Scroll pumps are increasingly replacing traditional vacuum systems in medical and industrial applications. The white paper linked below outlines why: lower maintenance, quieter operation, and better energy efficiency. If you're evaluating vacuum solutions for your lab, manufacturing line, or imaging equipment, this paper gives you the technical and operational data to make a confident decision.

Why Scroll Pumps Are Gaining Ground

Legacy vacuum systems—rotary vane, diaphragm, piston—come with trade-offs: oil contamination, vibration, noise, and frequent servicing. Scroll pumps eliminate most of these issues. Their dry, contact-free design reduces wear and extends service intervals. They’re also quieter and more compact, making them ideal for sensitive environments like MRI suites or cleanrooms.

  • The paper breaks down:
  • Design advantages: How orbiting scrolls compress gas without oil or contact
  • Performance metrics: Flow rates, ultimate vacuum levels, and noise profiles
  • Cost analysis: Total cost of ownership vs. traditional pumps
  • Use cases: Imaging, diagnostics, lab automation, and more
Scroll Pump Technology and Benefits

FAQs

Scroll pumps operate with fewer moving parts and no metal-on-metal contact, which significantly reduces vibration and noise.
