Alcatel Rotary Vane VacuumPump

The first major repair service offered by Advanced Vacuum Company at its inception in 1972 was for the work-horse of the industry at the time, the rotary-vane vacuum pump. ADVACO’s extensive knowledge of rotary-vane vacuum pump repair and state-of-the-art facility enables us to offer service that is unsurpassed in the industry. All rotary vane vacuum pumps, including Alcatel, Leybold, BOC Edwards, Welch, Precision, Hyvac, Kinney, Stokes, Varian, Savant, Thermo Savant, and Labconco, are rebuilt to meet – and often exceed – OEM performance specifications.

Rotary Vane Pump Assembly

The rebuild process for your rotary vane vacuum pump will begin with complete disassembly and cleaning in order to assess the condition of all critical components of the pump. All consumable parts are quoted for replacement and major parts are inspected for scoring, hot spots, burrs, pitting, corrosion, and general wear. Depending on the severity of damage, any necessary major parts are quoted for remanufacturing or replacement. The electric motor is also inspected during the evaluation and will be quoted for repair as needed. Once the evaluation of your pump is completed a detailed failure analysis report and firm rebuild quote will be forwarded to you for review and approval.

Extensive testing is performed after every rebuild.

After approval of the rebuild has been received all parts will go through a final cleaning before assembly by a trained vacuum pump technician. Assembly is followed by a 24 hour run-in of the pump and testing on ADVACO’s computerized test system. The ADVACO test system monitors ultimate vacuum, time to base pressure, pumping speed, and stability of speed. This gives you the most complete picture of your rebuilt pumps performance. Once performance is verified to meet new pump specifications, the rebuilt pump is painted the appropriate OEM color and prepared for return shipment to your facility
