Becker VT4.8 Oil-less Vacuum Pump for Laboratory Applications

The Becker VT4.8 is a robust oil-less vacuum pump designed for dependable vacuum generation in research and biotechnology environments. Operating at 230 V and compatible with 50/60 Hz power frequencies, it consumes between 0.38 to 0.42 kW power, making it efficient for continuous laboratory use.

Key technical features include:

• Maximum vacuum capability of 151 to 158 mbar, suitable for molecular diagnostics and bioprocessing workflows.
• Speed range of 2700 to 3250 min⁻¹, providing consistent suction performance critical in synthetic biology and biomedical engineering applications.
• Inlet capacity of 0.85 to 1 m³/h, supporting moderate vacuum requirements like gene editing setups and fluorescence analysis.
• Oil-less design eliminates contamination risks and maintenance needs, ideal for sterile environments and molecular cloning workflows.
• Integrated silencer and filter reduce operational noise and particulate contamination, increasing convenience in cell imaging and live-cell vacuum applications.

Manufactured in 2022, the VT4.8 vacuum pump is widely adopted in biotechnology research and clinical diagnostics requiring precise vacuum control without oil interference. Its combination of silent operation and filtration makes it essential for biomanufacturing processes and laboratory setups focused on synthetic biology and molecular biology research.
