SIHI Boost UltraPLUS dry-running vacuum pumps from Flowserve offer significant opportunities for vacuum processes to increase the throughput of existing production tools, like roots-type blowers, reducing production costs per item, saving energy and creating a smaller footprint. Replacing existing roots-type blower systems with SIHI Boost UltraPLUS units can enable existing production equipment to achieve 20% shorter pump-downtime while needing only half of the backing pump capacity compared to the original SIHI boost pumps. This can result in 50% less energy consumption compared to standard vacuum systems.
