Quick Guide: Sizing Your Vacuum Pump

The "Fast Evacuation" Formula

A pump alone isn't enough. To speed up your evacuation time by up to 50%, follow these rules:

• Remove Cores: Valve cores restrict flow by 90%. Always use a Core Removal Tool.
• Use Large Hoses: 1/4" hoses are for charging, not evacuating. Use a 3/8" or 1/2" Evacuation Hose.
• Verify with Microns: Analogue gauges are inaccurate for vacuum. Use a Digital Micron Gauge to prove you hit 500 microns.
• Change Oil: Wet/cloudy oil kills pump performance. Change your Vacuum Oil frequently.

Maintenance

To keep your equipment running efficiently and extend its lifespan, routine care is essential. Always monitor your fluid condition and levels before a job; replace dirty, milky, or contaminated fluids with premium vacuum pump oil to ensure your pump continues to pull deep, fast vacuums.
