Vacuum Pumps for the Pharmaceutical Industry

Vacuum pumps in pharmaceutical industries are extensively used at all levels of production, whether it be bulk manufacturing, intermediate production, or production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API).

The typical applications for which vacuum pumps are widely used are listed below:

Degassing

The process of removing dissolved gasses from liquids or solids is known as degassing. Vacuum pumps help to degass products by reducing pressure.

Vacuum Distillation

Distillation is a process used to purify compounds by separating solvents. Vacuum distillation uses vacuum systems that reduce pressure for purification. Vacuum distillation saves both time and energy.

Crystallization

Crystallization is the process of forming crystals. Supersaturated liquids are first evaporated and then cooled down to form crystals. Vacuum pumps control the rate of evaporation and cooling.

Drying

The process is used to remove moisture from solids by heating them. A vacuum is created for the process to maintain low temperatures. The process is usually used for hygroscopic substances or for substances that are sensitive to heat.

Freeze Drying

Freeze drying is the process of removing water at low temperatures. The process works by first freezing the material, then allowing the water (ice) to sublime, i.e. directly covert into water vapors without going through the liquefaction phase. Pharmaceutical companies use the process for extending the shelf life of the product. A vacuum system is used to remove the moisture.

Sterilization

Sterilization is an effective method used to eliminate microbes and organisms. The most used sterilization methods are Steam Sterilization and Ethylene Oxide (ETO) sterilization. The evacuation of the sterilization chamber is done by a vacuum pump.

Steam Sterilization and Ethylene Oxide Sterilization (ETO)

Steam sterilization is the most popular and most efficient method of sterilization. It uses high temperatures and high pressures to kill all the microorganisms. The autoclave is filled with steam and is allowed to elevate temperature. Once the sterilization occurs, the drying cycle takes place. The vacuum system should be efficient enough to carry out the entire process.

Ethylene oxide (ETO) sterilization is a very cost-effective method of sterilization. It is a low-temperature sterilization method. The process requires either 100% ethylene oxide or a premix blend ethylene oxide and an inert gas. The process of using 100 % ethylene oxide requires a vacuum.

The first stage is preconditioning in which temperature and humidity of the load should be raised. The load is then transferred to a sterilization chamber where a vacuum is pulled to remove the air. The conditioning phase takes place at optimum humidity. ETO is then introduced in the chamber and is allowed to soak into the load until the sterility assurance level is achieved. ETO is then removed through vacuums and washes.

The VCX Series is constructed in modular construction of compartments. Pumping and gear chambers are separated by using labyrinth seals. As two Hook and claw rotate in opposite direction, the air will be sucked in the pumping chamber, compressed and discharged under pressure.

In gear chamber, two gears for synchronizing of claws rotation will be placed with appropriate oil lubrication. A built-in anti-suck back valve installed in inlet flange will prevent the air from flowing back into the vacuum chamber when the pump is shutdown. The pumps are directly driven by a flanged motor via coupling.

Vacuum Pumps for Water and Wastewater Management

Vacuum Sewage Systems

Sewage systems treat wastewater to make it reusable. These treatment plants use vacuum pumps for sending the sewage water to the facility. Vacuum pumps create negative pressure levels in the required region, which enables the sewage water to flow in that direction. In sewage systems, the wastewater is treated with multiple chemicals. Along with those chemicals, the treatment plant also requires a constant flow of oxygen, which is enabled by a powerful blower system. Blowers transport the separated dirt as well.

Vacuum Pumps for Water Systems

Vacuum pumps are used in water systems that transfer this liquid from one point to another. Vacuum pumps alter the pressure levels which enable transportation of water. You would need your pump to maintain steady pressure levels for the proper flow of water. Many enterprises require water systems for a variety of purposes.

Liquid Ring Vacuum Pump: Working Principle

There are many liquid ring vacuum pump manufacturers in India. So you won���t have to put much effort into getting a pump for your operation.

However, you should know how this pump works to understand it properly. Otherwise, you might end up making a big mistake and spending your money on the wrong product.

What are Liquid Ring Vacuum Pumps?

Liquid ring vacuum pumps find applications in many industries. In these pumps, the impeller creates a turbulent ring of liquid, which creates a vacuum between the liquid and the impeller.

That’s why these pumps are called ‘liquid ring pumps’.

They are available in multiple designs and the best one depends on the requirements of the operation. They are quite popular in the food, beverages, marine, packaging, and textile industry.

Because they use water or other safe liquids as a sealant, they are compatible with many settings and requirements.

What is their Working Principle?

A liquid ring vacuum pump uses an impeller and a liquid sealant for creating a vacuum. Water is the most common liquid sealant for this pump. However, a mixture of water and methanol is also a popular choice apart from oil.

In a liquid ring pump, the impeller is situated near the center of the centerline of the pump. There are two ports in a pump, one is for discharge and the other is for suction.

As the impeller rotates, it also moves the liquid along with it. As the liquid starts moving at a high pace, a small space is left between the liquid and the casing center.

