MPC 903 Z Series

  • Two-stage compression: 100 lpm flow @60Hz / 5 mbar ultimate pressure
  • 4-head design in a compact 250×390×185 mm footprint
  • Full PTFE chemical-duty wetted materials, Gen 3 head platform
  • Oil-free, low-noise (≤ 44 dB(A)), continuous-duty capable
  • Integrated gas ballast valve; motor thermal protection

High-Flow Two-Stage Chemical-Duty Diaphragm Pump

The Welch MPC 903 Z delivers an outstanding combination of high pumping speed and reliable deep vacuum in a 4-head, two-stage chemical-duty platform. The MPC 903 Z features 4 heads / 2 stages with Gen 3 head technology, producing a free air capacity of 110 lpm @60Hz / 100 lpm @50Hz with an ultimate pressure of 5 mbar / 3.8 Torr.

This two-stage configuration strikes the optimal balance between flow volume and vacuum depth, making the MPC 903 Z well suited for vacuum distillation, vacuum filtration, and handling aggressive vapors. Its large pumping capacity makes it a preferred choice for multi-station laboratory setups, larger-scale evaporation systems, and applications requiring continuous solvent vapor removal.

The device is a dry-running diaphragm vacuum pump, suitable for conveying neutral gaseous media and for use in laboratories and industry when working in rough vacuum conditions.Wetted materials include a PTFE with carbon-fiber reinforced pump head, PTFE vacuum hoses, PEEK valves, EPDM seals, and a PTFE-coated elastomer diaphragm, ensuring full chemical compatibility with aggressive solvents and acids.

Available in 230V 50/60Hz (415742) and 115V 50/60Hz (415742-01).
