About the series
Features and benefits of the PANDA/PUMA series
The series at a glance
The oil-free and contact-free operating principle ensures economical and reliable operation. Thanks to a wide selection of sizes and versions, the boosters can be optimally adapted to different process requirements.
The PANDA series also has an integrated bypass valve, which allows safe operation at different pressure differentials.
With the PANDA and PUMA series, Busch offers a powerful range of Roots vacuum pumps developed to increase pumping speed and to evacuate vacuum systems quickly. The contact-free rotor technology enables reliable, low-wear gas transport and is particularly suitable for demanding high and medium vacuum applications.
In combination with a suitable backing pump, the PANDA and PUMA boosters can significantly improve the pump performance and evacuation speed of a vacuum system. The oil-free pump chamber supports clean, low-contamination vacuum generation.
Thanks to its robust design and the proven Roots principle, the PANDA and PUMA series offers a reliable, durable and low-maintenance solution for industrial and scientific vacuum applications.
High pumping speed
The Busch PANDA and PUMA series offers high pumping capacities and was developed specifically to boost the performance of existing and new vacuum systems.
Fast evacuation
The powerful booster technology enables fast evacuation of vacuum chambers and can thus help to shorten process times.
Robust design
The rugged construction is designed for industrial requirements and ensures high operational reliability and a long service life.
Operating principle
The Busch PANDA and PUMA series comprises powerful dry-running vacuum boosters developed to increase pumping speed and to speed up the evacuation of vacuum systems. The counter-rotating rotors operate without contact and convey the process gas efficiently through the pump chamber, achieving high pumping speeds with low mechanical wear.
As boosters, PANDA and PUMA pumps are used in combination with a suitable backing pump. This makes it possible to increase the performance of the entire vacuum system, while at the same time supporting fast evacuation and efficient operation.
The dry and oil-free pump chamber prevents contamination of the process gas by lubricants and is therefore particularly suitable for applications with high demands on process purity. The robust design also enables reliable, durable and low-maintenance operation.
The PANDA and PUMA series is suitable for numerous industrial applications that call for high pumping speed, fast evacuation, oil-free operation and reliable vacuum generation.
