About the series

Features and benefits of the TWISTER S series

The series at a glance

Depending on the version, the pumps offer pumping speeds of 80 to 720 m³/h and ultimate vacuum values down to 0.05 mbar(abs.).

The TWISTER S VSA has rotors with a constant pitch and is particularly suitable for solvent recovery, drying processes and plastics applications. The VSB uses rotors with a stepped pitch and is particularly suited to the chemical and pharmaceutical industries; special ATEX versions are available.

The VSI with variable rotor pitch achieves an ultimate vacuum down to 0.1 mbar(abs.) and was developed for industrial applications without aggressive gases. All variants stand out for their low noise emissions, low operating temperatures, robust shaft seals and simple maintenance.

With the TWISTER S series, Elmo Rietschle offers a powerful range of dry-running screw vacuum pumps developed for clean operation, high reliability and low maintenance effort. The contact-free screw technology allows oil-free vacuum generation and reduces mechanical wear. Thanks to its robust design and efficient dry-running technology, the TWISTER S series is a durable and reliable solution for demanding industrial vacuum applications.

Dry and oil-free

The Elmo Rietschle TWISTER S series operates completely dry and oil-free. The conveyed medium therefore remains free of oil contamination, which allows clean vacuum generation.

Efficient screw technology

The counter-rotating screws allow continuous and efficient compression of the conveyed medium. The contact-free principle supports reliable operation and reduces mechanical wear.

Reliable and low-maintenance

The robust design is intended for continuous industrial use. The low wear and the dry-running technology contribute to long maintenance intervals and high system availability.

Operating principle

The Elmo Rietschle TWISTER S series works according to the principle of dry-running screw vacuum technology. Two counter-rotating screw rotors continuously convey the gas drawn in through the pump chamber and compress it step by step on its way to the outlet. The contact-free mode of operation ensures reliable and efficient operation.

As the TWISTER S series operates dry and oil-free, the conveyed medium does not come into contact with oil or lubricants in the compression chamber. The technology thus allows clean, contamination-free vacuum generation and is particularly suitable for applications with high demands on process purity.

The robust design and the dry-running screw principle allow reliable, durable and low-maintenance operation. The low maintenance effort and the efficient mode of operation make the series an economical solution for industrial vacuum processes.

The TWISTER S series is suitable for numerous industrial applications that require dry, oil-free vacuum, high operational reliability, reliable performance and low maintenance effort.
