Oil sealed rotary vane vacuum pumps are being used in all areas of
vacuum engineering. They are equally suited for both industrial
production and research applications. They may be used to generate a
rough and medium vacuum or as backing pumps in pump combinations with
Roots pumps or high vacuum pumps. The SOGEVAC pumps excel also to
their low noise
levels and smooth operation.
Many years of experience in vacuum engineering and the latest
developments in pump technology combine in the SOGEVAC range the
capability to adapt to the requirements of both
the industry and the environment. The comprehensive range (pumping
speeds ranging from 10 to 1200 m3 x h-1 (5.9 to 707 cfm)) allows every
customer to select the right pump for his particular needs.

Design Principle
SOGEVAC pumps are oil sealed rotary vane pumps. Oil injected into
the pump chamber for sealing, lubrication and cooling of the pump is
recycled from the pump's oil reservoir and filtered, if required,
before it is injected. The lubricant system is rated for continuous
operation at high intake pressures so that the pumps may be used in
a versatile manner in most rough vacuum applications (accessories
are required for some pumps).
The oil carried with the process gas is roughly separated in the oil
box before the discharged gas enters the integrated exhaust filters
where the fine oil mist is trapped. The thus filtered
oil is collected in the oil box and then supplied back to the pump.
This demister system, optimized to suit all operating conditions of
the vacuum pump ensures oil-mist free exhaust gas (degree of
separation over 99.9%) even at high intake pressures and when
pumping vapors.
Leybold rotary vane pumps from the SOGEVAC series excel through
numerous special features:
Compact Design
The pumps have been so designed that efficiency of the pumps will be
high. For the SV 10 B through SV 65 B, the motor and pumping
section use the same shaft. For the SV 100 B to
SV 1200 the motor is linked depending on requirements to the pumping
section directly via a coupling or via V-belts as a pedestal motor.
All vacuum components like anti-suckback,
exhaust filter with oil return line needed for a complete vacuum
unit as well as the optimized placement of all controls and
monitoring components allow for an extremely compact unit.
Quiet Operation
SOGEVAC pumps are designed throughout to keep the noise level as low
as possible. This is ensured by optimized running and sliding speeds
and the selection of low-noise drive motors, as well as perfected
manufacturing techniques using CNC automatic machines for optimized
tolerances and reproducibility of the individual components.
Anti-Suckback Valve
A valve is built into the intake of the SOGEVAC pumps. This "anti-suckback
valve" is protected by a metal wire-mesh filter. During standstill
of the pump (for example due to shutting down or a power failure)
the valve closes the intake. This prevents the pressure from rising
in the connected chamber while the pump is vented at the same time.
Any suckback of pump oil into the vacuum system is thus also
effectively prevented.
This blocking process operates under all operating conditions (below
800 mbar (600 Torr)) and
even when the gas ballast valve is open.
Protection of the Environment
The built-in exhaust filter ensures an oil-mist free exhaust gas
over the entire range of operating pressures - from atmospheric
pressure to ultimate pressure.
Supplied Equipment
All pumps are delivered with the required quantity of oil: SV 10 B
to SV 65 B in a separate canister, whereas the SV 100 B and larger
pumps already contain the oil and are thus ready for operation.
