Weight: 27.0 kg (three-phase) or 28.5 kg (single-phase), XL K with motor. Dimensions up to 457 × approx. 250 × up to 192.1 mm (depending on the motor), oil quantity 1.0 l (XL, XL K) or 0.5 l.Use
Becker names packaging and food processing machines as typical areas of use. The pump has a high water vapour tolerance. According to Becker, the oil-lubricated pumps up to 40 m³/h have the lowest installation height in the industry – designed for modern tabletop packaging machines; compared with a 21 m³/h pump of the same size, the U 5.40 is said to evacuate up to 40 % faster.Equipment
- Gas ballast valve
- Non-return valve
- High-efficiency oil separator element
- Freely configurable connection and service openings
- Oil-air cooler for continuous operation down to 300 mbar (version K)
