The TV 903 Pumping System is an integrated system with a turbo-molecular
pump for high and ultra-high vacuum applications with its relevant controller.
The system can pumps any type of gas or gas compound. It is not suitable for
pumping liquids or solid particles.
The pumping action is obtained through a high speed turbine (max. 48000
rpm) driven by a high-performance 3-phase electric motor. The TV 903
Pumping System is free of contaminating agents and, therefore, is suitable for
applications requiring a "clean" vacuum.
It is equipped with auxiliary connectors to supply an additional fan, to be
controlled from a remote site by means of an host computer connected through
a serial line (RS232 or RS485).
The following paragraphs contain all the information necessary to guarantee
the safety of the operator when using the equipment. Detailed information is
