Equipped with a brushless DC motor, the electric vacuum pump features a contact-free design that extends equipment service life and reduces maintenance frequency. Measuring just Φ32 x 55 mm (excluding protrusions)—smaller than a standard D-cell battery—and weighing approximately 70g, the vacuum pump delivers high-efficiency, space-saving suction with a flow rate of 3.0 L/min and a vacuum pressure of -60 kPa.
We also offer the cartridge pump as an internal component. It allows for easy, tool-free installation and removal (screw mounting is also supported), significantly reducing maintenance time. Furthermore, a vacuum pump module—incorporating a pressure sensor, vacuum release valve, and control board into the cartridge pump—is currently under development. By utilizing a multi-point suction adapter, this system can handle larger or irregularly shaped items.

Applications
1Vacuum Source
Traditional centralized systems—such as conventional compressor-and-ejector setups or massive vacuum pumps—rely on long piping runs to deliver negative pressure to individual grippers. However, this approach leads to low efficiency from piping losses and the risk of an entire line shutting down if the primary source fails. By integrating an electric vacuum pump directly into each device, you can minimize piping losses, achieve energy savings, and decentralize risks during system failures.
2Vacuum Lifters (Suction Lifters)
Vacuum lifters utilize vacuum (negative pressure) to grip and transport heavy, hard-to-handle materials on-site, such as glass, tiles, and timber. A vacuum pump evacuates the air between the suction pad and the object to create a vacuum environment. This allows atmospheric pressure to press the object against the pad, providing a powerful hold for lifting. Our electric vacuum pumps are equipped with brushless DC motors, ensuring an extended operational lifespan.
3Vacuum Suction Gripper (Vacuum Pump Module)
This product can also be used as a vacuum suction gripper. We are developing a vacuum pump module with a detachable "cartridge pump." In conventional systems with built-in vacuum pumps, a pump failure leads to costly and time-consuming replacement of the entire gripper module. Our independent cartridge design enables the pinpoint replacement of the failed pump without changing the main module. This product reduces the frequency of module replacements and maintenance costs.
The detachable "cartridge pump" features tool-free, single-step replacement *1, enabling smooth maintenance without interrupting production lines.Since only the failed cartridge component is discarded, waste and environmental impact are reduced.
The interchangeable suction port adapter can be directly used with suction pads from various manufacturers. Additionally, utilizing the optional multi-point suction adapter allows for handling larger or irregularly shaped products.

FAQ
QAre there any orientation restrictions for installing the pump (e.g., vertical or horizontal)?
A
There are no specific restrictions on the installation orientation. It can be mounted vertically, horizontally, or upside down to fit the available integration area.
Note: Ensure that the tubing does not kink during routing and that the pump is properly secured to prevent vibration from affecting other precision components.
QAre there performance impacts when using the pump at high altitudes?
A
Yes. Because atmospheric pressure decreases at higher altitudes, the achievable vacuum pressure (absolute pressure) and effective flow rate will be lower than at sea level.
Since vacuum pump performance is relative to ambient atmospheric pressure, please account for this performance reduction and set up higher safety standards if you plan to use the pump at altitudes above 1,000m.
QWhat causes increased noise and vibration during pump operation?
A
The primary causes are typically bearing wear due to aging or the end of the diaphragm lifecycle. Replacing the cartridge pump unit is recommended.
Although our product features a long-life design, exceeding the specified service life can lead to increased noise and vibration.
QIs it necessary to install an air filter on the suction side?
A
If the workpiece may carry dust or debris, installing an air filter is strongly recommended to protect the pump and preserve performance.
Debris trapped in the diaphragm or valves reduces vacuum pressure and causes insufficient flow. Installing a compact inline filter between the suction pad and the pump can significantly reduce failure rates.
QIs it possible to customize the pump to achieve our required flow rate and vacuum pressure?
A
Customization beyond standard catalog specifications is available, subject to minimum order quantities (MOQs).
We can propose optimizations tailored to your application, such as adjusting motor speed by changing the windings or modifying materials based on your operating environment. Please contact us with your detailed requirements.