The liquid forms a ring along the lining and space between the liquid and the center creates a vacuum in the pump. Because of the created vacuum, vapors start flowing in through the inlet port.

 The impeller cell travels to the discharge port while the sealant liquid gets back to the center of the impeller. This way the trapped gases remain compressed.

Conclusion

We hope we clarified the topic for you. When you plan to buy a liquid ring vacuum pump, make sure that you contact reputed vacuum pump manufacturers in India.

This way you won’t have to worry about the quality of the product you receive.

The rotor is eccentrically positioned in the cylinder and has the slots for vane sliding. The centrifugal forces when rotates push the vanes towards wall of the cylinder through the slots of the rotor. The gas will be sucked in through a built-in anti suck back valve that prevents the pump from rotating backward at standstill, and goes into the cylinder. The gas will be compressed and pushed out through the exhaust opening located between the pumps housing and oil sump. The oil will be fed into the pump module from the oil sump for sealing and lubrication by differential pressure between pump module and oil sump, and will be collected through the oil separator in the upper part of the oil sump. The oil will be dropped to the lower part of the oil sump though the check valve or will be drawn to the pump module for re-circulation.

Why Lobe Blower Needs Acoustic Enclosure?

The acoustic enclosure for lobe blower has two functions: one is is to control the noise level of installation and another to protect the blower and its instrumentation from dust/ rain/wind in outdoor installations, As you are aware, a blower may produce a loud noise during its operation. In case of some installations, especially in environment compliant projects, there is a strict limitation in noise level, commonly restricted to under 85db(A).

Where there is a requirement for large displacement volumes, high differential pressure or high rpm blowers, the noise level may go above 85 dB(A), in these cases, the acoustic enclosure is mandatory .

The acoustic enclosure is broadly divided in to three major components:

The External Enclosure ,

Noise dampening material to reduce the sound level;

The heat dissipation arrangement such as exhaust fans or Air Conditioning in some cases.

With proper design of Acoustic Enclosure, the noise level can be reduced to desired permissible limits.

Acoustic Enclosures improve aesthetics as well as safety. With the help of the acoustic enclosures , the total package including the gauges , drives , valves etc. are enclosed reducing the risk of injury while providing an aesthetically enhanced product to the customer .

Blower Bearing Life

Basics of Bearing Life: L10= (C/P)10/3 x a x106/60 ——- n

L10 estimated bearing life in hours; estimated as the 90% reliability hours C = radial rating of the bearing P = radial load on the bearing a = life adjustment factor; ex: oil viscosity, oil quality, etc. n = rotational speed in rev/min Doubling load reduces life to one tenth Doubling speed reduces life by one half

Drive Alignment and Belt Tension: From this we can see that bearing loading is very important. The engineer has done the calculations and sizing are done for defined conditions, but it is important that the customer assures that with belt tension and drive alignment, the design loads are not exceeded. Bearing life is reduced substantially when these are not maintained within design limits (recommendations are in the service manual). How often should the oil be changed? It depends on: • Oil type and viscosity • Operating environment • Oil temperature • Etc.

Some studies have found that fatigue life of ball bearings is reduced 48% when mineral oil lubricant is contaminated with just .002% water. When the water was increased to 6% the bearing life was reduced by 83%. With steam, condensable loads and water injection this should watched closely. Blower vents play an important part in mechanical seal durability and should be kept free of liquids by draining often.

The only sure method is to use oil sampling and change as indicated. Oil samples should be taken immediately after shutting down the blower. This assures accurate sampling of all solids in the oil. Also, a fresh sample of oil should be submitted on the initial test that will be used as a base line for all future tests. Three elements normally are reported: oil health, contaminants and wear metals.

Detecting a Failure: Bearing failures can occur at very inconvenient times and can propagate a lot of collateral damage in the failure process (gears, housings, rotors, etc.). SPM’s (shock pulse monitors) are commonly used to detect bearing failures. With blowers, this detection is not as simple as other equipment as the blower generates a strong discharge pulse which can cause false triggers in the alarm. These can be overcome with software and adjusting alarm set points when the system is new and in good condition. Changing the blower discharge pressure will impact the vibration level and will probably require resetting the alarms.

Selecting an Oil: Oil viscosity and grade should always be selected per the manufactures recommendation. Using lighter oil will reduce gear and bearing life while running heavier oils will increase blower oil temperature and reduce gear life.

Synthetic vs Mineral: Synthetic even though more expensive than mineral oil is recommended in most applications. It advantages include broader viscosity control with temperature changes, better elevated temperature lubrication and longer service life. Also, more resistant the water contamination.

Oil Cooling: Consider this when discharge temperatures are above 250F. Reducing oil operating temperature will extend oil life and therefore bearing life. Oil temperature should be maintained between 180F and 200F. Cooling coils are available if the discharge temp exceeds 250F.

Oil Level: Always run the blower at the correct oil level. Too much oil is just as bad as too little. Too much oil increases the load on the gears and will likely result in a gear failure. Too little will result in a lubrication failure (failed bearings and gears). Only check the oil when the blower is shut off. The levels are not accurate when it is running.
