Vacuum Pumping Kits for the PELCO® Vacuum Desiccator Cabinets:



3436 Diaphragm Pump Kit for the #2251 Vacuum Desiccator

This dry pumping kit consists of the #3436 diaphragm pump with 3 feet of ¼” thick wall silicone hose. This is a cost efficient solution  suitable for moderate vacuum requirements. Achievable vacuum level is in the 200mbar range. For higher vacuum levels, a two stage rotary pump would be more suitable. Available in both 115V and 230V.
