Solution
Solvent vapor handling for dry screw vacuum pump systems
Solvent vapor handling is a system problem. The pump must be selected together with condensation control, material choice, safety requirements, and recovery goals.
Decision rules
Classify the vapor before choosing the configuration
The same solvent can be simple or risky depending on vapor load, temperature, pressure, and whether liquid returns to the pump. A useful solution starts by separating these cases.
Selection risk
Do not treat solvent vapor like clean dry air
A wrong selection can appear acceptable during early operation and still create later damage through condensate, corrosion, or unsafe electrical assumptions.
RFQ data we need
- Solvent name and concentration
- Gas temperature at pump inlet
- Expected vapor load or process volume
- Target pressure and evacuation time
- Recovery, condenser, or separator requirement
- Explosion-proof or plant safety requirement
