Abstract (en)

The present invention proposes an evacuation apparatus including a mechanical booster pump (5), a back pump (3) placed at a down-stream side of the mechanical booster pump in series, the booster pump (5) having discharge openings (27a and 27b) for discharging a low compression gas and a discharge opening (29) for discharging a high compression gas, and, in a stage where gas-discharging is started, the gas is discharged toward the ambient side only through the discharge opening (29) for discharging a high compression gas with the operation of the mechanical booster pump and, in a stage where the discharged gas pressure reaches afterward a medium vacuum, the back pump starts operation and the gas is sent to the back pump only through the discharge openings (27a and 27b) for discharging a low compression gas.
