Diaphragm pump
MD 12
The MD 12 diaphragm pump is an especially powerful pump for oil-free evacuation and pumping of non aggressive
gases. The three-stage construction of the eight-head pump provides the advantageous combination of very high
pumping speed and excellent ultimate vacuum. The flowpath consists of aluminum, stainless steel and carefully
selected plastics (diaphragms and valves made of FPM) to permit a wide range of applications. The fabric-reinforced
double diaphragms are made of highly flexible FPM for extended operating life. The special ("double star") design
offers quiet, continuous-duty reliability even at high inlet pressure.

The MD 12 is an excellent choice for continuous, oil-free
evacuation and pumping of non-aggressive gases, especially
for applications in physics and analytics. Due to the
very good ultimate vacuum, the MD 12 is often used as
an alternative to rotary vane pumps, for vacuum ovens,
for very quick and efficient degassing of viscous media,
and especially as backing pump for large turbomolecular
drag pumps.
