Hick Hargreaves gives a boost to processing
15 Jan 2000
The High Vacuum Division of Hick Hargreaves is on stand D29 in Hall 8 with a range of high vacuum mechanical boosters (Roots type vacuum blowers).
The MB range covers the range 405-5700m3/h to offer general purpose performance for a wide variety of applications. They feature lip-type shaft seals and internal labyrinth seals with gas purge. Typical applications have included distillation, drying, cooling, freeze drying and CVD processes, often as multi-stage systems supported by liquid ring or dry-running vacuum pumps.
For more aggressive applications such as polyester production and toxic chemical handling, the MBS range offers 175-5600m3/h. These boosters are available with internal mechanical seals and feature increased power handling capability for high differential pressure operation.
The MBH is a large capacity range offering 7000-26 000m3/h. Incorporating many of the features of the MB and MBS ranges, these boosters are for larger applications where steam ejectors may be traditionally used.
