Abstract

Basically a vacuum pump is the most essential component of any vacuum system which is accountable to bring into being the required vacuum in the sealed setup, to accomplish a certain process. But for the broad vacuum range, all the vacuums cannot be generated by a single vacuum pump. Consequently, various pumps of distinct types are used to properly generate the vacuum of diverse ranges. Therefore, the selection of suitable vacuum pump or pumps to produce the required vacuum, for a particular vacuum work, is of primary importance. There are many factors that affect the suitable pump selection. In this paper, proper guidelines highlighting key criteria for selecting an appropriate vacuum pump, supportive for proper vacuum production has briefly been discussed that can make the task of pump selection simpler and exact.
