating conditions, within an ambient temperature range of 12 to 40°C.
The RS232/RS485 interface and digital I/O make it easy to integrate into automated systems. The optional T-Plus Navigator software provides full PC-based control of the pump, enabling adjustment of settings and monitoring of oil level, temperature, current, and power consumption.
Its compact design facilitates installation in space-constrained environments while maintaining optimal pumping efficiency. With available flange options (DN 25KF or 40KF), it accommodates various connection standards.
The MS40+ is a smart choice for laboratories seeking a stable, durable, and energy-efficient vacuum solution that’s easy to integrate.
