FORELINE TRAPS

Applications

• Stop Backstreaming
• Trap Condensable vapors

• Protect the Mechanical Pump from dust particles
  
  

• Foreline traps are placed between the deep vacuum pump and the mechanical pump to prevent oil vapor migration from the mechanical pump to the deep vacuum pump. (Backstreaming) The oil is adsorbed in the trap which prevents it from migrating to the process
• Vacuum Level: Typically 1.3x1^-3 mbar (1x10^-3mmHg
• ISO Flange standard: Easy release clamp flanges for use in High Vacuum applications
• Durable Corrosive Resistant Nickel Chrome Finish which prevents Outgassing
• Fully-drawn Housing with Positive Engagement Ring technology

• Long media life span and is very effective in preventing backstreaming and in trapping water and acid vapors (Lewis acids, polar compounds and other acids). Only needs to be recharged approx. every six months.
