Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0723080A1] A vessel is evacuated and a vacuum maintained by a first, radial, pump and throttle valve and a second, rotary piston, pump in a pipe parallel, and connected, to that for the first pump. Control valves enable the first pump to extract at higher pressure and the second at lower pressure. The vessel (1), required to be evacuated, is connected to a radial pump (4) through a throttle valve (5) and a pipe (7). A rotary piston pump (13) is connected to the pipe (7) at a junction point (11). Control valves (14,15) determine whether the first pump alone or the second pump in series reduces the pressure in the vessel, according to the pressure value. The second pump alone can function through a back-pressure valve (19) in a pipe (18).
