The proven liquid ring principle allows the reliable conveying of moist, contaminated and condensable gases as well as vapours. Thanks to the robust construction and the continuous cooling by the operating liquid, the DOLPHIN series offers a durable and versatile solution for numerous industrial vacuum applications.
Reliable with moist gases
The proven liquid ring principle allows reliable operation even with moist, contaminated or condensable gases and vapours.
Robust and durable
The robust construction and the continuous cooling by the operating liquid allow reliable operation even under demanding process conditions. At the same time, maintenance requirements are kept low.
Versatile in use
The DOLPHIN series is suitable for numerous industrial vacuum applications and, depending on the version, can be adapted to different process conditions and operating liquids. It is particularly suitable for processes involving moisture, vapours and condensable media.
Operating principle
The Busch DOLPHIN series works on the principle of liquid-sealed liquid ring vacuum technology. An eccentrically arranged impeller rotates inside the pump housing and forms a liquid ring by means of the operating liquid used. This ring creates the necessary working chambers, in which the gas drawn in is continuously taken in, compressed and then discharged through the outlet.
The operating liquid provides both the sealing and the cooling of the compression chamber. This makes the DOLPHIN series particularly suitable for applications in which moist, contaminated or condensable gases and vapours have to be conveyed reliably.
The robust pump design and the proven liquid ring principle allow reliable and durable operation even under demanding process conditions. Depending on the version, different operating liquids can be used, which allows the pumps to be adapted flexibly to various applications.
The DOLPHIN series is suitable for numerous industrial applications that call for reliable vacuum generation, high resistance to moisture and the conveying of condensable or contaminated gases.
