Leybold Sogevac SV40 BI Rotary Vane Vacuum Pump 220V Compact Design

The Leybold Sogevac SV40 BI is a compact and robust rotary vane vacuum pump engineered for reliable vacuum generation in both industrial and laboratory settings. Operating at 220V and supporting 50Hz/60Hz frequencies, this pump features an integrated lubrication and gas ballast system to ensure stable vacuum levels and reduce noise emissions, critical for sensitive applications such as bioprocessing, molecular diagnostics, and vacuum packaging.

Key technical details include:

• Compact footprint for versatile installation in constrained laboratory spaces or industrial setups.
• Designed for low and consistent noise levels, enhancing usability in environments requiring noise-sensitive operations like live-cell imaging and biomedical engineering.
• Maintenance-friendly design with accessible service points facilitates extended service intervals and reduced downtime, important in synthetic biology research and biomanufacturing workflows.
• Requires a remote control cable for full operation; the pre-owned unit powers on but is untested without this accessory.
• Weighs approximately 51.71 kg (114 lbs), balancing durability with portability.

This vacuum pump is widely adopted in applications that demand precise vacuum control such as fluorescence analysis, cell culture processing, and gene editing protocols. Its reliability supports molecular cloning workflows and is critical in biopharmaceutical production pipelines where vacuum integrity directly impacts process outcomes. The Leybold Sogevac SV40 BI combines proven vacuum technology with features tailored for modern biotechnology research and industrial use cases.
