Chemistry diaphragm pumps down to 1.5 mbar
VARIO ® chemistry pumping unit
PC 3001 VARIO
This popular VARIO ® chemistry pumping unit provides vacuum control by precise and continuous adaptation of the
diaphragm pump's motor speed. The integrated CVC 3000 vacuum controller is able to perform fully automatic evaporations
with the push of a button. The compact size and low weight of the pumping unit offer great convenience in
the lab. The pump’s variable motor speed responds to demand, reducing energy waste and mechanical wear, ensuring
unrivalled service life for the diaphragms. The pumping unit is also popular for its nearly silent operation. The PC
3001 is based on our MD 1C VARIO-SP chemistry diaphragm pump; its 2 mbar ultimate
vacuum is ideal for applications even with high-boiling-point sol- vents. The
highly efficient and insulated exhaust vapor condenser has a very compact
design, and provides near-100-percent recovery of solvents.

APPLICATIONS
This pumping unit is ideal for vacuum applications with
high-boiling-solvents. The hysteresis-free vacuum control
prevents superheating and foaming and therefore protects
samples and ensures a constantly high process safety. The
unique controller automatically detects vapor pressure
and automatically adjusts the vacuum level to the process
requirements, making it ideal even for complex evaporations.
If cooling water is not available or water conservation
is critical, consider the PC 3001 VARIO TE with dry
ice condenser, or the PC 3001 VARIO with the coolant-free
PeltronicTM condenser. For exceptionally large amounts of
vapor, the PC 3001 VARIO +IK — with an additional condenser
on the vacuum side — is an excellent choice.
