2. Vacuum pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_pump

   In the field of oil regeneration and re-refining, vacuum pumps create a low vacuum for oil dehydration and a high vacuum for oil purification. [44] A vacuum may be used to power, or provide assistance to mechanical devices. In hybrid and diesel engine motor vehicles, a pump fitted on the engine (usually on the camshaft) is used to produce a vacuum.

3. Diffusion pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion_pump

   An oil diffusion pump is used to achieve higher vacuum (lower pressure) than is possible by use of positive displacement pumps alone. Although its use has been mainly associated within the high-vacuum range, down to 1 × 10 −9 mbar (1 × 10 −7 Pa), diffusion pumps today can produce pressures approaching 1 × 10 −10 mbar (1 × 10 −8 Pa) when properly used with modern fluids and accessories.

4. Liquid-ring pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-ring_pump

   Single-stage vacuum pumps typically produce vacuum to 35 torr (mm Hg) or 47 millibars (4.7 kPa), and two-stage pumps can produce vacuum to 25 torr, assuming air is being pumped and the ring-liquid is water at 15 °C (59 °F) or less. Dry air and 15 °C sealant-water temperature is the standard performance basis, which most manufacturers use for ...

5. Turbomolecular pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbomolecular_pump

   Turbomolecular pumps must operate at very high speeds, and the heat buildup due to friction imposes design limitations. Some turbomolecular pumps use magnetic bearings to reduce friction and oil contamination. Because the magnetic bearings and the temperature cycles allow for only a limited clearance between rotor and stator, the blades at the ...

6. Roughing pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roughing_pump

   A roughing pump is any vacuum pump (typically mechanical) used to initially evacuate a vacuum system, as a first stage towards achieving high vacuum or ultra high vacuum.The term "roughing pump" derives from the vacuum range it works in, "rough vacuum", above 1x10 −3 torr (0.1 Pa).

7. Vacuum Oil Company - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_Oil_Company

   Vacuum Oil Company was an American oil company known [according to whom?] for their Gargoyle 600-W steam cylinder motor oil. [citation needed] After being taken over by the original Standard Oil Company and then becoming independent again, in 1931 Vacuum Oil merged with the Standard Oil Company of New York to form Socony-Vacuum, later renamed to Mobil and eventually merging with Standard Oil ...
