Q Why does scroll pump system lead to energy-savings?
A

Dry scroll system features not only clean processes but also energy-saving.   Scroll mechanism enables torque fluctuations to be minimized as employing not rotary movement but orbiting movement, and also features lower leakage and high efficiency as several crescent compression areas (pockets) are created during the compression process.

Furthermore, Dry scroll pump is battery friendly as no gears and no gear oil are required as well as Dry Roots Pump.  Scroll pump makes more efficient operation with high effective motor such as IPM motor as it has scroll system with minimal torque fluctuations.

Q Can you deal with cutomized products?
A ANEST IWATA can deal with any customization as customer's request with quick response.  Please do not hesitate to consult our engineers on special specifications such as for tight leakage (higher prevention of leakage), sealing with magnet coupling (No dynamic seal used around atmosphere), high effective motor and inverter (higher energy-savings), high density gas (Also compatible with SF6) and high vacuum unit combined with various turbo molecular pumps.  For more details, please feel free to ask our engineers.

Q Are your vacuum pumps compliant to RoHS?
A ISP and GVS series and DVSL-500C/501C are compliant to RoHS.  Although vacuum pump is essentially exempt from the RoHS regulations, ANEST IWATA actively tackles with environmental issues under consideration for the promotion of green procurement and installation of our vacuum pumps into customers' devices.

Q What is the difference between Oil-free Scroll Vacuum Pumps, oil-sealed rotary pumps and water seal vacuum pumps?
A Oil-free Scroll Vacuum Pumps can always maintain a clean vacuum and working condition since they do not use lube oil nor seal water inside, resulting in no back diffusion of lube oil and seal water.Oil-free vacuum pumps can save oil cost, labor cost of replenishing oil, and industrial waste disposal cost as opposed to oil-sealed vacuum pumps, which requires all of these.In contrast to water seal vacuum pumps, Oil-free pumps can reduce running costs since they do not need water control.Oil-free Scroll Vacuum Pumps are environmentally friendly, economical, and have low maintenance costs.

Q What kind of mechanism the Air Flush is?
A When vacuum pumps sucks moisture or exhaust highly humid vapor, this moisture will be condensed in the pumps. When condensed moisture remains inside pumps, this remaining moisture can cause failure or prevent the pump from reaching ultimate pressure. Air-Flush is the device to exhaust this remaining condensed moisture. Air-Flush operation exhausts remaining condensed moisture and also is effective in recovering ultimate pressure. Air-Flush operation does not influence the change of ultimate pressure. This is in contrast to the existing Gas-ballast mechanism.

Q Is continuous operation possible when the Air-Flush is opened?
A Yes, operation continues even if the Air-Flush is opened. Exhausting sound becomes a bit louder and the sound is generated when vapor flows. We recommend the use of a magnet valve (isolated valve) between the pumps and equipment for safe operation. As for details, please refer to examples of pipe arrangement, “connection to vacuum system” of the instruction manual.

Q Can we change location of Inlet and Outlet?
A You can change the position of ISP-500C by 90 degrees, according to applications. We prepare ISP-500C only for lateral specifications and upward specifications according to customers’ specific applications. When ordering ISP-500C, please specify which specifications you need. (This is not applicable for other models).

Q I would like to ask about maintenance.
A Our Oil-Free Scroll Vacuum Pumps do not need daily Maintenance, but require maintenance every 1 year / 8,000 hours (whichever comes first) and every 2 years / 16,000 hours (whichever comes first). Please check the hour meter attached to the vacuum pump. Standard maintenance time differs according to pump operating conditions. Please ask ANEST IWATA Vacuum Pump Dept. or our distributors for details.

Q I’d like to have it fixed.
A After having informed us or our distributors, send the pump in question to our vacuum pump section. We will quote you a repairing cost. On receipt of your authorization, we will do the necessary maintenance or repair. Such quotation will require about 3 days. The repaired pump will then be sent back to you about 7 days after your acceptance of our quotation and authorization to proceed. During the period of maintenance and repair, we will make a replacement pump available to you. Please ask us, ANEST IWATA Vacuum Pump Dept for details.

Q How is the Voltage Specifications?
A

Regarding electric sources applied to standard ISP series, ISP-90/250C/500C are 100V-230V compliant with single phase motor and ISP-250C/500C/1000 are 200V-460V compliant with three phases motor. Multiplex Voltage is possible for standard models.

How to select model is


Please specify when ordering.
DVSL-500C/501C are 200V-460V compliant with three phases motor.

GVS series come with three phases motor and single voltage (200V with standard model).
