If you're working in a lab that handles biohazards, solvents, or particulates, you need a vacuum system that protects both your samples and your team. The Welch 2511 Series Aspiration/Filtration Vacuum Systems are built for that purpose. These oil-free diaphragm pumps are engineered to support aspiration, filtration, and degassing tasks with consistent vacuum performance and minimal maintenance.

This manual covers three models:

  • 2511B-76
  • 2511C-77
  • 2511B-75 (not listed in the title but referenced in the document)

Each model is optimized for different lab setups, with variations in vacuum control, bottle capacity, and filtration options.
